Wales, the Midlands & South West England Weather Discussion

[Barbmac]

I see some of you had a noisy night! Right now there's thick fog and heavy rain in Malvern. Temp 14.2^oC.

[jtay]

A few rumbles around again now.

 

The radar is showning the excitement ~10 miles to the SW, but everything I can hear is a few miles NE.

[Tobertron]

Missed out on all the storms so far, bar a few distant rumbles here and there. Seems there has been activity not far north, south, east and west of here but I am stuck in the middle with some light rain. Oh well!

[Polar Maritime]

A nice heavy prolonged shower just passed. I'd nearly forgotten what it looked like!

[Dorsetbred]

Activity line between Salisbury & Oxford, quick lets go chase....

[Cactus]

Some very light showers, not enough to register.

[jtay]

Blimey, Salisbury seems to be the centre of the universe today. We're off again...

[conor123]

So much for 'warm & thundery today'  , absolutely vile day, thick mist all day, poor visibility, dark, non stop drizzle and a max of 16.4c 

[I remember Atlantic 252]

today dominated by sea fret, expect same tomorrow, until changes from the north on sunday

Cloudzilla stratocumulus mania from North East Sunday, sun never arrives till back in work Monday 

 

Thick mist, 150 meter visibility again now, hovered at 16c for the past 12 hours now.

[TonyH]

You did get it quite poor today Conor, cloudy here too but dry and reached 21c!

[A.J]

repost of mine from the convective thread as the relevance is for this region.....

 

 

a quick heads up for central southern regions.....on the Points West forecast, Ian Fergusson (fergieweather) has alluded to the chance of thunderstorms developing over the next few hours in the west country & south Midlands tracking eastwards on or near the M4 corridor........nothing showing up currently on radar as such, but according to his forecast it's in the next hour or to that things may start to happen

[Summer of 95]

We had an hour or so of quite heavy rain about 1pm, but otherwise a dank dull humid nothing day. No thunder, no sun, no wind, almost no daylight.

Dreadful weather. Overcast, damp, drizzly and 17°C All for a bit of thunder and 3mm of rain yesterday. 

[MP-R]

Looks like that's it on the weather 'front' for the rest of this month. At least Thursday night's thunderstorms have prevented this month from being a write off. Dull and grey again today.

[TonyH]

Write off!!??

Zero rain here, very sunny and very warm with plenty more dry reasonably warm weather to come!

Looks like you're in a good spot there Tony!

 

[TonyH]

Light rain just to the east for several hours yesterday, more approaching from the NW this morning bet it fizzles out? 

Certainly counts as an eventful month IMHO a month with no rain, mean max 21.0c almost unheard of here in the Autumn

[ARTDEMOLE]

Overcast. 17.7c. Humidity 91%rh.

[Dancerwithwings]

Overcast, low cloud, drizzle... Wish the front coming down from the North West would just get a move on

[conor123]

Charts trending towards a warm, sunny weekend next weekend hopefully at long last!!!!

Another sunless day today, max of 17.6c, major improvements after tomorrow as wind finally shifts, perhaps 1-3c in rural spots tomorrow night.

 

Edit: Heavy shower now randomly, not much on radar so bit of a surprise.

Anticyclonic gloom doesn't float my boat I'm afraid. I much preferred last September which was a lot more mobile and varied. I can't actually remember the last time I saw truly blue sky.
