  1. Plenty of sunshine IN this bit of the Far East too. Another very frosty morning this morning - temperature briefly touched -3c on my journey to work this morning, fantastic in the sunrise and as white on the bushes as the coldest Winter morning in those spots. And definitely a nip in the air even in the day in this part of the world, along with the beautiful wall-to-wall sunshine.
  2. Yes, the sea breeze drops out each night and there has been a frost every morning since I don't know when, except yesterday when it was misty. But true, nothing visible on grass today only on cars in exposed spots which were covered. Whereas it was really thick / icy last week and weekend though similar daytime temperatures to this week.
  3. Can someone explain what's with the dewpoints? Fascinating looking at them on Meteociel. e.g. Leeming air temperature at 15.48: 15c Leeming dp at 15.48: -11c Leeming 'anomaly': 26c Loftus air temperature: 12.2c Loftus dp: -14.1c Loftus anomaly: 26.3c Are such huge differences common / normal? (I've not looked at dew points before this year) And. . . really ignorant question coming up I know. . . if the dp is so low, how come the frost still melts in the shade?
  4. Families understand one another inately with not much said, don't they? Anyway, to keep Hairy happy: Any pics, PLEASE?
  5. Loch Glascarnoch and Balmoral probably also strong contenders. Altnaharra probably a bit of a stretch due to its lower altitude and, perhaps, relative proximity to the Northern coast - though otherwise in the sweet spot of the low uppers/coldest air mass etc.
  6. Ooh, whisper it quietly but we're tiptoeing into the 'reliable' timeframe now. It's tantalisingly not quite in reach, yet nearly time to ask "Will it be cold with -8/-10 uppers and some transient snow even in Southern UK? - or will it be historically cold with -14/-15 uppers and snow that actually sits there in most low level parts of the UK?"
  7. Boo, was hoping it would have reverted to colder again after the blip on the 12z. The signals are for the worst of all worlds, cold and unsettled in April but no white stuff.
  8. Northolt is interesting because it was 1.2c at 6am - surely quite a thick frost - and 23.3c at 2pm, probably higher still 3-4pm.
  9. 24.2c at St. James Park 2pm, not sure what it was at 3pm.
  10. Tend to disagree, let's have PROPER cold with snow lying for days and not melting - otherwise what's the point, let's get on with Summer? Pretty charts alone don't do it for me, especially when they're not 'today's' and at T144 etc
  11. Fantastic here too, 19deg on the coast - makes a world of difference when it's a Westerly based wind not a southerly or easterly with their freezing on shore winds, especially this time of year with the low SSTs.
  12. Does the lack of contributions suddenly mean that the 6z models were terrible for coldies, or just that everyone's enjoying the higher temperatures outdoors today?
  13. Forgive us if we don't get too excited until the predicted Aprigeddon cold is inside T96, regardless of how many models are showing it in FI. Plus as others have commented, something a bit more concretely cold south of Lincolnshire/Derbyshire would be nice to see, too.
  14. It's not that. Many of us would much prefer real Spring warmth with lots of sunshine. But if we're not going to get it, or anything else particularly interesting, then we might as well have REAL cold if it's going to be cold.
  15. Has it been a colder winter than average then, when all's said and done?
  16. Unless you live on the East coast itself, in which case the chilly south or S-E winds will continue to feel bitter, with or without sea mist!
  17. Interesting to see the perpetual teasing cold charts in FI 10-14 days away. And, as usual, there they perpetually stay - in FI - whilst our 'real' weather remains, week by week, decidedly ordinary, notwithstanding its usual variations of settled and unsettled.
  18. Nah, North-North-Westerly's much better for some of our locations. So not everybody
  19. Thanks for the doses of sanity / reality. There's no realistic prediction of a cold spell, though obviously in FI things can change a lot. Personally, if we're not going to have a proper cold spell, I do hope we get a proper early dose of warmth, 20deg would go down a treat. Not quite sure why some on here get sentimental about that as if what happens in a brief February/March spell in 2021 is a definite predictor that the world has been irreversibly overheated or something. We could end up having a cool Summer after this! More extremes don't necessarily mean more warming, though it might indicate more storminess as the norm.
  20. Well yes, we may be slightly more prone to huge temperature (and other) variations, than a few decades ago. But in both directions, not just warm - plus, don't forget how much accurate recording of temperature and other variables has increased steadily over the last 150 years+. February temperature in excess of 20deg is no indicator we're suddenly heading towards a non-temperate climate. Large parts of the USA have had such temperature variations and bigger for years, including coastal locations like New York.
