good idea :] i think i'll do the same XD [but no way am i getting out of bed unless theres a gale coming through my open window!]

Is this as stormy as it going to get in Southern/ SE England because it only feels fairy windy, my hopes had probably got up too high:p- im confused as to weather its going to get more windy tonight/ tommorow, stay the same or die down? I think we had bigger gusts earlier. doesn't feel like theirs tornado risks atm anyway.

id say now there was a slight risk of it getting that bad, but i dont quite know exactly what im on about > afterall in 87 120mph gusts were recorded in kent i think.... i seriously doubt we'll be getting anything much above 80mph, but i dont wanna be the one to do the Micheal Fish thing!

Wow ive never seen moderate risk used before, only slight! Moderate chance over southern England is awesome!! hope i get to see high risk of severe convection used one day!!

Thats the SPIRIT man!

theres a gale blowing in my bedroom, open all your windows people and play loud music, its fun and your neighbors will think your crazy which is always good

yes it could hit anywhere in the UK south and midlands, trying to predict which counties will be hardest hit is too trying for me though it could go either way.

Now i wasn't alive in '87 (generally considered a Q-100 event) but id put my best estimate at 1 in 20 this will be equally bad or worse, so pretty unlikely, gales & severe gales by the sea seem a more likely scenario. We'll just have to see. Im gunu sleep with my window open anyway, i like to take my risks, its never that windy here.

heres to sleeping with my window fully open tonight :winky: nothing cud go wrong just a mild bit of wind is most likely.

http://www.torro.org.uk/site/forecast.php AWESOME >.< if it comes true [ from expiriece they never have and they always seem a bit OTT]

getting thro this winter on netweather = not doing any of this

we'd all be crushed to death/ buried alive if there was 40 meters of snow!! if the met office forcast thaT people would literally go insane, before realising it was a typo and they meant to put 40mm. The best thing ever was last year, it was January and i was wondering if thered be any more snow that year and after only about a week of using netweather lots whoo -- 100% chance snow a week in advance- at no point was it downgraded, think it even upgraded, and it sure did snow --10 inches! scince then things have been a bit more disappointing, havent even had first frost yet, this time last year wed had snow & ice.

Probably just Interference i suggest, or i suppose its the sunspot that just rotated off the visible. New month and everythings blank once again... hopefully not for long.

i'd go with this too- slightly-- 0.6C above average. 7.5C BBC suggests Mild November whilst net weather suggests average or slightly below, so no agreement. netweather said 0.5C below average October CET though, this was way off like 2C warmer average than that.

VERY mild week as forecast pushing averages up making this the 9th well above average month in a row. this time last year it was snowing.

i just got a red email alert, anyone know if anythings going to happen or was it just a mistake, theres a big red bar and "possible sudden storm commencement" this is the first time ever, i subscribed about a year ago. im currently assuming its a technical error, due to there being no CME's or corronal holes or anything. Still low but not very low like it has been.

I found most of the things he said to be more or less correct, for once i think were on the same level here mr prime-minister :lol: We could FIX global warming instead... i mean seriously how hard can it be for all the scientists to come together and build something that convert C02 or whatever into oxygen or nitrogen. Plants convert C02 into oxygen, therefore we should stop getting rid of plants andplant more or build machines to do the job more efficiently. Were not going to be able to solve the root cause because people will never all come together and just stop using fuel. As far as im concerned so far there hasnt even been the slightest attempt to resolve the problem.

i have been monitoring today quite closely because for once i think we have proper activity (first time in 2 years) As of about 5pm today solar flux has soared to 81 this is an unmistakable record breaker for solar cycle 24. There has also been another C class flare [nothing big yet tho]

with B class background activity increasing again, the chance of C class flares is possible, M class is still very unlikely. Prove us wrong ma SUN! Id be surprised if things grew much more, so far sunspots have not grown for more than a couple of days before fading. I hope we leave the minimum now because i became interested in this stuff 2 years ago, and as im sure u all know the last 2 years have been the absolute Pits. i want to see THIS happen people http://www.nasa.gov/topics/solarsystem/features/halloween_storms.html for You cold and MAUNDER lovers, you are still probably in luck, theres BOUND to be sunspots>> hell I'm not happy, in fact I'm quite sad we should have an average SSN of about 70 by now if things had goneas nasa planned. sorry to quote myself but "hell I'm not happy, in fact I'm quite sad" << i dont remember typing that at all :[ must have been a typo my keyboards ******* ****

if the sun fails s about -270C CET otherwise somewhere in the 7-10C region, so far we all know its been a very mild year from February on.

USKAF is now currently showing 0-10% probability for much of UK with 11-15% for Scotland. So far autumn looks to be mild one. November & Winter proper Jan/feb looks more hopeful. personally id go with 40% chance white xmas in the south and perhaps higher in the north because you never know whats going to happen that far off. Not to mention most of the time models are showing about 40%.

Atleast it wont be too mild.

Whay nice big 9x spot growing and about 5 active regions been around for a good week, soloar flux up and activities growing, maybe the minimums over?????

ive been hoping for auroras/ storm for 2 years and i haven't seen anything because solar min is extremely low just as i got interested, things arent really up at the moment, but there have been many tiny spots trying to form. Despite nasa's predictions of 90 SSN (revised down from 140+) im increasingly thinking thing mightbarelytakeof at all, i'd be impressed if we got a monthly SSN of just 10 this year.

"Don't be fooled by the sunspot maximum years - a good CME (coronal mass ejection) can happen any time. SOHO data usually gives a day or so adavanced warning before it interacts with the Earth's magnetosphere. I'm reasonably place at my location and have witnessed several good shows. This one was in January and developed into an even better show later on but I'd already maxed the camera memory. Believe me, that red 'flame' was intense. I now have a better camera and a fast lens so I'm just waiting for the long dark winter nights." Not any more- ive been hoping for auroras for 2 years and i haven't seen anything because solar min is extremely low as i got interested.
