The Weather Thread

[Jezza819]

It's been in the low 60's over night for this entire week so far. For Alabama it feels more like early October than first week of August. Monday morning when I went to work the car said it was 61 degrees.

 

[W3H5]

Perfectly pleasant right now. Until the rains arrive, I suppose.

 

[kolio]

5th heatwave this summer starts today. 🥴

90's near 100 next few days.

The ominous black clouds that have been gathering since lunchtime have finally broken and it's now raining so hard I can barely see the end of my street through the rain. The road outside my flat is now flooded for the first time since I moved here 7 years ago, and I can now hear thunder too...

And, elsewhere in Glasgow:

More heavy rain and flooding in Glasgow today, and this...

Only one downpour today. More clouds than sun but overall a very nice day.

17c here today, with 18mm of rain across last night and this morning. Sucks the rain didn't stick around though. This is the first day in a couple of weeks that my hay fever hasn't acted up. 😅

It has hit 31°C/88°F here today. Totally unexpected, especially after I moved my WFH desk back upstairs where it gets stupidly hot as soon as the sun comes out.

It hit 28°C in Glasgow today, after weeks of fairly miserable weather - that's got to be some kind of record for September in Scotland.

When I got home, my living room thermometer read 24.4°C so I opened my window fully about an hour ago and now it's 24.5°C At 7.10 pm, that's pretty crazy for Glasgow.

Still, it has given me an excuse to crack open an ice cold bottle of wine.

 

[Northstar]

There was frost on the windows of my van this morning.

 

[Barra333]

I had my first frosty windscreen last week. Not happy.

 

[Spacegoat]

Rain. 100mm worth of it over the past day and half. Looks like there's still a bit more to come over the next few days.

 

[W3H5]

I shivered while smoking on the balcony in my underpants this morning. It’s getting cooler.

The Met Office has issued a rare red weather warning for high winds and snow across much of the UK today, starting from around 3pm until tomorrow morning.

It's the first Red warning since 'The Beast from The East' 5 years ago, and parts of Scotland are due to experience wind gusts of up to 100 mph.

My Mum is phobic of the wind and unfortunately it looks like her part of the world will get a direct hit later tonight...

Could be worse - anywhere with a north facing coastline is getting blown off the map.

Got a good 5-6 inches of this white crap overnight

 

[zzz_pt]

Pretty bad

 

[Spacegoat]

Cold. Forecast for today claimed we'd reach 22°C. Which obviously for this time of year down here, is unusually cold anyway. But it feels even cooler than that with the wind. Never imagined I would be wearing a hoodie in late November. What a time to be alive.

 

[Swagger897]

The wind out here makes it feel below freezing :/

 

[CoopR_26]

it be cold, like 0 Celsius

 

[Jimlaad43]

First bit of ice and snow of the winter here. Driving down a country road this morning in -2°C the traction control light just kept flashing because of the ice. I drive a low-powered FWD Citroen, so there isn't exactly much power to play with there. Braking was also fun with the ABS having a fit on the ice too.

Still, this is mild winter so far, so hopefully I'll heed this warning for if the temperature drops further.

 

[CodeRedR51]

This is about how its going here.

And less than a week later I'm sitting here with the air con cranked up. Supposed to cool off again though during the week with some rain.

It is warm, walking outside is near impossible but there are people who don’t have a choice unfortunately. These are the moments where you realize that this area really isn’t suitable for humans to live.

Do you still feel the humidity even now with temperatures lower? Dry heat would have been much more bearable. There is also the risk of climate change. It's quite impressive what has been managed to be done in a short space of time, hopefully not a double whammy of cooling the place is causing it to heat up more quickly to unbearable levels. At least public transport should get much better by the end of the decade.

Anyway, hope you have a wonderful day.

Thunderstorm warning for tonight. Rain on the forecast for the next couple of days after that. Thankfully the weekend is looking like it's going to be rather nice.

 

[SPhilli911]

Enjoying the first snow from my new apartment, it's a pretty nice view from my patio and I like to take photos of different conditions. Sadly, my neighbor seemed to have forgotten to put his winter tires on his truck and it ruined my beauty shot.

 

[unit-one]

Late November and early December this year is very cold and snowy. -13 to -20 degrees Celsius. Usually it still rains during this time.

 

[Spacegoat]

Oh well, looks the cooler weather and the rain have gone (for the most part anyway). The proper hot Summer weather is starting to roll in.

 

[TB]

Meanwhile it hit 65 here in Indianapolis today. Late December and I didn't have to wear a coat.
