Atlantic Storms 13th to 16th December 2011 - Part 4

[DavidHB]

Hi David, well I hope your height advantage will be enough for you to see the lovely white stuff falling tonight, do you know what your dew point is?

Yup sorry forgot to put that in there

Temp 3C, Dew Point /2C

[Gorath]

Yes but it's far more interesting having members post the individual reports in here

Of course, yes. Still a nice graphical view of the country, giving an overview of what's going on.

Interesting that it currently indicates snow in Bournemouth and it also indicates it has been snowing in Eastbourne in the last hour? I wonder whether anyone can confirm this. I can't see it as conditions aren't ideal at the minute.

They're mainly observations sent in by the public, so they should be accurate. With the caution of course, that one man's snow, is another man's sleet.

[Candice]

Well, I think it could be severe storms, the latest serious powerful storms will unleash high winds, torrential rain, some snow and severe winds with hurricane gusts just like a Hurricane Ivan was a category 3 hurricane but is not a hurricane. Heavy rains, even a possible enough for flooding will attend the eastward spreads of high winds. Highest fall of rains will be 2 to potentially as much as 4 inches (50-100mm) in Western and Northern France, Northwestern Germany, even into Southern England with even a possible hurricane force winds gusts up to 80 mph, or perhaps more than 100mph winds.

Would you mind explaining where you are getting your information from?

Hmmmm maybe sleety rain at the most!

[Gorath]

Your images are so quite larger that make me slow and fools.

Maybe you should give the drinks a rest for a bit.

Temp 3C, Dew Point /2C

Dew point a bit to high atm David, not to excessive though and evaporative cooling could come into play.

Are these live snow reports that have occurred today/tonight?

I was just explaining to you about this information form that is because i was just looking over the net according to the Fragile Earth and the Accuweather as well.

They're generally from people who exaggerate immensely the type of ppn and amount of snow they get.

Whatever anyone reports on there or on here, reduce the snowfall rate and accumulated depth by 75% and you might get close to what, in reality, is the truth.

Just paid £25 for the year to see where its snowing re rain today site

Don't know if its the best but...

LOL most people do tend to over estimate snowfall and depths, also likely if they observe sleet falling they will probably claim it's a blizzard! I always take such reports with a pinch of salt, unless of course photographic evidence is available or other people live within the same area and can back them up.

[Polar Bear]

Ok chaps am in Brighton and it is livening up here for sure in last half hour at 830pm I was looking at 3.5 knots now it has just gust to 25.2.

rain in the mix too.

Wind SSE

temp 6.4

Pressure 995.2 (drop 2.6mb/hour)

the other thing is the wind is now veering more easterley - still southerly but more SE and ESE, than SSE

Agree but nice to see a good fall

[PeterDoswell]

pressure down to 995 in southampton now ............. fall of 11mb in 3 hours .......

[Cloud Khaos]

For the benefit of the forum member who was requesting information about the Charente area of France, I came across this marine forcast, cannot vouch for any accuracy nor from where they receive their data, yet this is for Tonnay-Charente which is just a bit inland from Bay of Biscay. The wind speeds can be changed to knots, mph or kmh .. Hopefully their "gust"prediction for early morning is a bit over the top.

Either way you look at it it's severe, Baton down the hatches and ensure that the roof is firmly attached to the ground i'd guess.
