  1. Schools in Cardiff, Swansea, most of the south Wales valleys and parts of west Wales will be closed on Friday. Gosh it's pretty scary isn't it? I'm from north west Wales originally so I'm used to strong winds and severe weather but now living in a more populated area in the south east (Wales) I'm slightly worried about this one.

    The red warning for such a small area, actually devalues the amber warning for elsewhere in the eyes of Joe Public. They’ll just assume that it’s not that bad if they’re in amber. 

    I remember Met Office issuing red for parts of England where there were much less rainfall while Wales remained in amber, seeing 100m+ of rain and some towns in south Wales valleys under water. They definitely have some work to do with their warning system.

    Interesting webcam to keep an eye on tomorrow in Porthcawl.

  5. Little rain overnight and some light rain around this morning. Amounted to 1.52mm.

    Rather boring weather at the moment but will be nice to see some sunshine towards the middle of the week. 

    I've had a new weather station too so feel free to take a look. Looking forward to some higher temperatures in the summer and UV levels to test the station's UV function:
