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!

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.

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.

Loud clap of thunder just after 1pm today. (Burnley not Plymouth)

Secondary low could be a way of describing it I suppose.

Just wait until theres a few snowflakes Essan. That's when the real trouble starts for London, the motorways will grind to a halt! :blink:

As I said on UKWW, all we need now if for tomorrows newspaper front pages to be "London hit by MINI tornado! *bangs head on wall*
:blink:

Now raining at the site of tornado with lightning.

sky are calling it an elephant trunk - is it a competition to dumb things down?

Nick managed to edit my schoolboy error. I've found some sort of chart and tried to explain it again above.

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?

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?

You do know that the Isle of Man has its own met office and has nothing to do with the British one? It's the same for the channel islands and any other crown dependency.

Did have a thunderstorm last night at 3ish. I think the vids are in the wet and windy thread

For those in the south west there's a report on flooding in Dorset from last nights downpour where donkeys and horses had to be rescued from a holiday park.

Weathers been great here. Very misty in the sound though. Been to the South Hams today and in one of the bays, the water appeared to be steaming.
I was parked up at the other side and actually felt the difference on the car park, the nearest side to the cliff was warm and muggy, the other side was really cold and damp.
