Happy Birthday Steve and Tom.
I hope you both have had great days!

Currently 16.6c, the sky looks like its threaterning to rain! Felt wonderful sleeping in my own bed last night.

Since halloween is coming up I thought I would practice my pumpkin carving skills with this:
Oogie Boogie from The Nightmare Before Christmas, I had to draw it from scratch as I couldn't find a good enough stencil.

Happy Birthday Tom ( Jarvis ).

 

It's incredibly mild here this evening, 17.6c at 6pm which is the highest it's been all day. The grey blanket of gloom has no doubt acted as an insulator, though not the most inspiring of days by any stretch of the imagination. Hope everyone has survived Monday as best they can.

It stayed dry this evening whilst out doing my rounds at the shops.  Very mild too, 17oC in late Oct is quite unusual IIRC.

Hope you've had a good day too Tom :-)I've had a lovely unbirthday (yes there was cake) despite the most miserable weather - thankfully I was indoors for most of the day and tomorrow we will be in Xscape and Cineworld if it's this wet !

[Mark Neal.]

Its nearly 8pm on a late October day and we have a temperature of 17.5c. Been a day of heavy rain on/off. That wind has really intensified through the day, roaring now. 

[Captain Shortwave]

Hope, an olive branch, maybe a rest-bite from the relentless wind and rain

Nice to see and I hope it comes of but a Scandi high in November is as rare as a tits on a fish.

Some clear spells at moment. While west of here have seen showers/ pretty much all afternoon . A rather dry and mild evening for Eastern areas then.

[EJA]

So what does everyone think about the storm that is predicted in FL on the 28th/29th?

[Jan_Bromley]

Hello everyone,

 

Very grey and rainy morning turned into a brighter, non-descriptive warmish afternoon. Still pleasant though.

 

Happy birthday to you Steve and Tom

[Tom Montalbano]

Hello everyone,

Happy birthday to you Steve and Tom

 

Hi Jan,

 

Hope you're ok, how is it there down on the Nursery slopes? 

 

Tom.

[Mark Neal.]

Also a happy birthday to Steve.

[Bluebreezer54]

16.9c at 9.30pm this late in October is worthy of a mention I think. Temperatures like that wouldn't look out of place in summer.

Happy Birthday Tom and Steve.

Evening all, and happy birthday Steve C and Tom, hope you have had a lovely day!

I'm currently feeling like crap and am off work - not looking too good for tomorrow either, especially now mini raven has taken a bucket to her bedside tonight!

Weather has been pretty non-script today - dry and mild.

I'm too busy worrying about the apocalyptic weather next week that the Express has headlined for the UK, apparently we are going to get "relentless rainstorms and terrifying winds" *rolls eyes and sniggers*

hi all

tomorrow

 

a strong south west wind

 

temps

 

around 18 degrees

 

rainfall

very wet

 

now when we get to the afternoon-evening

 

note the heavy rain and unstable air so a chance this rain could become thundery

 

also tuesday night

 

could see some heavy thundery showers as well

feeling humid

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

wednesday

 

a more westerly flow and still fairly noticeable

 

temps

 

14-16 degrees and maybe a shade lower to the north of the region

 

rainfall

 

after early morning heavy rain

 

we will see some heavy showers but will start to clear as we head towards the evening

 

------------------------------------------------------------------

 

wednesday night looks dry and possibly foggy

 

temps

will feel a lot colder than of late

 

somewhere around 6-8 degrees

 

--------------------------------------------------

i was lucky  and won a supermarket voucher so next wednesday me and southernman  are going to buy loads of stuff which isn't good for us  go and stock up for winter with sensible stuff.

hi eja

 

keep watching the charts as this will need watching

 

however the jet will be the main thing to watch here

 

if it shows the southerly track

in the more reliable timeframe

 

like this

 

and this low is still showing

 

 

 

when the fax comes into the timeframe which will be 3 or 4 days away

 

i would be concerned as well

 

but at present i would not worry about it for now

friday

 

a weak south westerly flow but getting gusty in the afternoon

 

starts dry

 

however heavy rain enroute before lunchtime for most

 

temps 12-14 degrees but feeling cooler when the rain arrives

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------

 

saturday

 

a north westerly flow

 

looks like some light showers around but nothing heavy at present

 

temps around 12-14 degrees

 

could get quite cold overnight with uppers dropping fairly quickly

 

keep watching the atlantic to see what that storm does

 

ukmo at 144

 

cool with a gusty westerly wind

 

see the atlantic storm isobars tightening

 

however at 980 pressure would be a normal winter storm for us at present
