[Midlands regional discussion - Spring 2024]

GFS and EC flirting with snow chances around the 2nd, much more likely now than Dec to Feb

[Moans, ramps and banter]

FI on GFS looking good, only though if we get snow, but miles more confident now, than 2-3 months ago

[Spring 2024]

well to me, the sun feels thousand times hotter in 32C, than 15C, at 15C, wanna be in the sun, at 32C, wanna be in shade

[Moans, ramps and banter]

doubt that Donald, feeling we're in for a cool low pressure summer, please the rain lovers like razorgRAIN and Bingham etc

[“Second Beast From The East” 2018]

mini blizzards, definite smaller version of main beast, enough to cancel Stafford half marathon

[Moans, ramps and banter]

always feels warmer to me when grey/wet, wind just feels so much warmer

coldest is when a clear night/sunny start, difficult to 'thaw out' after a cold night, even with a max of say 17/18

where as wet/dull the min will be around 11/12, so much better warm feel

[Moans, ramps and banter]

seen that ad on facebook, last year as date wrong

[Midlands regional discussion - Spring 2024]

finally warm whilst visiting my Nan, waiting for bus

[Midlands regional discussion - Spring 2024]

washout on Wed though

[Midlands regional discussion - Spring 2024]

if its sunny, it's always colder, much warmer tomorrow with Sunday being worse than Saturday for umpteenth time

[Winter and Health]

obvious thing for me, maybe not everyone but viruses of the 'cold' family, Corona, stomach bugs etc, I only get them between Nov and April, always a risk of having cold etc for Xmas, but no risk for my birthday 1st Sept

feel chances of getting cold/flu etc are higher/worse with frost

 

[Snowfalls postpone the Cheltenham Gold Cup by a month]

different now though Damian, snow line surely higher up now

[The Lockdown Spring of 2020]

28th April was wet, I do remember that

[Is 110F (43C) possible in the UK?]

Plumes generally do not last long enough, not that I want 43C, no way! everyone wants summer but a decent late 20's will do

[Midlands regional discussion - Spring 2024]

tomorrow washout again, how many Tuesday's now

[Moans, ramps and banter]

do we ever have a decent last week of April? definitely the most unsettled week

[If you had to lose one of the following weathers....]

I'm looking for warmth on models now, looking decent next week, least favourite weather is bitter wind with no snow due, a bit like 2 days ago 

[If you had to lose one of the following weathers....]

In 90s and earlier, there would be less votes for snow, as we got proper snow then, think even I prefer summer over the modern w1nter crappy wet sleet at best

[If you had to lose one of the following weathers....]

and me Oliver, can't be doing with gales either, I always want a good summer, I do like heat but not for too long, 3 days over 30 on the bounce is enough, then I'd like it around mid 20's

[Earliest last frost]

usually April, as it's known for cold clear nights and sunny days

[If you had to lose one of the following weathers....]

we've virtually already lost snow, low levels south! mine would be daytime washouts, they used to be a one in every 5 year event, now can be once/twice a week

[Moans, ramps and banter]

to me it feels miles warmer when wet/windy, this week it's been this bitter dry cold

[Moans, ramps and banter]

warmer next week with heavy rain, massive difference to the feel, 

[Summer 1980 horrific!]

this doesn't look bad

 

[Summer 1980 horrific!]

Oi! I was born this summer
