my second greenhouse in one year has survived the storms so far....i wrapped gaffer tape round it to stop the panels getting blown out again

 

How bizarre....

It's now as calm and still as you like......

 

the calm before the storm!

Gatwick at 8:20am on the 10th wind from the south 180º 24 Knots gusting 45 knots 3,800m visibility with rain, clouds scattered at 1,200 feet, broken at 2,000 feet, temperature 8 ºC, dew point 6 ºC (saturation point) atmospheric pressure 969 millibars........

Hope that helped!

 

In other words,


its raining heavily


Mart :

 

Yes it sure is!

 

Pressure here has dipped as low as 941mb - that is seriously (ahem) depressing!!!

 

941 mb is really low! Blimey!

 

what you complaining about its lovely down there one of my favorite places in the world to be is fishing off the point at st davids head! fantastic

 

948 now - normally THAT figure would be a cause for concern but at least it is going in the right direction

This is from one of those digital weather station devices... don't know how accurate the pressure measurement is, but 941 is very worrying.

 

At least it is going up!

 

I took a photo earlier....



Love to know if this IS accurate

 

It probably is, and most likely reading QNE and not QNH, so it will read your altitude as 0 feet, if it did such a thing.

If it were QNH it would read sea level as 0 feet and your house the actual altitude, and so on.

So then the value might seem lower than usual i.e. the surface value might be 960 mb, but since you might be on higher ground it would be 948 mb this means roughly speaking that: 960-948= 12 mb x 30 feet (value of 1 mb in feet) = 360 feet above sea level is where you are at.

Make any sense lol?

 

Apparently was quite rainy etc here this morning... but I slept through it

BBC NEWS | UK | UK storm causes 14 flood warnings

 

Pfft, had worse a few weeks back: even the hammock is still standing!

 

Heard on the TV lies show, I mean the news, the severe storm was heading for the UK, how did it go?

Seen some pictures. Reminds me of the tim ein the 80's when Seven Oaks became One Oaks, and I lost all my washing that was hung out on the line.

 

Did the government pay for the lost washing?
