Wales, the Midlands & South West England Weather Discussion

[conor123]

Overcast and bright with a much stronger breeze than recently, 14.8c.

Any reason why there's so much convective stratocumulus exploding from the east behind the main cloud again, usually by this time of year there's next to nill of it but it's exploding and spreading out like it's Mid July?

Sun as just started to show it's face here, wasn't expecting anything/if anything till this afternoon....

 

This will be the main headache for the forecasters this coming week... Cloud cover (will it, won't it)

 

Temps looking good though and may warm up even higher come the end of the week

Sunny here, but some high cloud trying to edge in from the South East like yesterday.

I found a site a while ago, which logs my Netatmo data. They've added some fancy ways of showing data, including this choropleth..

Hazy sunshine a keen breeze but warm again, currently on 19c. 

The feared breakdown never really happens in the coming week:

18.2c Now that the sun has made an appearance. ...

[Dancerwithwings]

Once again the cloud has invaded from the East.... Back to full on cloud cover and when the sun is in, with that breeze it's a little on the cool side  http://www.sat24.com/en-gb/gb

Yup barely 5 minutes of sunshine all weekend here, by contrast West Wales gorgeous again,

Definitely know where to go next weekend now.

You should get a sunshine recorder Conor it would show remarkably localised low totals..

Lovely mostly sunny still here 20c we have been spoilt this month still no rain!

[Charlton Adam snow]

Lots of cloud, interspersed with sunny spells - feeling warm at 21c, even with the breeze! Bone dry again - ground is rock hard (trying to dig!)

Looking interesting for some thundery showers next week and up to 25c - autumn can wait,

Rather an intriguing forecast from Ian Fergusson on Points West. I had thought this region would be waiting until Thursday for any chance of showers however there are scattered showers likely to move up from the South later tonight and the threat is there through tomorrow with him mentioning the risk of them being thundery.

 

I would expect the initial showers to come from AltCas type cloud given the direction they are coming from, unfortunately the likely low cloud/mist in the morning will make the interesting clouds invisible.

Also mention on the national forecast of scattered possibly thundery showers if the sun is prevalent tomorrow. Fingers crossed! It tried to rain here this afternoon but only managed spots, albeit big spots.

[BlueHedgehog074]

Been a misty and foggy morning so far, but seems to be slowly brightening up. Hopefully a thundery shower will break through later and defeat the storm shields of those who want one.

[knocker]

Quite a pleasant morning. A fair bit of Ci but the Ac from earlier has mainly gone. Temp 16C with a breeze from the ESE.

[Mapantz]

18°C and hazy sunshine.

[knocker]

Cloud thickening here with a veil of Cs.

[BlueHedgehog074]

Bright and sunny with heaps of blue sky around now. Yey! Temperature around 16*C.

[ARTDEMOLE]

Sunny now the murk and mist has thinned.. 19.4c.
