What About This ******* Weather?

Huge storm. https://www.netweather.tv/live-weather/radar

 

Looks like one for @reids

What do you make of Storm’s strengths and weaknesses? I think he blows a bit hot and cold.

 

Yes an interesting radar. Seems best in the westerlies, but definite weakness in the east where output is very intermittant. Should be a breeze to remove that cloud and improve those stats.

 

High precipitation stats, doesn't bode well for the future

 

Bit wet behind the ears for me.

 

Has this **** stopped raining yet.

 

I've just looked out the window and the fish swimming past confirmed that yes, it's stopped.

 

Looks like he'll break in high pressure situations.

 

Hurricane Kirk doing its thing out in the mid-Atlantic right now but potentially planning a visit for Wednesday/Thursday, with a small chance it could still technically be a tropical storm…

 

Does that mean 35 degrees and ducking coconuts being blown from neighbouring trees ?

 

Oh! We're going to Barbados. Oh! Back to the island.

 

Nothing frightening on the bbc 5 day weather forecast - you'd have thought someone would let them know about the carnage to come ?

 

It's shifted south apparently, though still following broadly the same sweep upwards towards Scandinavia.

 

So you mean Harrow and Stanmore will bear the brunt ?!

 

About an inch of snow so far here in the Chilterns and still snowing heavily.

 

That means it is heading my way !

 

Nothing but cold rain here in Surrey Hills.

 

What altitude are "Surrey Hills" ? Settling snow is only on the higher ground I think (we are 200m above sea level).

 

Snow has settled in Watford. It's been quite heavy through rush hour

 

We're in Hindhead, 198m up.

 

Ah just 2 tantalising metres short then

 

It snows upstairs in our house but not downstairs

 

Snowing hard in Bristol.

 

We had snow here for around an hour at lunchtime (Surrey/Hampshire border) but it didn't stick.
Used to like riding my bike to the cafe at the top of the Devil's Punchbowl, some lovely views

 

Don't know about relative altitude, but I'm in the Farnborough/Camberley area. It didn't stick thankfully

 

Literally 5 mins away, it is lovely.

 

Right, that's it. We need to form A3 Hornets. We could pod, hang around in the Hindhead Tunnel, take on the A3 Hatters etc etc etc

 

I'll meet you all at Thursley Common near Elstead next time I come down to see the lizards on the boardwalks, and the birds there.

 

People like Andre the Giant and Big Show might see a light dusting on their heads if they visit the area.

 

Three Horseshoes is a lovely pub.

 

2 inches of snow last night. FFS Gino, sort it out.
