  1. Hi, just wondering why the Ecm is very late uploading today,  and why isn't it's runs complete by 8 GMT time and 9 bst time as it's always over running and never finished on time . And I've also found that there are missing charts as you flick through the Ecm......Thanks. ..☺

  2.  richie3846  it's a long time since I recorded only 7c/45f at this time of year as a maximum, so yes it's more exceptional to the norm,  not unprecedented ,yes  ,but doesn't happen every year ,yes April is a fickle month. April 2008 for instance had a good four inches of snow here ,that was about early mid April time , came overnight and was all gone by mid afternoon!  And yes the day it snowed like that it reached 12c/54f . But todays cold and damp greyness puts more of an exceptional feel to this time in April.......😨

  3.  richie3846 to be honest, it's worse than a January day ,many of them warmer than now, being outside in this is rubbish anytime of year, but if it were a January day ,you would except it as being what it is for the time of year, but late April ,your expectations are a lot higher ,than what they are in January, 7c this time of year stinks knowing that it should be at least twice that just to get something close to an average temperature! 😩

  4. Well ,7.2c here, overcast with light patchy rain. It has to be said that temperature of 7.2 c for a max temperature which is likely to be the high today here ,unless the sun pops out later ,is not a record low for a maximum  daytime temperature for late April , but not far off!,,,!😨😩 Had warmer days in the winter😂

  5.  alexjclark to be honest,  I always look at the synoptic charts like the gfs/ecm , UKV  chart viewer.  I don't use weather apps , because there a waste of time and pay little if any attention to tv forecasts etc. If I would want a precip forecast say for instance for a couple days ahead ,I would use the UKV chart viewer.  It goes to two days ahead,  and the its 03z and 15z runs go to five days  ahead. It's high resolution, but sometimes like all other models ,woefully wrong, but I think it's the best we have got ......!Anyway ,hope that helps ☺

  6.  alexjclark it looks at the moment a very sketchy forecast ,because models have not got a handling on the develop of low pressure, IE, exact position and how deep the low pressure will be! Looks to be showery rather than frontal rain, but to be honest,  best you can do is keep an eye on the developing situation every day this week ,could well be that we get a lot of dry weather ,rather than a washout, ! ☺ Best of luck. ...!

    . Meanwhile a large high develops over mainland Europe bringing most of the continent a early heatwave. Let's hope this isn't the pattern for summer.

    Really can't see what you mean by that ! Looks changeable for southwestern parts in picticular in the next ten days, and even stretching ahead in the silly time frame of gfs, no picticular settled spell for southern Europe.  Anyway ,with northern blocking still persistent and showing up right through the time frames,  can't see any thing too hot for Europe at the moment. The gfs/ecm shows low pressure influencing the uk next weekend,  but the ecm has much more of a flabby low compared to the gfs , hope there both wrong and we don't get a direct hit !

  8. Looking forward to some nice sun surprises the weekend. Had enough of this permi-cloud now. Even if it’s not raining it’s virtually cloudy all the time! I don’t want wall to wall sunshine but a 50% chance of sunshine through the day will help lift the gloom on peoples faces 😊

  9. Northern blocking ,isn't going to fade anytime soon according to the 00z gfs even into the start of May! Looks like Iberia and North Africa are going to take the brunt of heavy cold rains and very surpressed temperatures.  In fact of talking record highs for Iberia ,we could be talking of record lows of temperatures and rainfall  for the time of year.......😰😨😦  Although !I hate the term "records "as it's all happened before ,long before man started noting weather data...☺

  10. Felt like January today out of the sun and in the wind. In fact it feels colder now than it has done all Winter! The sun is strong now ,so get some shelter in a suntrap and it feels like heaven,  but once that sun goes down tonight , Jack Frost will be out and about😨
