  1. Current conditions

    Currently cloudy with a light rain.

    Temperature: 6.7c.

    Dew point: 4.8c.

    Max temperature: 6.9c

    Min Temperature: 4.9c

    Wind Speed: 0mph

    Wind Gust: 4mph

    Expecting a frost tonight if the cloud clears away hopefully.

  2. can someone explain what equinox is

    When it officially becomes autumn or spring etc. It is usually worked out by the numbers of sunlight hours or the sun angle like on this one everywhere in the world on that day will have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night.

  3. yes but in scientific terms if the gulf stream was to really weaken or stall, is greenland supposed to warm up because ssts are quite warm there, which is still good for us either way. Like with no gulf stream, you can easily say we would go into a massive change of climate, but would it mean greenland gets warmer weather or colder weather??? because that would explain the ssts up there.

    We'd still have a crap winter because we are near the atlantic and we are an island.

  4. No I disagree there for England, Don't forget Wales and Scotland now :p

    We can have very cold weather in February and March. And although things start slowing down in August it's hardly autumnal either, yes last week or so of august this year Was, but I think we have it just about right in this country.

    Yeah inoo sure we were 24c yesterday and thats september which supposed to be near autumn, though its 15c today... whens its ever going to get cold, i see the gfs is warmer now than in august, this is starting to worry me.closedeyes.gif

  5. Was expecting like 1.3c but only got 2.7c because the temp stayed at that for a couple of hours last night which was obvious when looking at ballykelly which got down to only 4.9c which is awful considering we were at 5c at 1am! Typical! Back to hell hole city tomorrow NOOOO

  6. Currently 4.9c and chilly ballykelly was 7.1c 40 minutes ago I'd imagine it's lower now we might just scrape an air frost here with luck hopefully ballykelly gets low too so it can be official, but knowing my luck it'll rise in ballykelly... Mm would really love to wake to an air frost with lovely White fields or even any frost mmm but it's that long.

  7. Well we have a thick white frost on the grass here which i've never ever seen in august. Currently 1.2 degrees :lol: possibly one of the coldest august nights on record here? it tonight will be colder again then records will be broken around here. Looking at the metofice Trawsgoed at 2.5 is the coldest anywhere in the Uk. Then we have sennybridge at 3.2 and Pembrey sands(right by the sea) at 3.6 or 3.7 i cant remeber. That is very low for Pembrey sands at this time of year especially.

    No somewhere in wales got 1.8c , i think it was that sennybridge place, and me i got 6c after cloud and wind staayed all night, it better be cold tonight!

  8. Just seen the latest bbc weather forecast and the chap said there that there could be some snow falling over the highest peaks of Scotland this morning???!!!

    Surely the 850's are nowhere near cold enough yet for that?

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/

    The 0c isotherm is only about 200m above the peaks, so its cold enough to snow.. plus the last time i checked the 850phas where below 0c all over scotland , northern ireland and northern england.

    Currently 12.3c and windy.

    Sunshine out in force, humidity of 67% and am expecting a possible frost tonight if the winds calm down.

  9. Looks like Sunday night could be a cold one for those in Western areas, would not be surprised if rural parts of Northern Ireland and Wales record there first visable grass frost by Monday morning.

    Monday night looks like a cold night(for the time of year!) so it will be interesting what temperature readings we record in the next couple of nights. :D

    Aye with these low maxes its very possible, when you say visible do you mean like winter when everything is white? Would you not need minus for that, i'm down for 2c min and it usually beats that so you might be right but no doubt it'll be downgraded..closedeyes.gif i had 2c the other night, no frost though, thats always why i've wondered why people have gotten a frost at that temperature!

  10. Similar temps here hopefully I get one will be up at 6:30!! Would love too see frost again ihope ballykelly gets too six degrees now so we can be official .. Btw is air frost the coldest frost I.e grass frost or ground frost etc?

  11. Dropped to just 3C in both Claremorris and Ballyhaise, so getting ever closer!

    Aye i seen that, castlederg goto 3.8c.. got too 5c here last night as the wind had kept the temp up at about 10c right upto 2am and then it plummeted it was a pity that the temperature didn't drop earlier... i see the gfs has -0c down for ni next tuesday i hope so!!? This autumn is coming far earlier have been having 14/15c maxes for about 1.5 months now.

  12. Yes every time i get excited for snow i either wake up with nothing, a dusting of crap or drizzle and a foot of snow above me..closedeyes.gif This winter was awfull, like half a degree from snow and everytime it left it got too like -5c that night... i was expecting loads of snow because of the cold but it either rose a degree or the snow skirted around me or it was light crap, i was so sick of people right beside the sea or wayy south of me getting more snow than meclosedeyes.gifclosedeyes.gif i really hate it when that happens especially when they never shut up about it... and BRAG about it.
