South West and Central Southern England Regional Weather Discussion 01/12/2018 Onwards

[Dorsetbred]

Am I allowed to pick charts in here?IF so, then the "So near, yet so far..." chart below says it all:

[Dorsetbred]

Morning all, a tad breezy out there this morning, partly cloudy and pretty much a flat lined night with Temp: 6.0 °C & Dew Point: 0.3 °C.

[Frosty hollows]

Currently 2c. Fantastic air frost...tops of trees, car roofs and flat roofs all white, but the grass is lovely and green!

[matt111]

Nowhere near cold enough for a frost here last night after a low of 5.2°C. Mostly cloudy with few sunny spells this morning. 6.3°C

Nice to have temperatures down nearer where they should be. 05.2C with sunny spells and feeling bitterly cold in the wind.

Tomorrow may just be what I class as the first 'winter day' i.e. fails to reach 5C for the first time in the season. I do this for spring (first day of 15C) and summer (25C) and autumn ( first day to not reach 15C).

 

[matt111]

Much nicer now with blue skies but that winds certainly a cold one. 

6.4°C 

[CheesepuffScott]

Stayed dry and bright today with a nice chill in the air! Perfect

[Mapantz]

No frost here this morning, just blowing an absolute hoolie all day. Temp reached 7.3°C.

 

A very consistent temp over the last 24 hours.

[matt111]

Well as I said there wasn’t a frost last night but there almost certainly will be tonight. Down to 2.2°C already here.

You're below me!

[Andy Bown]

I wonder if it’s going to be an invisible frost, how low are the dewpoints? Certainly a very dry feeling SE wind.

Didn't know Salisbury had a microclimate.

Don’t tell me the M4 doesn’t block snow

Being below the M4 will annoy me any day but missing out on a white Christmas would be the last straw!

So when the charts show the M4 they really mean M40? Someone must've missed off the 0 when programming the models.
