  1. Haha I’ve just done the same! if I’d have fallen asleep for an hour or two I would have thought the sun had been beating down all day on awaking sparkling blue skies here
  2. Back to clear blue skies and hot sun here after a brief shower and clap of thunder. Didn’t even wet the ground!
  3. Well after 15 minutes of rain and 2 claps of thunder we have blue skies as far as the eyes can see, no wind and hot sunshine. Certainly not what I was expecting. If anything it’s even more uncomfortable with same temps and higher humidity
  4. A squally shower coming through this afternoon with soft hail and snow. Temp Circa 3c in Cwmbach around 450’ asl IMG_2331.MOV
  5. Well here in the S Wales valleys nothing out of the very ordinary today Windy? Yes but nothing notable here Amazing what difference a few hills and 20 miles makes I guess. Conversely with snow it can be a foot deep here and green in Cardiff Fascinating stuff none the less Here a yellow warning would have sufficed, certainly not an orange one let alone the red 10 miles down the valley
  6. Well here in S Wales the wind turbines are still turning at 1300’ asl I would have thought they would be turned away from the wind today Guessing the strong winds aren't there yet then lol Nothing of note here nearly an hour into the red warning (we are right on the edge of it here in RCT)

  8. Remember too, a 70mph gust in a city can become 90mph when funnelled by buildings etc Cardiff could see 80-90mph so add in the funnelling effect and you’re going to see many trees felled and roofs blown off Cardiff will be a v dangerous place tomorrow as will Bristol
  9. All schools in Rhondda Cynon Taf are now closed due to red warning Trains also being suspended and my guess is all public transport will be suspended and Cardiff airport will be closed for a period My guess is that BOTH Severn crossings will be closed too
  10. Just a case of radar watching I guess At this rate I’m guessing it will be in your area around 10-11am
  11. Ah you got a bit of height there too. All my family farm around Clarbeston which isn’t too far from you
  12. It looks way too intense to fizzle Its also tilting NW-SE At this rate NI will struggle to get the snow and we will end up getting more
  13. I fear it will be dry for most of us tomorrow but I’d love to be wrong In the mean time I’ll share some pics of my parents house in N Kent who had around 8-9” of powder snow by yesterday morning Today the snow has blown and cut off a couple of hamlets close by on the N Downs
  14. Looking at the latest MetO forecast, no real snow at all for wales now so think we need to look to the next potential snow event in a few weeks time lol
  15. On 6 February 2018, the BBC began using the MeteoGroup graphics, which include: a seasonal "window on the weather" at the start of each bulletin. green land. high quality moving graphics reproduce detailed weather conditions represented by high-resolution data. Not sure on the data they use tho Id always go through the UKMet BBC are not my go to
  16. Another 10cm of snow fell last night, topping us out at just over 20cms on the grass this morning Temp -5.5 Cloudy and calm Probably the deepest snow since 2010/2018 here in Newnham, Kent IMG_6705.MP4
  17. This next cell has our name on it a little later Looks like a head on collision unless the wind veers more ENE
  18. Each cell is dropping between 1-2” One of the heaviest showers of the spell has just gone overhead Will be interesting to measure the depth come morning Edit: ME9 postcode - Newnham, N. Kent
  19. More than 15 cms out there now and still it comes in Newnham, N Kent ME9 IMG_6693.MP4
  20. As I mentioned yesterday evening, don’t be surprised if you see an Amber warning for those in Kent and E Sussex this afternoon and this evening As expected deep convection now beginning to fire up in a distinct streamer Those in the firing line could add another 10-15cms before the end of the night. Expect the streamer to migrate eastwards over the next 6-12 hours before finally leaving the Kent coast by tomorrow midday James
