LT when is Snow arriving?

36 days of Snow arriving soon
in tomorrow papers.

All System Go
Fully Backed up Extra Stock this week
before it gets to us in a few weeks

Here 4 it

LT, I need a long-range forecast for Halloween, then constant updates so I'll know whether to move my party indoors and forego the bonfire and fireworks... Please and thank you x

I don't believe the snow forecast bring on the trumpet to refute this

Its already snowed in Germany and New York state and the longer term forecast puts snow on the Scottish mountains within 2 weeks

I don't believe it. And the mountains aren't exactly the same as what the bull****ting media are trying to say.

Have you seen the articles from the Daily Record?

At the mo its looks good for you. Day max at 13 C and sunny and dry. Night min 7 c but that could change as we are heading out of this HIgh blocked weather and into more unsettled autumnal fare

Well if the Mail is to be believed Livia's bonfire will be covered in snow :worry:

What is the Mail's source? (not that they have EVER been right regarding weather)

arista that is bollocks

:hee:

Pretty windy for Josy tomoz morning
 

Could see the odd 50mph gust in the Central Lowlands tomorrow morning

Actually, snow I could live with. Howling wind and rain not so much. I had a bonfire party a couple of years ago and had loads of jars with nightlight in hanging in the trees. The wind blew every bugger out...

Hurricane Patricia Becomes Strongest Pacific Hurricane in History

Hurricane Patricia became the strongest hurricane ever recorded in the Pacific Ocean late Thursday night less than 200 miles from the coast of Mexico, where residents and authorities are rushing to prepare for what will likely be the strongest hurricane to ever make landfall on that country's Pacific coastline.

The National Hurricane Center released a special advisory at 12:30 a.m. CDT Friday saying Patricia's central pressure had dropped to 892 millibars (26.34 inches of mercury), making it by far the lowest pressure ever measured in a Pacific hurricane. NHC estimated Patricia's maximum sustained winds at 185 mph (295 kph), well above the 157-mph minimum threshold required to make it a Category 5 hurricane.

Amazingly, the Air Force Hurricane Hunter reconnaissance mission responsible for those findings has measured even lower pressures and higher wind speeds since then. At 2:03 a.m. CDT, NHC released a data message reporting that an instrument dropped from the aircraft had measured a pressure of 885 millibars at sea level inside the eye, though not in the exact center.

Shortly before that, winds at flight level (roughly 10,000 feet above the ocean) were measured as high as 221 mph (356 kph) in the eyewall, the zone of powerful winds ringing the clear, relatively calm eye. Hurricane specialist Michael Lowry of The Weather Channel said he believes those may be the highest flight level winds ever recorded by the Hurricane Hunters.

Unprecedented Among Pacific Hurricanes
The revisions came shortly after Air Force Hurricane Hunters flew through the eye of Patricia and reported a sea-level pressure of 894 millibars as measured by a dropsonde inside the eye itself. Wind measurements suggested that the pressure measurement was not in the exact center of the eye and was probably not the absolute lowest pressure, prompting NHC to estimate the minimum central pressure at 892 millibars.

Tropical cyclone strength comparisons are typically based on minimum central pressure. At 892 millibars, Patricia has shattered the Eastern Pacific basin's previous record of 902 millibars set by Hurricane Linda in 1997. While a number of typhoons in the western North Pacific have been stronger, Patricia is by far the strongest recorded in the eastern or central North Pacific, where the term "hurricane" applies.

Hurricane now down to cat 2 (still bad)

"An unconfirmed sustained wind report of 185 mph and a gust to 211
mph was received from a NOAA/NWS Hydrometeorological Automated Data
System (HADS) elevated station (295 ft) at Chamela-Cuixmala, Mexico
near the time of landfall. This observation should be considered
unofficial until it has been quality controlled."

Not me finally having time off work when the F1 is on and it gets cancelled. Well it's looking like it will
