    Yeah… Time for me to throw the towel in on this one. Another bust. *sigh*
     

    Anyway… Before I sign off, (until the next wild goose storm chase) here are the latest rainfall radar and lightning maps, in the hope that they help some other members. ??
     

    But for now, it’s over and out from Storm Starved in North East Wales.

    Well this is a pile of poo so far. Just peeing with rain. I’m getting the dreaded feeling now I usually get round here and not going to get a storm now  

    Evening @SarahWxm

    Sadly I have to agree with you.

    As @Weather-history has just said, the needle on the ‘bust-o-meter’ has sprung into life.

    Anyway… This is the current state of play with the rainfall radar and an extremely quiet lightning map.

    I’m still hoping that something builds afterwards… Although that hope is fading.

  3. And another day in the Eye of Sauron’s dissecting gaze. ☀️

    Still… I take comfort from the fact that the sun is in the sky for four seconds less than yesterday, (hey it’s a start!), and also this beautiful cooling gentle autumnal mist just hanging in the air this morning.

    Signs of autumn number one? ?

  4. 10:13 on Tuesday the 21st of June 2021, and the summer solstice has just occurred! ☀️
    Yes folks, the pendulum has finally reached the end of its stroke! ⌛
    Today we have got nine hours and twenty seven minutes more daylight than we had back in December! 

    As a sufferer of summer S.A.D. I for one look forward shortening days, gathering mists, ripening fruits, and look forward to welcoming the increasing darkness; like an old friend returning. ?
    I’m fully aware that summer has still got one or two nasty tricks up it’s sleeve, but this is an important milestone/turning point that needs celebrating.

    The summer sun is fading as the year grows oldAnd darker days are drawing near…

  5. Sooooo… This is the current temperature here in North East Wales. ?

    … And this is after driving home for about half an hour! ?

    I just hope and pray that this goes ‘BANG’ big time! Otherwise it’s a lot of completely unnecessary suffering, with no pay back whatsoever! ?⛈??

  6. Hello everyone. 
    Time for a look into the crystal ball that are the CFS v2 four weekly anomalies.......

    Week 1 - 10th to the 16th June: High pressure to our south over Spain and France, low pressure up to our northwest... This puts us in a south westerly airflow, certainly not cold, but I think we can expect spells of rain at times... Pretty much what we've had so far really. 

    Week 2 - 17th June to the 23rd June: A mid Atlantic ridge of high pressure, meanwhile low pressure, over us, but slightly to the east could leave us in a cool(er) and showery air flow. I'm not saying a total wash out, just classic European summer monsoon.

    Week 3 - 24th to the 30th June: Rinse and repeat of week two by the looks of it!

    Week 4 - 1st to the 7th July: The UK looks to be under the influence of high pressure! But looking at the positioning of the high it could leave us with a cooler, northerly flow. Which at this time of year should mean very pleasant, usable days, without being cooked alive. 

    Well that's my interpretation of these charts anyway.  ?️

    As ever this is the CFS, and the weather will do, whatever the weather will do!

  7. Hello everyone. 

    Time for my quick look at the CFS v2 four weekly anomaly charts, just to see if they can help other out a little bit...

    Week 1 - 5th to the 11th June: High pressure is to our south over Spain and Portugal, low pressure out to the west of Ireland... Pretty much what's forecast for this coming week. Wet and potentially wind at times, but with sunny intervals in between the bands of rain. 

    Week 2 - 12th to the 18th June: The low pressure out to our west, meanwhile the high pressure to our south move eastwards into main land Europe. Looking at this, I'm gonna say that an even slightly more unsettled week than this one is lurking on the horizon. 

    Week 3 -  19th to the 25th June: High pressure out to our west in the Atlantic, and high pressure out to our east over central Europe... Nothing showing over us here in the UK, but that could be trough of low(er) pressure... I think we need to see how this one progresses.

    Week 4 - 26th June to the 2nd July: High pressure still out to our west, low pressure over Scandinavia, to me this would put us in a northerly air flow. Certainly not a wash out, but no heatwave either.

    So there you go... Sorry if that's not what people want to se or hear, but that's what the charts are showing.?️

    I'll pop back in a few days to see what's changed.

  8. At the risk of being torn limb from limb and then battered to death with the soggy ends, I have to say that as a summer S.A.D. sufferer, I found it very pleasant to wake up this morning to grey skies and drizzle, and then the sight of the mist and hill fog starting to roll in as I took the dog for a walk at 05:00 this morning cheered up my cold, dark, miserable heart up no end. ?️☔?️

    ... And before anyone starts at me, I haven't posted this to troll anyone, just merely stating a personal opinion.
