Well what an epic this supposed storm was we have had nothing here in North Derbyshire bar abit of a breeze an a bit of rain.

[Chess01]

What a let down in stoke . No wind or rain . Yesterday was worse than this

[fourseasons]

We've had a lot of rain here but in terms of wind, nothing much at all. It really is just a bit of a light breeze.

 

It looks like we've escaped this one.

[TootyFruity]

Absolutely zilch here no wind it was actually windier yesterday in the daytime kept waking in the night to check and nothing diddly squat .

[roymeboy]

Storm !! What Storm. lol......

[Bishop Brennan]

Not much to report by way of wind - in fact it's only slightly breezy out there at the moment - but we had a lot of rain overnight, from 1.5mm when I logged off at one this morning to 16.75mm just seven hours later.

[syed2878]

well i would hardly call this a storm plenty of rain but hardly any wind.

[Summer of 95]

I can pass more wind than that! A few drops of rain and that was it- I thought wed miss the worst but an amber warning for nothing?????

[Dancerwithwings]

What an epic storm that was! Can't wait for the next one

 

Joking apart looking back at September that was So i would rather have some weather than no weather.

 

Plus we've had plenty to talk about   Net Weather as been a touch on the lively side over the last few days...Can't be bad

 

Looking at this afternoon its going to be quite bright, Still on the breezy side though.....ENJOY.

It is nice to see some weather for once. 

 

We seem to be in a 'dead zone' when it comes to weather over this part of the Midlands in recent years, the only thing we seem to get is heavy rain every now and then, every other type of weather hasn't happened.

 

This weather atm, reminds me of the 80's and early 90's type weather, especially seeing as it's near halloween (there always was a gale blowing at halloween :-) )

[Bishop Brennan]

Nice crisp frost would be nice, adding to the crunch underfoot..

 

True, not a single frost so far this autumn, unusual to get this far into the season without experiencing one by now.

Could be another storm for us next weekend

[Laurie61]

Lowest pressure here last night was 978 mb at 04:30 but no wind of note, 12 mm of rain in the last 24 hrs.

[conor123]

A few showers this morning, brighter now, calm, cooler, 10.2c, seemed we did have some heavy downpours last night judging on the radar around 5:30-6:00 but cannot confirm.

[I remember Atlantic 252]

Have a feeling tomorrow will be miles wetter with showers streaming in from cheshire Gap

[Costa Del Fal]

Felt quite chilly especially during the showers today.

 

Not used to these temps here when I have been used to 14-18c for weeks day and night in Falmouth!!!

 

Back in Cornwall tomorrow till mid December.

lucky you, will be drier than the NW Midlands

[Benny123]

Do we know if there are any implications of an active Atlantic in Autumn regarding the Winter months?

[conor123]

Rather lovely for once out there, barely a cloud in sight and feels milder than 10.6c.

[PolarWarsaw]

Seems we are in the perfect gap to miss all showers for most of the afternoon. Should get away with a decent day.

[I remember Atlantic 252]

luckily missed the heavy rain today, seemed very wet around Stockport area, luckily winds too westerly for rain here

[Terminal Moraine]

Very wet in the Buxton area too, around 19mm there since midnight, all of it from showers. Down here at the southern end of the Peak, only 18 miles away, there's been 4.4 mm over the same period.

Just think 4 weeks later and that would have been a dumping of snow for Buxton

[picog]

Lovely day here today; blue skies and sun and NO rain. Hurray!
