  1. As the creeping tendrils of freezing mist and fog once more start to stalk the streets… Evening everyone. The last glimmer of the suns disc slipped below the horizon at 15:55! Which is twenty two minutes later than it was back in mid December when it was setting at 15:33! Within the next few days we’ll once again be in the world of post 16:00 sunsets! The peak of the darkness is now well and truly over… Until next December that is.
  2. Well that storm pretty much died out over the Dee estuary/Wirral peninsula… But I did manage to catch this photo before it did.
  3. Holy cow that was a good rumble of thunder!! Forked lightning as well!! Just been out with the dog… I have to say that this is very unexpected, (but most welcome) for late December.
  4. Morning everyone. Well at 03:27 this morning, the Winter Solstice occurred! So this is it folks… The pendulum has reached the end of its stroke… And we have reached the darkness at the end of the tunnel. The next time we’ll be loosing daylight will be in six months time. I know that the morning end of the day has still got a little bit of light to lose … But as of tomorrow… What is being gained in the evening now outweighs what’s being lost.
  5. Well today marks the start of the beginning of the end… For another year anyway! Because as of today we stop loosing daylight at the evening end of the day. The actual earliest sunset is on either Wednesday or Thursday (according to the Time and Date website) … but there are only mere seconds in it. The actual winter solstice is on Friday the 22nd of December at 03:27 in the morning… Plus we carry on loosing daylight at the morning end of the day until the 1st of January! So you can see why I called it the beginning of the end. Lol Anyway… I’ll shut up now as I’m rambling .
  6. Evening everyone. Well sadly this is it… The final few hours of meteorological autumn for another year. *sigh* Mind you… It’s given us quite a bit! Starting off with the September heatwave, a very soggy October thanks to some named storms, and (at present) a very seasonal feeling to end November. So for my final post to the Autumn 2023 thread, I shall leave you with some of my favourite images that I’ve taken throughout the season. (Plus for the technically minded, I decided to go retro and shot these on 35mm! Kodak Gold 200 and a Pentax P30. ) So until next year, farewell autumn… It was a pleasure as always.
  7. Evening @CharlieBear9 Sadly yes, it does seem short… Or does it go too fast? But if you know where to look, the signs of autumn often do appear just after the summer solstice.
  8. Evening everyone. Well sadly we’re in the dying days of autumn 2023. In my neck of the woods, most of the trees have now lost their autumn plumage, but I thought I’d share some of the photos that I’ve taken of the autumn colours at night! I present to you… Autumn by lamp light!
  9. Evening everyone. Well I’m currently on my break in work, and I’ve just been outside to watch the sunset. I can now confirm that due to the topography of the land, that for my neck of the woods, I am once again in the land of pre-15:30 sunsets. I know that in less than a months time the evenings will be getting lighter again as we start knocking on the door of the winter solstice, and the long hard road back towards the summer solstice… But for now, I’m more than happy… The vice has now totally slackened off.
  10. Don’t worry folks, you’re certainly not alone in liking the darker evenings.
  11. Morning everyone. Just a mere 13 days to go now until the clock change from BST back to GMT. I know that many will totally disagree with me, (and if you do, hey that's absolutely fine... We're all different) but I've always found the time around the clock change weekend in October, and Halloween particularly special and magical. For me personally, the sheer horrors of the sun being overhead in the summer, and its seemingly nonstop 24/7 daylight are now but a dim and distant bad memory. ... Until next April that is. Lol
  12. Morning all. I see that the U.K. Meto have just issued a yellow thunderstorm warning for Saturday… Tomorrow! I haven’t really had much time to look into the details, but given this current heatwave, I wouldn’t be surprised by a thundery breakdown. As always… Good luck to everyone with this.
  13. RABBITS! WHITE RABBITS! It’s the 1st of September 2023, which means that it’s the first day of meteorological autumn! And right bang on cue… Here comes the fog! So naturally I had to go and and chase the fog didn’t I? Welcome to the promised land.
  14. Evening everyone. Well I wasn’t expecting to be posting in this thread this evening, but I’m currently stood outside on the front lawn, watching a storm flashing away over the Irish Sea, just off the coast of Bootle and Southport!
