Stormy Weather II

[DracoM]

Horizon to horizon drizzle-thick dreech.

Unexpected moderate shower just now, although I had noticed the sky taking on an almost thundery appearance earlier. Much warmer than yesterday, and rather humid with it.

A showery day today. I didn’t manage the Vampire Clinic, yesterday, so going today.

Perfect early Autumn day here so far!!

Another nice day, somewhat milder than previous days. Cardigan removed on walk.

Substantial rain here last night - could actually hear it through closed windows. Residual clag now breaking up to give a warm, humid, almost windless afternoon. Too early to announce what and where for the weekend, but with the jet stream following a large anticlockwise Atlantic trip originating between Canada and Greenland to reach us all from the SW it should continue unprecedentedly mild for October but with rain at some time in most areas. I shall have to get my woodland walks underway soon before the paths turn into quagmires.

One of the hottest afternoons for WEEKS! Beautiful among the fells and streams.
Yes, I did know it was 'dreich' - thx for correction - a hasty posting that should have been corrected.

Another nice day - sunny now and only a sprinkle of rain on my walk this morning.

Thx for the thx.

Enjoying a pint in the Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel after a beautiful afternoon in Mickleden.

Pleasant conditions for my 3-mile cycle to E Dulwich Sainsburys for my big weekly groceries provision this afternoon, with just a few light raindrops on the return journey. What really is remarkable this year is the extension of daytime temperatures regularly exceeding 15C this far into October. By now I would normally be returning to hot cooked meals, but this has meant being able to stick with salads, thus saving huge amounts on electricity!

Internet connection keeps cutting out - this has been happening rather a lot lately.

Sorry to hear this, SA. I hope you get the problem sorted quickly.

Yet another nice sunny day here.

Thanks - it has sorted itself out. I was wondering if it had anything to do with the big cosmic flash that was reported as interfering with electronics in some parts of the world.

Early sunshine has now given way to high cloud spreading from the south, which must be the advance sheet of cirrostratus announcing a warm front moving in this evening.

"Big cosmic flash"...


... where is a copper with a suitably placed helmet when you need one?

Woken up in the night by heavy rain. It rained continuously from the evening, throughout the night - I can't remember the last time it rained 'properly' like this. Glad that it's fallen when it has.

Anyway - more good weather today. High of 17.
