Atlantic Storms February 2014


Coast

Recommended Posts

ECM has the potential storm on Monday down to 939mb, just north of Ireland. Seems to be significantly deeper on this one, which is probably why it's further north.

 

As if the ones we've had up until now weren't bad enough..

You don't get much deeper than that with the isobars so closely packed, could be overdoing it a tad but thats normally what the GFS is famous for!

Are we looking at more coastal flooding with that storm?

Hell of a blow job.

 

 

I am sick of wearing wellies.

I am sick of muddy or flooded towpaths.

I am sick of moving boats sideways (called crabbing by us in the know) against ridiculous winds.

I really would like some ice on the canals and some crunchy crusty topping to the ground I walk on.

I really would like to get my thermals on and not wear waterproofs for weeks on end.

 

I moved a boat over Christmas/New Year and had one sunny crispy day.

Today had to get the chainsaw out to continue, and yes, guess what, it started to rain again

Who do I see to get a refund on this crap Winter.

I saw a line of very heavy rain on RainRadar, pure white passing over Carmarthen - it suggested at least 50+mm an hour - but i guess that it ran out of colours Posted Image

Perfect timing with the front, strong PVA/vortmax has been progged all day, really ramps rain intensity up!post-15177-0-75399600-1391717545_thumb.p

I certainly don't envy you in this weather M, done many many weeks or 2 weeks on most canals at varying times of the year, usually spring or autumn half terms but yuk glad I decided against living on a canal 20 years ago.

Latest on the late Friday and Saturday storm,

Friday 9pm

Saturday 3am

 

post-6686-0-63393700-1391716820_thumb.pn

 

Saturday 6am to 12pm is the time period where the strongest winds are expected to arrive the second round of this storm. It will move in from the West during early Saturday bringing 60 to 70mph gusts along the coasts of Ireland, Wales and the SW of England,

 

post-6686-0-53893800-1391717056_thumb.pn

 

Saturday 12pm to Sunday 6am Southern Ireland and all of England and Wales see inland gusts of around 40 to 55mph meanwhile the coasts 60 to 70mph is possible. After 6am on Sunday the winds will ease off as the day goes on.

 

post-6686-0-88040200-1391717218_thumb.pn

 

The rainfall totals over the next 3 days does look bad for Wales, Western parts of Ireland, along the South coast of England and some places in Northern England.

 

post-6686-0-32926500-1391717350_thumb.pn

 

The next storm may arrive on Tuesday the ECM has been going on about it for a day now so lets take a look at the situation,

 

GFS: Doesn't form a storm anything like the ECM in fact it doesn't go for a low pressure system at all.

UKMO: Sends in a 960mb low across Southern Ireland and looks similar to yesterdays ECM run.

post-6686-0-98577700-1391717528_thumb.gi

JMA: Not interested.

GEM: Forms something like the UKMO but weaker.

NAVGEM: Similar path to the UKMO but about 10mb lower and sends it straight across England

post-6686-0-93584000-1391717642_thumb.gi

CMA: Also sends a deep low over England.

post-6686-0-86903000-1391717679_thumb.pn

ECM: Only one to send it that far North and is the deepest out of the bunch tonight giving Ireland storm force winds.

post-6686-0-45324000-1391717788_thumb.pn

 

Lots of disagreements between them tonight just have to wait and watch now.

If CMA comes off, that will surely bring scenes similar to 1987, that would seriously rival it!

ECM ensembles are out the control run completely downgrades the low hitting Ireland,

 

post-6686-0-70980400-1391718236_thumb.pn

 

Out of the 50 members 10 show something similar to the ECM run with a storm to the NW. 11 members show a storm hitting England and Wales although much weaker. The remaining 29 members don't go for anything note worthy.

Looks like the ECM op run is over doing that low significantly thankfully

Yes of courses there will be lot of amounts up to 100+mm/hr of rainfall out there but just check them out with the meteociel accumulation precipitation. Edited by Storm Track

Seems like it may have been overdone, but with the UKMO going for a fairly potent storm, and the GFS starting to catch on, I still think it might be a problem.

 

If it's weaker, it may also track further south, which isn't good news for the already battered south west.
