South West and Central Southern England Regional Weather Discussion 08 Feb 2021 Onward

[SteveB]

Beautiful morning, a little mist around on the way into work - but looks to be a glorious day to come. 

[Dorsetbred]

Morning All, after an overnight low of 12.9°C at: 06:33, it's climbing nicely, so far up to 22.3°C with RH72%.

The satellite image shows just how clear England is today, apart from the border oop north, norra cloud to be seen..

The sea mist has also lifted, as Old Harry comes back in to view

Reached 26.6°C here so far which amazingly for the time of year is just 0.3°C off being the warmest day of the year, well maybe it's not so amazing after the summer we had. Still plenty of time for that to be achieved this afternoon too.

Virtual business meetings conducted in the garden this is the life.

A bit disappointing here. Whilst its blue skies, its also extremely windy. I wanted to do some trimming and clearing up, but its virtually impossible as it just gets blown everywhere.

Temp is 2°C lower than yesterday as well.

[Dorsetbred]

Nearly the same as yesterday temperature wise, with 27.4°C at: 13:08 as the peak. Light breeze is just knocking the top off the temperatures, a few hours in the New Forest & Lyndhurst, very pleasant..

BUT where did all that traffic come from , the end of the M27 was tailing back on to the Mway, and the A35 at Ringwood was solid right back up beyind Poulner Hill. 20mins queue to get in to Lyndhurst?

Haven't people got work to do, so many caravans on the move into the area.

R & R finishes for me this week, back to work next week, enjoying the sunshine whilst I can..

This has been hovering out to the west for some hours now

That little "Finger" of cloud appears to be out over Lyme Bay from looking at the Sat image..

 

[knocker]

Simply stunning day. One could imagine it is mid summer if not for the weak sun. 

[Lyn-M]

These two days have been the warmest September days in my record here which goes back to 2000.  Yesterday max was 29.8°C and today's 29.5°C, previous high September max was 28°C.

Always good to see the summer "residents" reaching new records...just think the winter folk coming out of hibernation, have missed all this fun..

[*Stormforce~beka*]

Topped out at 30.4c Yippeee!!!!!!

[matt111]

Reached 26.7°C in the end so didn't quite make it to the warmest day of the year but came so close. I think the wind actually helped here as it stopped the sea breeze which would've made it a few degrees cooler than it was. Still nice and warm now at 21.6°C

[Saint coolio]

Had a stunning evening drinking estrella under the stars. Easily over 20C, humid, strong breeze. Could have been june in greece.

[knocker]

Currently dry with Stratus

You must be right on the edge

[Dorsetbred]

Phew after a very warm night with the overnight low of 15.3°C at: 06:50, currently 20.4°C with RH70%. Have all the dors and windows open to get some cool air in the house, currently indoors we have 27.3°C! The 11mph breeze in from the SE and cloudier conditions might help to ease that inside temperature, before I have to close everything down to keep the lurking male spiders away, having already found an amourous male of approx 6.5cms across hiding in the kitchen sink..

So how are we looking 

 

....looks interesting to the SW

This sat image shows we are still only sitting on the sidelines

Meanwhile Blitortung looking good for a little later (maybe) but I do see a gap in that, and that'll be the gap that cruises right over us...

[Lyn-M]

A very warm night here too, fortunately there was a stiff NE breeze coming through the open bedroom window which made sleeping possible!  Min was 17.1°C

Edge of the cloud cover around 07.00GMT as it began to pass over this location.  Currently overcast, humid and 23°C.

[Mapantz]

Blowing an absolute hoolie again today. Not feeling humid because of that.

[Dorsetbred]

Now that gap I was talking about has grown from earlier

And the edge of the cloud has yet to venture that much further

Back to the painting..
