skies are getting seriously weird to my south-east.. seeing the start of mamatus formations , and some really weird rotational elements ( at slow level..) no wind , no thunder, no lightning.. but the cloud formations are definitely getting very odd - and it's streaming from the south-east of me ( in hampshire)

no mamatus here yet in Basingstoke, central Hampshire, but the skies to the south-east are definitely getting ominous... starting to see undulating "waves" in the cloud formations to the SE .. not sure what the technical term for them is.. - it's like a wave in the sky.. is there a technical term for that kind of formation?

Southwest & Central Southern England Regional Discussion
sabrewulf replied to Jane Louise's topic in Regional
just checked the radar on my weatherpro app. it's heading our way - going in the south-east direction, coming from the arctic. currently here in hampshire it's mightily cold, with a completely white sky. will be surprised if we DONT get a few flakes this evening -
Convective / Storm Chat And Discussion
sabrewulf replied to Coast's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Rumbles of thunder and heavy rain here in north London. There has been bursts of intensely heavy rain all afternoon. -
It has greyed over here in Basingstoke. Fingers crossed for some thunderstorms this evening. The band of radar heading north from the channel looks ferocious

as a kid growing up in the 70s/80s and with a big interest in astronomy, it was guaranteed that anytime you tried to project your telescopic image of the sun onto a white piece of paper, you would see sunspots. They were so common that this method of viewing them was in every kids book on astronomy. And I used to keep a daily sunspot diary , with my own sketches and observations. I can confirm that no sunspots is extremely unusual.

its started here in basingstoke. very heavy rain.

South West England Cold Spell Discussion
sabrewulf replied to J10's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
sorry if this is in the wrong place - but worth pointing out: "The extreme negative dip of the Arctic Oscillation Index in December 2009 was the lowest monthly value observed for the past six decades." that's from NASA: http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=42237 -
South West England Cold Spell Discussion
sabrewulf replied to Methuselah's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
let me guess - that would be the Irish lass Lisa Burke http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Burke -
correct me if i'm wrong, but it does look like that - a west MCS heading for hampshire/berkshire, and an east MCS for kent/london/essex http://www.sat24.com/gb

thanks for the write up. appreciated. sounds like a monster headling my way , hopefully.
-
not related to the current storm - but interesting... look at the bay of biscay, west of france in this meteox loop http://www.meteox.nl/h.aspx?r=&jaar=-3...;soort=satradar woaah...
-
do you need to tune to specific frequencies?
-
why would the moon appear orange at this time of night? most unusual.
-
it might expand and intensify once it crosses the channel and encounters the warmer land. (am i right?)
-
hmm.. you might be right http://www.sat24.com/gb i might be wrong - but is that some sort of rotation developing in the western channel storm?
-
zoomed channel view http://www.meteox.co.uk/gmapstatic.aspx?zo...x=217&y=273 wow - that storm is a big one. and is heading my way - hopefully!
