I know Pom, that's why I haven't told anyone. Will give it another week or so and see how things pan out.

[mountain shadow]

What a cracking afternoon, some folks in for a shock next week.

[sundog]

mild and dull here,the weather type i hate the most. Looking much cooler next week thankfully.  

My hopes and thoughts for nov are for plenty of frosty and foggy weather and a below average month overall. If we are to get a proper wintry spell anytime over the coming weeks i think it will hold off until sometime in dec.

[ronan]

Hows it going folks. Normally in here posting way before now but i have heard there is a chance of colder weather from next week on so happy days. Time to have a nosey through the rest of the forum to catch up on things. Hope you are all keeping well.

Good to see ya back Ronan,  beautiful day earlier and very warm,  as some have suggested could be a shock to the system next week... 

[ronan]

Thanks Pom. Its good to be back. I'm liking all this high pressure thats been lurking about for the past while. Definitely a good sign as we head in to November.

So very random thing happened on my way down from Omagh to Pomeroy tonight, could hear this scratching noise in the car, thought ah stained glass window it's a rat, but no it was a stained glass windowin hedgehog how it got in I have no idea, anyway have the wee dude packed off to the garden plenty of bushes and fallen leaves to build it's hibernation den, poor wee thing!! 

[ronan]

You gotta love the stained glass window Hedgehogs Pom. Lol. Such an interesting period of weather coming up. This is the type of Autumn we want....mild, cold, trees still in full leaf and the main thing.....LOADS OF BLOCKING!! Screenshot from the beeb week ahead. Won't take much going in to November for us to see somthing good develope from this. Polar Vortex is non existent, cold building in the eastern block extending west and the jet stream split. Great stuff and well worth keeping an eye on. 

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Lol forgot about the swear filter, I would say stained glass window could appear a number of times lol

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Happy Halloween everyone, enjoy your trick n treating and keep an eye out for things that go bump in the night 

[Rocheydub]

Hah lads, what is stained glass window swear filter for?

 

Interesting looking charts for days 7-10 Early November chills, they're multiplying!

Hell no lol

[sundog]

certainly the coldest evening of the season  so far, temp 4.3c,should get a sharp frost by morning.

[BIG LAD]

car therm dipped to 2.5c at half 6 this eve before settling at 3.5c. first time the frost light came on since spring. dont think we are gonna see the best of the cold next few days, england and scotland best positioned.

[gary1365]

There was a decent grass frost the other morning can't remember which. I had to scrape the car at 8 in the morning coming home from work.

I don't want to get too excited but I have a feeling we'll see something half decent this winter. Here's to hoping anyway.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Decent frost on the car this morning, has been a glorious autumn so far,  the trees look magnificent in their autumn coats

Hi guys

Do any of you know where I can find what sort of climate is usual in an area in Eire? Currently thinking about a move to Co Clare and know what West Clare is like was wondering if it was much different in East or North East Clare.
