North West Regional Weather Discussion 18/12/13

[itsnowjoke]

Radar shows the main band of rain well across the region now.As for me, as close to Yorkshire as possible without falling into it, I'd expect it to reach here within the next 30 minutes or so and bring on a wet afternoon and evening.

chucking it down here

I'm getting tired of this crappy mild weather now. Its been like this since October. Hopefully by the end of this month it will become very cold by then. If not I'm gonna get RAGE!!

 

 

 

Me raging at the end of month ^^^

It would of been nice if all this precip was snow.

Got down to beach on walney near caravan site featured on north west news , road washed away and about 3 meters of ballast below it , another bashing and chalets would be destroyed but good news is they're getting see defences in a months time ...

Raw feeling day today, grounds quite sodden but we've not had the winds or rain some have experienced near coastal areas.  Maybe a sign of the atlantic quietening down mid month but that won't guarantee anything wintry.  I expect it will get colder at some point this winter and never again towards the end of Feb, will I think winter is almost over and spring around the corner after what happened last March-early April.... so still plenty of opportunities yet to see some of the white stuff.

Bird house is having a right dance about its become really loose

[carl1980]

Looks like there could be a squall line around 8-9pm looking at the met office radar

[toggerob]

Difference on the RADAR since a hour ago is pretty evident, strong returns embedded within that lot. Unfortunately most of it ending up on already saturated ground.

[Mokidugway]

Pretty wild evening out glad I came home from manchester earlier than planned

[gareth73]

Well tonight is worse than are last storm here in Manchester. The rain is being driven in by a strengthening wind.  Some flooding again in the UK must happen.  I am sure the met said winds would not be strong, boy these are.!!

[carl1980]

The clouds are moving at some speed

[itsnowjoke]
