10.30 this evening, and as (bad) luck would have it, I was out with the dog.
Some magnificent arcs across the top of the cloud bank approaching from the north-west. Quick scurry back home since herself was none too happy about it. All quietened down for now. Just plugged the AWS into the computer, and the temperature at 10.50 was 19.5C. Now 11.10, and it has risen back up to 20.0C, and still rising. A very uncomfortable night in store I would imagine. jim, Northampton |

The Mrs phoned from Bedford and said there was thunder around so when I checked the radar I was suprised to see the stuff that developed, over a short period, Rugby area and running north east. A rather refreshing 14C outside R Hilton |

With such a long lasting Atlantic anomally I suppose it is worth reapraising events. No doubt this persistent anticyclonic weather over Greenland, we shall have to get used to short lived weather phenomena until the ice depth is rebuit? Whatever the cause or case, the fact that storms at sea/ground surface levels are short lived at the moment is due to the flaccid nature of sea level pressures; is that not so? |

Joe Egginton Wolverhampton 175m asl That lot arrived here just before 5 o'clock this evening. Torrential rain for about 20 minutes, but luckily no thunder. It dumped 6.0mm, with a peak of 27mm/hr. [Note to me: much more rain like this and I'll have get up there and seal the joints on the guttering. It plays havoc with the hanging baskets on the back of the house.] A 10 minute shower a couple of hours earlier caught me out with the dog AGAIN! She has a lot to answer/be thankful for. jim, Northampton |

R Hilton It's already linked to the racecourse, unfortunately, they've had a landslip and the trains only goto Gothrington at the mo. |
