South East and East Anglia Regional Discussion 31st January 2013

[Kent Snow]

5C and moderate rain currently at Manston. Hopefully it should brighten up later.

[Coast]

Hmmm, so that's where they think this low + front is going then......

[Tilly]

Oh dear, I know I am deaf now, but perhaps I was deafer than I realised as a child! Whole new generation in Southend saying "vein lights"!

It is still raining, but I think it is quite mild at 7.8c

Vein lights is cool! Its one of those cute things where you mistake words for something else. Some of my 'own versions' of song lyrics are legendary where I mistake some words for something COMPLETELY different lol

[Coast]

Have you killed this thread?

Well maybe, but it's a corker in the Lounge now!

Nothing at all yet for the winds that are due to arrive this afternoon and overnight. I know it's not a monster now, but I'm still expecting to feel some effects on the coast down here.

[crazy_diamond]

It's a rather bright afternoon, the rain has cleared away and I can actually see clear blue sky, yay! I'm not sure what blustery stuff we'll get later, but hopefully you'll hang onto your smalls, Coast!

I'll be all right :winky:

[hernebaylooby]

A little tune to brighten up this dreary day......Beach Boys anyone?

Well South East girls are hip

I really dig their charming flair

And the Essex girls with the way they tan

Who needs the sun when you're down there?

The Kentish gardens daughters make the rain seem warm and light

And the Sussex girls are all snow obsessed

They watch the lampposts late at night

I wish they all could be South and Eastern

I wish they all could be South and Eastern

I wish they all could be South and Eastern girls

The South East coast has sunshine

But they'd trade it all for snow

If you threw in a blizzard, just for a laugh

The South and Eastern girls would glow.

I've been all round the UK

And I've seen all kinds of girls

But there's never a place,

Who thinks an inch is just ace,

Like the South and Eastern belles

I wish they all could be South and Eastern

I wish they all could be South and Eastern

I wish they all could be South and Eastern girls

im loving this!

oh by the way afternoon everyone

Just wondering what are the strongest gusts you think the south coast might except later??

Could be 45mph? Nothing too bad, but you may want to keep en eye on the buoy data here:

http://www.ndbc.noaa...d_Kingdom.shtml

Greenwich Lightship currently reporting 22 kts , with peaks earlier of 29 kts:

1 knot (kt) = 1.1508 mph

[SHM040519]

Have not been on here as been snowed under with university work (pardon the pun)

Even the met office out look says below average in the mid term and uncertain but probably colder in the long term

Temperature is dropping slowly, 5 here, no sign of any more than a very light breeze, 5 to 6 mph.
