typical band cleared south, and light snow behind it temp was 3.8c 20mins ago now 1.1 !!!
-
rain band broken up by the time the polar air undercuts it will have cleared here
-
very heavy rain here, i knew there would be no snow, i just travelled form kendal to workington (65 miles) with only sleet/snow on shap and rain elsewhere maybe next time eh.......
-
mean speeds severe gale 9 on the cumbrian coast, explains the damage around here now defo the windiest day for along time...quite dry though but it is not safe out just now
-
extremely windy here now, cement has been blown from my roof not sure where form but im not going to look yet!
-
very windy here, windiest it has been over the last week, difficulty walking or standing up 7.8c with cloud cover and dry
i have been watching out of my window and the chinmey on the house opposite has just blown off not a huge one and smashed on there conservatory it is very serious at the moment...
-
becoming very gusty here, expecting the strongest winds between 9-12, again netweather nailed it with 70+mph gusts forecast, met o well
-
gfs 18z run still going for a quite a severe storm tomorrow with a very tight pressure gradient on its southern flank, coming across northern ireland into south west scotland and over to northern england with gusts around 70-75mph possible could be some damage..
rob mcelwee never mentioned any wind tomorrow really strange maybe the gfs has over cooked it as usual ??
plus met office no mention of warnings for wind
-
stormy is the word to sum up the present conditions, wind averaging 37-40mph for the last few hours and gusts between 55-65mph.
its 8c and the rain thankfully has stayed north of cumbria for the moment wrapped round the low..
-
wednesday the next day to watch, if the gfs keeps this idea we will be looking at quite a dangerous storm system only 48 hours to go downgrade likely? well it cant upgrade or there will be another gfs hurricane which never comes off...
im off work for a week after tuesday interesting first day off wednesday!!
todays storm had a slight downgrade by the gfs on its 18z run from the 12z run, never the less it is very windy here with force 8 mean speeds on the coast and gusts 55-65mph noisy night for sleeping
-
very windy here now, the roof is creaking and the chimmney is screaming in the gusts nasty night...
tuesday into wednesday is more like it a powerful atlantic storm, giving gusts 70-80mph possible 90mph but thats a few days away yet
-
James-why don't you read their warnings page-it mentions gusts to 70mph they have a flash for N Ireland rainfall.
I complain if they get it wrong and that as an ex forecaster with them but a bit of credit when its valid would not go amiss.
as to our own Alert-its about right-winds as I said last night could be tweaked 5-10mph for the more exposed parts.
Currently I'm watching how the pressure changes affect the low-IF it seems necessary I'll amend our alert?
sorry john, just read there updated warnings for cumbria 60mph gusts and in excess of 70mph on exposeds coasts
-
metcheck updated severe weather warning, severe gales up to 75mph gusts and squally showers, hazardous conditions and further flooding
bellmullet gust at 10z 83mph
met office?! dear me....
-
wind is picking up now getting quite gusty, 8.7c looking very stormy out to sea with waves building dry in between showers
-
met eireann severe weather warning gusts of 100-130kmh (60-80mph) with storm 10 winds in coastal waters
-
vicious looking storm now moving towards us, i thought bellmullet would be alot windier at present but i think the storm is just going to be moving over ireland over the next few hours, gusts touching 60mph over western ireland now.
gfs 00z has kept the intensity of the storm of not slightly more intense. expect very heavy hail and thunder showers with this system and squally gusts over 70mph with damage, we dont need anymore rain here in cumbria and its not looking good and with the trees sitting in saturated ground with severe gales, not a good combination....
-
met office have max mean winds for my town at 43mph and gusts in the afternoon 70mph (68mph) (town forecasts) so severe gales are being forecast, and yet they have no mention of it, quite fantastic satellite images now off the west of ireland
-
weatheronline mentioning 70-80mph gusts and metcheck mention 75mph, wheres the met office at with this? they are supposed to be doing us a 'service'
-
latest from Icelandic met office satellite

angry looking off ireland right now, interesting to see wind gusts over western ireland as storm approaches irish met going for 100-120kmh gusts
-
60mph capel curig
70mph aberdaron
could be quite a wind event this storm, warnings are poor
-
Yep. Lack of visible warnings dire.
expecting met office to issue one soon?! metcheck have severe warning about further rainfall and also this at the end more like it.
In addition to this, gales or severe gales gusting up to 75mph will affect Ireland and areas adjacent to the Irish Sea during Sunday.
-
just had a thunderstorm go through, two flashes of lightning and very heavy rain, its 8c and a strong southerly wind.
wow ! had a gust of 42.2mph about 20.20 tonight, coincided with a blip in the pressure and a 3 c drop in temp and some rain !
now back to 15-20mph wind
i bet you will be recording some strong gusts tomorrow gfs going for 85km/h mean speeds near isle of man
-
gfs 18z run showing a potent low moving west across us during sunday and no doubt damaging winds for some, northern ireland, southern scotland, north west england and wales, wouldnt be surprised to see exposed locations reporting gusts in excess of 70mph
and not really a warning to state the wind strength as yet.
vicious looking storm winding up now, sting jet happening?
-
the met office did mention it in the advisory for sunday it will become very windy with 60mph gusts, there forecast for my town has mean speeds of 42mph and gusts 60-65mph and interesting sunday coming up, and more heavy showers for flood hit areas up here
the environment agency have said in the last half hour river levels are rising again.

well we had very heavy rain, temp reached 3.8c and when it cleared south turned to very light snow behind and the temp fell 2.7 degrees to 1c in about 15 mins!! hope we will see some snow tomorrow its looking good for organised bands to crop up in this situation
