Default Troublesome Front

The waving front across Northern England seems to be causing nightmares
for the forecasters. It never seems to do what it's supposed to!

Originally it was supposed to move down south as a weakening feature,
then they said it would push up into Scotland and now it's going to come
back south again, as a weakening feature.
For much of the day it has stayed just to the north of me but now the rain
has started as what I assume is the cold front part begins to move

through.

A dull and cheerless day here, a max of just 14.7C.
I hear it's been 27C down south, that might as well be on the other side

of
the world.


been raining most of the day here in South CUmbria, rough and ready rain
gauge measurements indicate we have had an inch since 10am on top of the
inch we got in the proceeding 12 hours.

Looks like it is set in for the night as well, what wind we have is from the
south west
