I was referring to coventry not Buxton.

Buxton is a much colder wetter place where there was 4 inches snow in June 1975 which stopped the cricket!

True. The reasonably short journey from south Derbyshire, nevermind Coventry, to the Peak District almost always entails the weather becoming three times as vile.

My local weather station (http://www.monkspathweather.org.uk) is stating that 34mm has fallen so far today. That seems a bit on the high side, although in fairness it has been coming down pretty much all day.

I had to turn on the electric heater a couple of hours ago, it was so chilly - astonishing contrast to a week ago.

Today has been a superb day.

Cold and wet...with a maximum temperature of 9c!

A superb impersonation of a November day that is! Ugh! The "great" British summer at its worst!

All that was missing was the strong to gale force winds, and the air filled with autumn leaves being torn from the trees.

Wet all day here too with a max 10C. Started last night. Very misty and foggy, with a cold-feeling wind. Had to light the fire, nice and cosy now, but dogs smelly after wet walk!

[I remember Atlantic 252]

max temp today 10.9C, mild but not as mild as Xmas day, oh forgot its June!!!!!

Usual setup coming up, dry monday night, wet tuesday, dry tuesday night

dry wed night, wet thursday, dry thursday night

[Eugene]

Yes the weather feels colder than christmas day, quite incredible if you think of it, the weather this christmas afternoon will probably be only a few degrees colder than on sunday June 3rd

Utter atrocious outlook, these charts really sum up exactly how it's the same rubbish different year, in fact they are all so similar to the day pretty much with a big area of low pressure slap bang over us.

There are signals for a pressure build towards the equinox but that means we still have two more weeks of grot to get through before then.

By that time, the nights will then start to draw in, and peeps will start looking at FI charts for winter synoptics!

[Snowy Easterly]

im best off taking a break from this forum, the weather is as bad as it gets for the foreseeable, so i don't want to be reading gloom and doom posts about it, plus WUM merchants telling us how bad it is, like Eugene and PE, also my crops are doing very badly this year and if this carries on i won't be getting much.

[02476lisa]

Heavy rain and a huge rumble of thunder here,hoping for more

[azores92]

was atrocious driving back through telford about half an hour ago, a lot of spray and torrential rain. further east, and its clearing up somewhat, with the showers dying away.

[Snowy Easterly]

thats why connor has kept quiet then as there has been some eventful weather in telford, nothing for him to moan about lol

here its dry and cloudy, had a rubbish light shower about 2 hours ago

Edited June 6, 2012 by Snowy Easterly

[Costa Del Fal]

FINALLY!!!!

Thunder and Lightning here. :D

[Luke]

Its been rumbling for about half an hour, but not seen any lightning

Edit: I have now...

[Bishop Brennan]

A couple of very sharp showers so far today, but nothing thundery as yet. Another very dark cloud is approaching from the south-west, judging by the radar a deluge might be imminent.
