Wales, The Midlands and Southwest England - Regional Weather Chat

[conor123]

Utterly vile day, almost no sunshine but no 'lively' showers either just 12/13c and grey with the odd spot of rain.

Seems to be a recurring theme this time of year though anyway, usually picks up again in around 10-14 days time.

And still, looking at the radar some beefy showers crashing into north Wales off the irish sea atm.

Thundery overnight with some heavy rain, but mostly dry here since about 10am [10:15am to be exact] , however a few miles north has been much wetter.

 

Some sunny spells here this morning and mostly cloudy since. Feeling cool though in the 60mph gusts.

Horrible night... horizontal driving rain, been raining off and on all day but more persistent now.

Good example of orographic lift over the Welsh mountains on radar

My weekly retrospective summary and look at the week ahead:

http://forum.netweather.tv/blog/309/entry-4750-weather-guide-monday-12th-to-sunday-18th-may-2014/

Headline: Cool and showery at first, becoming mostly dry and warm from Wednesday; more unsettled next weekend

[Bobby]

27mm here since the start of yesterday, 55mm this month. Still fairly windy. Looks to be settling down for a bit next week before low pressure exerts influence again.

Looking ever so promising towards the end of this week then, Tony .... Ahhhhh! Sounds so nice 20c and blue skies, Hopefully from morning till dusk...

 

Mean while, Showers here, but light in nature though,  yup!  it feels cool in that wind.... 12.4c ......77c Triple LOL!

[Andy Bown]

Really wasn't expecting a mostly sunny day when waking to overcast skies with showery rain, however since the sun broke through at around 11.00 the sky has cleared to a beautiful blue with scattered fast moving fair weather cumulus. There's a keen WNW wind and it's only 14.9c but pleasant to have been outside in.

[SteveB]

When will the wind die down, been really windy now for over 24hrs.

[Dancerwithwings]

Looks like you folk in the SW haven't had it to bad today, Plenty of sunshine from time to time, it seems, looking at, http://www.sat24.com/en/gb

[Zephyr]

Wow I got confused with the thread's good to see so many new faces from other regions! 

 

Weather wise here it hasn't been to bad of a day really haven't had any rain but it's looking like it may rain soon and the wind seems to have died down compared to what it was! Felt like Autumn yesterday!

[I remember Atlantic 252]

north east of this thread, very autumnal again, feels no different to what it did during Dec to Feb, difference is, its still light at 19.33

[J10]

Another mostly dry day from mid morning, not saying a time!!! A bit bright this afternoon as well with some sunny spells.

 

However twas not dry ovenight with spells of heavy rain for longish periods. Winds seemed to have eased off a bit
