    Been another mild day but at least we saw a bit more sun today compared to the rest of the week. Shows how mild it is as grass still growing and bulbs have popped up over ;last 2 weeks. Looks like another mild week for SE although temps may drop a little as week progresses but still above average. Think week commencing 14th Dec may give us more seasonal temps although from my viewing of models can't see a cold spell showing up anytime soon :sorry:. Wind is really getting up again and gusts of 50mph forecast for tomorrow so stay safe everyone. Mind you they are going to really suffer in Northern England and Scotland with some substantial rain so we are the lucky ones down here !!     

    Agreed , we won't get anything like up the north. Of the country but I'm surprised to hear some quite heavy gusts. I wasn't expecting anything at all tonight.

    Wind starting to pick up here in Essex, doesn't anyone think that the Met Office have been a little bit casual with not issuing warnings for southern parts?.. considering most of the forecast suggest gusts of at least the 40-50mph range seem probable!  Usually when winds of that strength have been forecast before they've put Yellow Warnings out. At least a small crumb of comfort is that it appears like it'll stay relatively dry here compared to up north where they're getting all that rain.

    Yeah... starting to pick up here also. .... ive just noticed it gusty outside the last ten minutes. You think we could reach a 50 mph gust down south Adam?

  3. I don't really get what all the excitement is for us lot in the south east this weekend... yeah ok it will be nice to see some falling snow but I won't get excited about it... A good Atlantic storm like Barney the other night though? Oh yeah I loved it :)... But don't get me wrong, if the snow really starts to fall, or even better it turns into a blizzard here in the south at some point this winter I will be going crazy...lol. It will be great to get a good depth of lying snow this winter... enough so that the kids get a day off school. These days are the ones that count. ;)

  4. In the UK every winter it's prety likely that we'll see some flurries, a few flakes, some lying snow for a few hours before it melts :( ... boring!

    I am really hoping we will see snow that will lay and stay for at least a couple of days so we can enjoy building snow men and using a sleigh this year :) Does this possible snow in November guarantee we'll get a nice covering in the south east to enjoy for a few days this coming winter? No.. because weather here is so unpredictable.

  5. And big upgrade on the GFS 18z! LP slightly further East and the cold air digging in further South and East, more PPN too.

    Happy days... :-)

    More PPN?! ... I have to say, I'm really not that excited about a few flakes of snow falling from the sky although it would be nice to see.

    A dusting? :/ ... If it only lasted an hour or two on the ground before melting what's exciting about that? I guess I'm always gonna be an extreme weather chick. I will look forward to the day when I see at least a good 5 inches of snow on the ground again .... nice fat flakes falling from the sky or better yet, BLIZZARDS!! ;) ... Until then it will be just ... nice/Okay/Meh to me when I watch a few measly flakes. I will continue to watch the charts however, and get hopeful that maybe we will see a few cm's. I know that won't be likely though ... lol :)
