No idea. I suspect it'll pivot and move westward. ?

Very interesting model watching the past few days re : Fridays low. Not making much progress north across the bulk of England until very late on and even into Saturday.

Where abouts are you? It's frustrating, just north of the snow band (I'm in peterborough) www.raintoday.co.uk

It's nice to see recognition for all the hard work you've put in over the years. I myself seem to have drifted away from the rollercoaster ride that is the GFS but still keep a beady eye out for interesting weather nonetheless. Let us all know when the show is to be aired...

Just came on netweather today and thought i recognized the second picture from the lunchtime weather! Nice one!

Well well well, check out www.xcweather.co.uk. Its not just a southern fling, Sky Lusa is currently reading 23C and Prestwick airport 24C!!! London not showing anywhere near the 25C mark, wonder which stations are used on xcweather compared to Metoffice.

Put me down for a 12.3C. I agree with an ealier suggestion of a dominant euro high. Wet and mild all the way folks. LM

Was shocked to see some sleet this morning here in Stamford Lincolnshire. Just a passing shower but i am amazed that nothing else has been reported today! Anyone else had anything remotely wintery? LM

Is that a hint at your winter forecast Ian? B) LM

Let go of worldly posessions, live off the land, not GM crops, be grateful for being alive and most of all...live on, and on, and on, and on....

I was pointing out that we are not contributing to climate as much as other people, yet we seem to be the only ones thinking about acting on it. USA opted out from the Kyoto agreement, USA takes on a selfish attitude, USA is the world largest consumer of fossil fuels, and USA is the biggest contributor to greenhouse gases. They pay less than half the price for a liter of fuel than we do. They aren't paying for their waste, so why should we when we already suffer heavy fuel duty! Dont get me wrong, i'm all for doing something about it, but why tax us more than we already are being taxed when others aren't and theyre the main contributors. LM

Im all for doing something about the pollution worldwide, whether it is actually affecting our climate, is another matter, but why should we the tax payers pay for changes? Yes the changes are good and i agree with their implementation, but increasing the costs of fuel and other green taxes is pointless. Will it stop people from using their cars if tax on petrol/litre goes up say 20p? Nope. People will put up with it because for many it is essential to their lives. What should be tackled is air travel. if you fly to Australia you might as well leave your car running for 30years. Thats how much pollution is created!!! However taxing air travel will push up the price of travel, imports, exports and affect the gloabl economy too much so it would never get the backing required to reduce emissions. One final point. Why should i pay to save the world when the country with the largest army cant be bothered, and the country with the highest use of fossil fuels can be bothered either (China and USA)!!!??? LM

Tornado reported in Baston Lincolnshire. Several injured as it touched down and destroyed a hut people were sheltering in! First March, now Baston, where next LM

Its an idea to notify the cambs times about it. My mother in law "Maggie Gibson" is the senior reporter there. Ring them up, ask for her and tell her luke mudge put you on to her...im sure they'll run the story. Coincedently i saw a funnel cloud over march this year too, although much smaller than yours 01354 652621 Let me know... LM

Im going for above average in temperature and above in rainfall too. CET prediction = 16.9c LM

The current N-W UK tracker figure for July 2006 is: 19.99°C Its happening....!

Interesting to see 18 degrees has been reached south west of scotland!!! Check out www.xcweather.co.uk...very interesting! Huge swing in temperatures of late, not sure why people have dissappeared the forums when its now the weather gets interesting and convective LM

Not sure what you mean, but theyre are links that change, so old links will look the same as the now forecasts. Makes sense?! Or have i missed the point? LM

Just had a huge thunderstorm, lightning three or four times a minute, very strong winds and torrential rain preceeded by hail. I was pleasantly surprised.!!

Ive been through a storm or two in cambridgeshire (march) and saw a funnel cloud last summer. I think the flat land helps a litttle... LM

Thanks very much John , now i can really follow the boards without getting lost B)

When talking about cloubs, what does CB & others stand for? LM

Would like to report hail shower here in Highcliffe (on me 'ols) with gusty winds and heavy rain following. LM

My bad!! It is now a full blown blizzard. Flakes bigger than 50p pieces!!!
