Welcome to the land of Bristol Channel / M4 corridor showers AJ! Don't go expecting many storms, although your well placed for days

that have pulse storms under unstable SW flows.

Today was the 7th day out of 8 with no sunshine and tomorrow looks like another!

It looks utter rubbish... my only hope is that at least we are going to be in a cool wet spell with polar maritime air often so there is always a chance of a surprise marginal event as we move later into november.

Waves at all. I am in Amsterdam and all my mates are asleep! Sad state of affairs. Anyway i am here as i have just seen the S word on twitter from Joe *who shall not be named* any likelihood? Not back in UK til Wednesday so cannot geek over charts

What a ghastly cold, wet morning to wake up to.

This is the sort of day I hate getting out of my warm, comfy bed for. Becomes hard this time if year.

No S forecast within the reliable but it will certainly remain cool and unsettled and sometimes rather windy for all of us stuck in the UK.

A bit better today, actually seen a few glimpses of sun!!.....tomorrow looks much better

[Mapantz]

I've beaten my record for the wettest month this year with all the showers today, 175mm now.

Expecting it to slowly increase before November.

Nice sunrise this morning.

Cool but dry. Think it may be a case of make the most of it though!

[Sainsbo]

I can actually see the sun for the first time in a long time! Currently 9.5C and not expecting much to change apart from the wind picking up slightly later on.

93.4mm of rain too this month, so still very wet.

8c ..cloudy.. sun gone in..

Not too sure if this is the right palce to pist, but I don't see why not. Over the past year I've been collecting date fromt the Weather Station in my town and put it into a spreadsheet. if anyone's interested, here is what I have so far.

Here is the Weather Station I've gotten the data from - http://swindon.weather.me.uk/

[Nights King]

Weather looks rather grim still for next week or so with plenty of rain and single figure temperatures.

currently 7c

[ARTDEMOLE]

9c..Grey..Southerly breeze at 5mph..barometer still dropping 988mb

[divadee]

Wow is it windy here today. Had some showers but the wind is really fierce. Gusts of over 30mph registered here.

[AWD]

Quite a squall line developing on the leading edge of the rainband currently over west Wales & SW England coast now.

Looks like a wet afternoon & evening to come across the region, with some very gusty winds.

[Sainsbo]

Currently 10.9C and getting windier with gusts up to 27mph. Pressure dropping off at about 1.2mb/h currently at 983. Looks set to get wetter and windier throughout the day.

This post from the SE and EA thread might be useful for those tracking this latest front and thereafter.

Squall line is now 25miles to the west. Unfortunately it appears to be sadly lacking decent rainfall until it gets over the UK, so for us getting the input direct from the channel, it's not looking much more than some medium rainfall

[AWD]

Got absolutely soaked taking the little one trick or treating earlier.

Hasn't stopped since either. Not much in the way of wind here, but some persistent & very heavy rain currently!

[A.J]

strewth, that was one potent squall!......torrential horizontal rain with a howling wind....not too shabby!
