  1. Even more impressive, the top of Greenland reached 6.2c http://www.ogimet.com/cgi-bin/gsynres?lang=en&ind=04301&ano=2018&mes=2&day=26&hora=12&min=0&ndays=30
  2. It reached 2.5c in the end, pretty toasty for up there http://www.ogimet.com/cgi-bin/gsynres?ind=04312&lang=en&decoded=yes&ndays=2&ano=2018&mes=02&day=26&hora=12
  3. How do the servers (mostly) cope with upwards of 3000 people online at once, when for a large part of the year the load is barely 10% of the peak?
  4. Is it worth getting the full NW extra, or does the cheaper package include all the good stuff like the hi-res nwx and hourly gfs charts?
  5. Blizzards devastated the South West 40 years ago 2nd March 2058 It is the 40th anniversary of the start of what was one of the worst blizzards to have affected the United Kingdom in the last 100 years. It affected South West England and south Wales for five days from 1st to 5th March 2018 before milder weather edged in bringing a general thaw. The cold air initially moved into the UK from the east around the 25th, and was further enhanced by a cold pool of air moving in from central Europe between the 27th and 1st of March . The weather set up, with a huge contrast in air-masses either side of a weather front, led to considerable snowfall for the South West on the 1st and 2nd and this was followed on the 3rd and 4th by an unusually severe blizzard which extended to south Wales. Snow accumulated to depths of about 60cm in places on Dartmoor and Exmoor and to 85cm at Shepton Mallet in Somerset, but drifts of at least 6m were reported over a wide area which included Dorset and Wiltshire. The exceptional weather cut communications and caused severe hardship, and although milder weather soon reached the south-west, several towns and villages were isolated by snowdrifts for some days and it was reported that there was still snow on the ground in early July. In Benson, Oxfordshire a bizarre prolonged heat burst event prevent the temperature dropping below 3c. Snow depths at 9am on 5th March: 85cm Shepton Mallet 60cm Princetown Prison 55cm Swindon 47cm Bath 45cm Bristol 2cm Poole
