  1. After a beautiful day so far, its just gone gray and started to rain.

    21.4C

    60% RH

    1024mb

    Blobs now appeared on the 5 min radar. Much better than having to wait for it to appear on the met office's free radar! :drinks:

  2. Just a reminder to switch it on if you've forgot. (it started 10 mins late so you havn't missed anything)

    DOCUMENTARY: Britain's Worst Weather

    On: Channel 4 (4)

    Date: Saturday 3rd February 2007 (53 minutes left)

    Time: 20:05 to 21:05 (1 hour long)

    Flood.

    Dr Nick Middleton of Oxford University investigates some of Britain's most extreme weather conditions, to find out how they are caused, and why they are so dangerous. There is no question that flooding can be dangerously destructive and, as global temperatures and sea levels continue to rise, Dr Middleton investigates how the level of risk is increasing.

  3. Been talking to my parents and I they havn't seen anything like what they saw in Burnley yesterday for quite a while. A lot of the garden is damaged, but trees had fallen on roads, corrugated roofs came off factories and the away stand at Burnley has been damaged forcing Norwich fans to sit with Burnley fans in one of the home stands tomorrow.

    Weather wasn't that bad in Plymouth although some of the waves hitting the Hoe were much higher than me, so I kept my distance.

  4. Maybe it's not clear.

    There's a low pressure at 991 to the east of Greenland, the isobars don't particularly surround it as High pressure is dominating to the west of spain.

    South of the low is a trough which leads to another low between 1000 and 1004. This has the warm and cold fronts, is it possible two name these different types of low?

    This is six hours before on the METO chart. Maybe it's just the way the yanks interpreted it?

  5. Very posh wysiwyg editor.

    Anyway, are there specific names for a pressure system, specifically low although I assume it'll just be adding cyclone to the end, when the isobars surround the low pressure or when it doesn't. Not sure if that makes sense but I've a chart in front of me with your typical cold and warm fronts with an L where the fronts meet and was wondering if there's a scientific word for this type of low and if so are their any other words for other types of low?
