  1. Monday is usually a disappointment, but it's Monday's like these that make me thankful for working from home.
  2. Felt lovely in the sun for a few hours here in NE Essex. Now cloudy as instability increases. If you want great winters, move north. If you want hot summer days and thunderstorms, move South. Did someone actually say "Climate Change agenda"? Blimey, I'm looking forward to hearing the case against Climate Change rather than the one that's supported by over 99% of scientists in that field.
  3. The cold seas at this time of the year can suck the life out of storms. Heavy showers for all but the luckiest overnight.
  4. Dxnielwashere Yes, the intensity of the shower has eased in the latest image but still with a small hook. There was a warning of small-track tornadoes in that area so it all makes sense.
  5. AI's power is over-rated at the moment, give it another couple of years though and it might just be good enough.
  6. A heads-up for commuters, Network Rail will have to run route-proving trains first thing to make sure the tracks are free from debris so there's likely to be some early trains that don't run even in less-effected areas like the East. If lines are clear then expect a 6:30 to 7am start or have a lie-in and avoid the disruption.
  7. I think there more nuance to it than just "how gusty will it be". You have to remember that as the worst of it is happening in the dark makes it more dangerous for drivers and because it's inevitable that trees will block some railway lines then the disruption element for the morning commute could be significant. Likewise anyone flying into the UK could suffer significant delays if they end up be diverted. Think in terms of the knock-on effect of what's happening out there.
  8. Once the fridge is at room temperature you can put bottles of stuff outside overnight while it's still a bit chilly. Colder than indoors anyway.
  9. Rishi blames the small boats. The rest of us blame Rishi. Only a matter of time before we have Storm Rishi, not sure whether that would be a windstorm or yet another political scandal. Or both.
  10. Bournemouth v Liverpool at 16:30. Could be entertaining down there on the south coast, it's a blowy old ground at the best of times.
  11. Well, you're more likely to avoid being hit by flying objects if you're bobbing about in the sea. Only recommended for very accomplished swimmers though.
  12. This isn't going to be a 1987-type event but from my experience from my railway days, it takes one weak tree to bring whole region's transport infrastructure to a standstill. It's just a bit more likely in the Amber warning area. Likewise with the power grid. So prepare for the worst even if it turns out to be a non-event in your neck of the woods. Conservatory Cam is doable but I think Big Jet TV on You Tube will be more interesting.
  13. I'll be delighted if this storm finishes-off our rotten old conservatory. @The Tall Weatherman You know what to do, start your own channel. There's money to be made from clicks.
