South East & East Anglia Regional Discussion - October 4th 2012>

[Keraunic]

Hi all. Well, it's been a funny old day and no mistake and I'm now back in Naaaaarich. But there was some very big towering clouds about just before I left Ippy this aft and the sky was very dark. Thought we may have had some T&L but no such luck.

Have a good evening everyone. I'm going to my pit cos I'm weary, worn and fed up.

[Mark Neal.]

5.1c here and nippy!

Some very wet weather on the way from thursday morning

On the last fax chart look at that low pressure system to our south west. I think one to keep an eye on

Rather cold here at 3.0°C and falling, I think this will make the leaves start to fall quicker.

I see here http://www.webbkamer...kaise/index.php that they have some snow and it looks rather cold for the next few days.

A sparkling autumn morning here again.

However I'm predicting local flooding later.

I've got to change a tap washer...

I've got to change a tap washer...

let's hope nobody puts a spanner in the works then and hopefully your ground won't be too saturated after

I don't think this has anything to do with Steve's plumbing skills as it's in a different part of the region....

Went on a nice walk with jubby.Well it was nice untill two loose dogs spooked him!He some how manged to wrap himself round a tree fly out is halter (somehow?)and end up laying flat on the grass.

I then had to quickly undo his lead and kind of tie it in a knot round his neck to lead him off the field.as i had no chance of getting the halter on him bouncing around.

Stupid dog.

Luckily no injuries but how he come out that halter i dont know???

I am just glad it was a nice sunny morning as if it was raining would have been worse.

[chilly milly]

^^^ Oh not fun Floaty. I always worry about other dogs in the park when I'm out with my pup. Luckily owners always put their dogs on leads when they see me coming.

[Eskimo]

Was at work all day so haven't been able to enjoy the sunshine. However once I do get out of work at 4:15 the sun is weak and it feels like the evening already.

[Neilsouth]

Check out that rain coming toward the south east, didn't think that was expected!!

[Snowangel-MK]

Well is it too much to ask for another frost tonight ? I'm not sure really it's 7.4 °C here at the moment but it looks clear so who knows !

Anyway there is only so much excitement a girl can take in one evening and after watching Felix Baumgartner jump from space live it's down to earth with a bump for me and a bit of Downton Abbey before bed!

Catch you all in the morning

[bobbydog]

well, what a lovely autumnal day i got up to today. the first proper frost. i had to scrape ice off the car! lots of slap from the serpentine belt though, might just have to get a spare just in case!

I got an adrenaline rush just watching him.

Currently 7.0c here and temp dropping so frost very possible.

[john pike]

Hi archiesmummy

Be a lot different tomorrow

Caught the edge of that and it drizzled. Not exciting unfortunately!

[Snowangel-MK]

Morning all, No frost here last night but it is the 25th anniversary of the Great Storm 15–16 October 1987 which although it didn't affect me personally (only in as much as I saw the roof blow off the house opposite and my hairdressers Mother was killed when a tree fell on her car) it was certainly one for the record books.

As some of you are not old enough to remember (or were not even born) here is some information on the storm.....

An unusually strong weather system caused winds to hit much of southern England and northern France. It was the worst storm to hit England since the Great Storm of 1703 (284 years earlier) and was responsible for the deaths of at least 18 people in England.

According to the Beaufort scale of wind intensities, this storm had winds of hurricane force; however, the term hurricane refers to tropical cyclones originating in the North Atlantic or North Pacific. Hurricanes have a very different wind profile and distribution from storms, and significantly higher precipitation levels.

The storm was declared a rare event, expected to happen only once every several hundred years.

Morning Angel and everyone. I remember it well although luckily I wasn't affected by the storm either. i remember being upset over the number of trees that were felled by the storm though.

Quite chilly here this morning but no frost. Currently 5.8c dry and if you look in a certain direction, bright.

Have a great day all!

[lottiekent]

Morning, down to 2.5c overnight. Only 4.1c now so a chilly walk to work it is...love it
