Morning all. 6.9c this morning in the shire, Overnight low of 5.8c. Cloud spreading in now ahead of the rainband which is about 45 miles away.

Lovely sunrise this morning. Look like mamantus clouds to me?

Plenty of fog here to the East of Northampton. Another day or 2 in this neck of the woods then back home tomorrow.

7.2c here this morning and a lovely rosy glow to the skies.  Have  a good day everyone.

Same here but I think at a push they may be Altocumulus, definitely not Mammatus.

Agreed. Definitely have the altocumulus look. I'd say a mixture of the cirrus / cirrostratus and cirro/altocumulus, which the sun can backlight, can make for the perfect sunrise/ sunset pictures.

 

I generally associate mammatus with convective, rather than the frontal rainfall, due today.

 

A sheet of cirrostratus here and the day won't get better. Looking forward to a half decent day here tomorrow now - some sunshine and mild / warmish.

Morning Steve.

 

I think Mammatus are pretty rare anyway, I've only ever seen it maybe half a dozen times and one of those was only because Paul Sherman pointed it out to me in a howling gale.

Morning all,

 

What's a sunrise....in fact what's a sun ?

 

Oh well, it's bound to rain today ....I'm getting my hair done later and we all know my hair appointments should come with a severe weather warning 

 

Have a nice day anyway.....it will soon be Christmas

Sun just starting to poke through the mist here, nowhere near as foggy or cold as they suggested, only 8.8C last night.

 

time to get the outside jobs done before the rain arrives....

[Coast]

A millennium away and as isolated as you could get, but this lonely red symbol intrigues me next Tuesday:

 

 

[Heisenberg]

Rain incoming by the looks of it.....a total blah day.

 

Re the footie last night, I find it rather sad that there were more Polish supporters in the ground than English. Im not racist at all, but I suppose they did build it

[MP-R]

Foggy here in Egham but with light rain falling for the last hour or so. Bit earlier than I expected so maybe it will clear through a bit quicker too.

[RUSH]

Hello all  Just returned from a monsoon fest in Belgium...one dry day for sighseeing and the rest of the time spent wringing the rain water out of sodden holiday clothes!  But had a great time and good to see my German friends again

 

So, seems that a return home sees yet more rain....

Hi there SE gang, hope you are all well with blessings.

 

Just to inform you that Croydon Council are prepared with full salt stocks with gritters primed and ready. An emergency meeting with the councils emergency planning team is being co-ordinated to discuss potential severe/adverse conditions.

Hello Yammers (Winter must be nearing).

 

Can you just confirm for people in the thread, that the meeting you draw reference to, happens every year around this time and is just a contingency/stocking thing and not related to an perceived immediate threat of snowy, cold or even slightly colder weather?

 

I think it's important the members are aware of the general circumstances of this and don't read into it any imminent inclement weather, as nobody wants to start a ramping riot just yet eh?

Hi Coast, This emergency meeting is a lot different to the other years.

Bit early for that isn't it - nothing on the cards for the immediate future

Hi Coast, This emergency meeting is a lot different to the other years.

 

should I be investing in beans and shotgun cartridges?

[HammerJack]

Miserable day here.  Matches my miserable mood.

[Coast]

Hi Coast, This emergency meeting is a lot different to the other years.

 

You mean they are not expecting any significant change in weather imminently and/or they have less money to spend and have to be careful over this Winter what they spread?

 

I just don't think people should be reading anything into what could be just another planning meeting about budgets and staffing etc etc just yet. Unless you can give us more precise details that say otherwise?

should I be investing in beans and shotgun cartridges?

 

Are you going hunting teenagers then?
