South West and Central Southern England Regional Weather Discussion 21/05/2018 Onwards

[matt111]

Sudden change in the last half an hour, the dull morning has been replaced by mostly clear skies and it feels pleasant. 14.8°C

90% of our garden is shaded now even at this time of day. Crammed into the sunny 10% are 2 airers of washing and me sitting enjoying it while my boy plays with his diggers, tractors and trucks and shifts stones everywhere! 

Glorious afternoon, sunny with fast moving Stratocumulus, breezy, 15.7c .

Hope today goes ok for you M. 

Thanks mate. This was a family friend. Mil's funeral is in 3 weeks

[Frosty hollows]

It's 15.6c in N.London

[Mapantz]

The skies look very threatening on my webcam but no rain in the vicinity. It managed 16.2°C at lunchtime, cooler now, but the wind getting up too. Hoping some heavy rain will wash the neighbours' patios down.

It looked very threatening to the east of here not long ago but it’s cleared again now.  

And why would they need washing down...

Just had a good read in the Strat thread, GP’s post most encouraging. Could we see a disturbed PV in December? Bloody hope so, would make for a potentially very interesting Christmas/New year. If colds your thing that is

Long way off, I’ll be back on fb by then .

I've got a bet on you being back on in less than three weeks

[Super_Uwe]

Meh. Pretty dull all day today. Bit better in the middle of the day but gloomy rain and murk soon returned.

Possibly some nasty weather later on this evening and tonight? May even see some thunder and lightning if we're lucky!

[matt111]

It got dark extremely quickly just now, think it clouded over just as it started getting dark which made it seem more sudden than usual. Still a mild 13.6°C and dry for now at least.

Definitely isn’t -3.6°C

Sooner than that if PSV carry on like this

[Mapantz]

Getting windier now. 30mph+ gusts.

All that cleaning up I did.. just looked outside with the torch and seen the contents of Wareham forest littered in the garden. lol

[matt111]

It took longer than the radar suggested but the rains finally reached here and the winds picked up a bit too.

Harry to the rescue

Very strong winds here with rain.    Fences are rocking and rolling. (Again!)

[karlos1983]

Yup definitely bit blowy out, gates annoying me but I must remain strong, if I pretend to be asleep for long enough, the wife will break and go outside to fix it

Storm forecast for the region tomorrow. Just when I'd given up hope of seeing anything before this year is out

Yes it's windy but I didn't think it was windy enough to start hearing things banging around outside but it is. Not sure what the noise is though. 

[jethro]

With a bit of luck this wind tonight and what's forecast tomorrow will see the last of the leaves fall, bored now with clearing them up at work.

[Dorsetbred]

Morning all a damp and mild 12.6C start to the day. A red eye start off the northern climes..

[Barbel]

Thunder and torrential rain here at Colyton. Plus hail.

Edited November 7, 2018 by Barbel
Hail

[karlos1983]

Looks like being a really interesting weather day and I’ve got to head east to Sussex now, not back until tomorrow, Booooo . 

[Dormouse]

A very wild and windy night with torrential rain battering velux window.

clearing away and calmer now, for a while anyway.

more on the way I believe.

[karlos1983]

Naughty GFS! I like it’s idea, but I think it’s being a tad premature! But wow what a chart

No idea who shay is ?‍♂️

[Evening thunder]

Despite the stats for this Autumn not looking bad, the weather seems to have had a knack of writing off whole days (usually at weekends like last Sunday once again), but anything intense enough to be interesting has missed here. Last night all the heavy stuff went west of here, and has been going just east of here for a few hours, and now just west of here again...
