Pleasant weather here again today, there've been a few occassions this summer when we've had better weather over here than they've had in (eastern) England. Looks like ending with a wet and windy interruption come Sunday:

That'd be interesting in the middle of winter. Very autumnal nevertheless.

Im BACK Ya'll - so what that means is that the Winter cant be too far away!  So.......whats your predictions this winter for us in South Wales?

 

I don't know about the winter, but the second half of this month is looking like it will turn hot and sunny, which will be a positive in my opinion after the cold and wet weather of the last few days. Be nice (and cheap) to have the heating off until a bit later into the autumn. Winter will come in its own good time, whether cold or mild we will just have to wait and see.

My guess is December to start followed by January and then February. Posted Image

 

Beyond that no one really knows this far out.

well its been a while since I posted on here, nights drawing in fast guys and only 90 days until xmas, I wonder if we will have a mild wet winter or a cold snowy one. lets just hope we don't have to put the heating on for a few more weeks as I read today there is going to be a 8% rise in gas prices.

I remember the 16th+ 17th of jan this year when we couldn't type in this forum quick enough with the impending snow that was forecast. I cannot believe how quickly we will soon be back to those short winter days and long winter nights. here's hoping for another cracking winter again!

Yes the second half of Sept has been a real boost not having to have the heating on in the hotel here, some really mild nights (min of 15.5c on the 22nd, but still a pretty decent 10.3c last night). Personally I'd prefer if it stays that way through Oct and then goes cold from November onwards. First frost is always exciting though, has been mid-Oct here the last 2 years, wouldn't be surprised if we had the same again.

does anybody else think that with the mild weather expected to continue for a few more weeks, that winter this year is just going to hit us in the face this year or could we be in for a mild winter?

3 out of the last 4 winters have been pretty good. This year we've had a great winter,decent spring, fantastic summer - seems like we've got our seasons back to me at long last.

 

I'm backing a mild Winter to the middle of December a cold snap over the Christmas period followed by prolonged periods of cold in the New Year. Based on nothing more than the fact we've had some of the best winters for what seems like decades to me in the last few years and Andy's confidence in snow  mobiles as a business proposition.Posted Image

Interesting times ahead could have some fireworks in the next24hrsAlso Interesting times ahead concerning low solar activity how it will effect  the winters to come ,with very low solar activity happening we could well see the jet stream go south for the winter with a more northerly flow ,sending our west to southwest winds over Spain.We need to see if ocean phrase El Nino or a La NIina occur,These cause mild or cold phases that effect the weather all over the World.
