Another drab grey day in London, hopefully a bit of thunder later to see out what's been a very forgettable month

Key Metrics overnight and into the early hours are,

 

post-5986-0-28368700-1440938475_thumb.gi

 

Which means moderate convective potential (K=29) with likely thunderstorms (TT=43) Moisture content is favourable (DP=12.3) in a warm air mass (T=15.1) Biggest worry for an event is a cap (CIN=26) but changes in wind direction and speed with height (DLS 0-6km somewhere between 25-30m/s) is likely to overcome this; given the presence of quite high DLS supercells are not ruled out. Indeed, should storms form, opportunity for supercells/tornadoes look possible (SREH > 100, = 166) which suggests large hail, strong winds from outflow boundaries, and frequent CG lightning. There's plenty of potential for a lot of rain, too (PW=3.68)

 

Watching that CIN, though ...

What to say? Cloudy, cool and wet. At last the garden looks like it's got some green grass on it, and bubs sunflower, has well a flower on it.

 

Sunday is a good day for rain.

Returned from my Hols in Spain & Portugal today!

Having driven there & back I got to experience the change of temperature at every stop we made. It was incredible. Something you can't experience or are aware of when flying.

France, Spain & Portugal = hot & sunny! Back to cloud & gloom as usual as we approached the tunnel at Calais. Although the UK is one of the best places to live in the world, in terms of weather we really are one of the most frustratingly placed geographically in Europe when it comes to warm summers & cold winters!

Mid France southwards vegetation was very dry and parched after a hot and dry summer, puts things into perspective when members from this region wish for ''more rain'' at the sight of a yellow patch on their lawn!

And we have just put the central heating on. Shocking!

I don't blame you Ben! The problem is, when you are away and the house doesn't get its usual heat input of cooking, showering, TV on, people, etc., etc., for a couple of weeks - it cools down! And the temps we've been experiencing lately have been no great shakes, so with no compensating warmth, the house slowly cools down. And when you get home from a holiday where they get PROPER summers and warmth, it feels positively cold.  :)

Exactly 'blessed' when you have been experiencing 35c & high humidity for the past 2 weeks, today in Hertfordshire feels freezing to me and of course as you say because the house hasn't been lived in, it adds to the the cold feel.

Just see the BBC weather. More rain & more cool weather. Welcome home Ben...

Pretty sure you'd have that window closed if you just returned from sunny skies with temperatures of mid to high 30s and searing humidity.

Feels like late autumn out there for me.

Good evening everyone,

As our youngest son and his 4 year old is staying with us over the bank holiday weekend we decided to go to Walton-on-Naze for the day. It was cloudy for the duration of our visit with a cold wind straight off the sea. The waves were quite rough too.

In no way was it warm today. Back in Chelmo it was cloudy all day and none too warm either.

Kind Regards

Dave

Hi Dave...

 

That reminds me of umpteen holidays (1960s) I spent in Frinton, Holland-on-Sea, Clacton and Walton...If it wasn't thundering down from a green-black sky, it was sunny, windy and bone-chillingly cold. Of course, the day we went home was always a scorcher! :D
