Is anyone watching the Stargazing programme?  Apparently it could be possible that we could see the Aurora Borealis either tonight or tomorrow night... EVEN DOWN HERE IN THE SOUTH!!!

 

I am so excited!  I really want to see this!!!

Firstly; go careful around those lanes! I drive that way to work every morning and lost my car at one bend due to all the mud on the road, it's treacherous!

Secondly; please god, no snow! Things are dreadful around here, it's beyond a joke now. Kids can't get to school, a lot of roads are impassable, people are unable to leave their villages and we even have the bloody sun newspaper sending big breasted women holding cans of beer down on boats to try and get their way in to villages to try and get interviews, this didn't go down well with the villagers! Even the male ones

Snow means more floods, we just need some peace and quiet now.

 

Only if it melts... A prolonged freeze would allow most of the excess ground water to drain away..

[Somerset Squall]

As much as I love snow and get excited like a child when I see it falling, I have never wanted it less. I would quite literally like no precipitation to fall for the next 6 months please.

 

EDIT: Well it seems I only got 4 minutes! About sums up the last month really.

I didn't actually see her until the report. People here may had seen the funny side if things weren't so bad and for so long.

[Mumbles]

There has been some lightning flashes here in the last hour!

Co2 levels are always highest around the 12z 

 

What station measures Co2 anyway?

Latest from Ian Fergusson;

"Colder spell next week nothing unusual for Jan, stress @metoffice. More pronounced to NE. Snow for various areas possible; ditto rain in S. The Express hyperbole well over-the-top, unsurprisingly. Yes, a different mode of winter weather but hardly anything exceptional."

[Andy Bown]

Well a beautiful, dry, sunny spells and scattered clouds day! What a relief!

 

10mm more yesterday/overnight so 126mm this month.

[Beast of Plympton]

Today is a welcome break from the normal of late.... Chill in the air and sun in the sky....

It's a worldwide project to help people monitor there way of living as well as the weather. Being in CO2 levels of 1000 to 2000 make you feel tired, sleepy, lathargic, even give you headaches, so it's good to give the room ventilation. The app let's you know all of this via notifications, it's a fantastic bit of equipment.

Totally understand. I wouldn't see the funny side either. Even the fields alongside westonzoyland road are full to bursting, any more rain and that road is going to be impassable as well.Are things getting better out there?

My friend that lives down there around Langport has had the water a few feet from his front door but he says it is dropping now.

 

From the Mendips it looks like we have a new inland sea down that way.

No I am still skiing so keep the faith the cold is coming    I really hope we see some winter though soon as it has been dire and I'm sure people would agree a few cm of snow and cold crisp weather is much better than a few more inches of rain..

It was dry for just over 12 hours which thankfully included the entire daytime period! However some sharp showers before dawn and now this evening! It seems that even with a ridge of HIGH pressure the weather finds a way to make it rain!!
