That would be annoying

No you are fine but FOG could be a hazard

That is my 3 hour weather station 3 yearly check complete. I now have all new thermometers, a new soil thermometer sleeve, a new glass rain measure, my stevenson screen has been thoroughly cleaned too

But on the downside I have some medium sized trees to drastically prune to the SW of the station or it will affect my reliability score

Perfect weather for my Halloween party thanks LT... you were right. Dry, not too cold and come 10pm it was foggy... very atmospheric.

What is your opinion on articles like this Trump?

http://www.express.co.uk/news/weathe...er-forecast-UK

The Express is the worst for it, constant scaremongering and completely over exaggerating everything weather related, I mean who are the weather forecasters they speak of? because they are yet to get it right.

The Met Office has warned drivers to prepare for more disruption and difficult conditions as snow and ice falls over the UK

Umm no, no they havent

The Express troll their readers every year in the same way. They use a guy called James Madden from "Exacta Weather"

Essentially he is a guy in his bedroom making sh1t up. He tells them some crap and they exaggerate it massively.

Its like getting medical advice from a guy in the pub rather than a doctor


The Express never go to the MO as they MO would tell them to feck off and that they cant tell them the weather in advance like that - obviously that is not good for a troll weather headline.


Below is the best advanced forecast available by the MO
__________________________________________________ _______

Forecast summary
Outlook for the UK over the next 6-30 days
UK Outlook for Monday 9 Nov 2015 to Wednesday 18 Nov 2015:
Unsettled weather will dominate across the UK through much of this period, particularly so in northern and western areas where bouts wet and windy weather will be frequent and only briefly interspersed with drier and brighter spells. Further south and east, longer fine and dry periods are expected, although still with occasional wet and windy spells. In any more settled weather there is a risk of overnight fog developing along with some patchy frost. Temperatures are likely to be near to just above average, although with some chilly nights where skies are clear. Later in the period the northwest-southeast variation in the weather described above is likely to re-orientate to more of a north-south split.

UK Outlook for Thursday 19 Nov 2015 to Thursday 3 Dec 2015:
The second half of November and start of December are likely to be characterised by a north-south split in the weather. The north is likely to see periods of wet and windy weather with a risk of gales at times, although with some drier spells are likely too. The south will probably have the greatest amount of dry and fine weather, but even here some rain will pass through at times. Temperatures will generally be around average, although there could be some cold nights where skies become clear leading to a risk of frost and fog.

Going to be quite windy down Josys area tomoz am and anyone in NE England and SE Scotland

"The southwesterly wind is expected to become strong during Monday morning, with gales and locally severe gales over high ground, but also some very gusty winds to the east of high ground as well. Gusts of 50-60 mph are likely with a risk of isolated gusts of 65-70 mph in exposed areas of southeast Scotland and the far north of England. "

Not at the moment no

[Crimson Dynamo]

The first time the MO has named a storm will hit Thurs into Fri


Southwesterly severe gales will develop later on Thursday, increasing storm force for a time as they veer westerly overnight into early Friday. Gusts of 70 to 80 mph are likely, and perhaps 90 mph across exposed locations. Winds will begin to ease and veer more westerly across the Western Isles and the mainland on Friday morning and across the Northern Isles on Friday afternoon.

Lightning associated with frequent showers will be an additional hazard, whilst large waves may lead to over-topping along some coasts and causeways.

The public should be prepared for disruption to transport and perhaps power supplies.
