cracking flags mon.....

 

if this is global warming,will do for me....

 

im of to the beach.

 

ill keep an eye out swimming policemen.

Last 2/3 days had a blinding headache

 

Soon as the storm hit Manc today it cleared

 

Seem to get it every time storms are building up

I'm same pal. Air pressure busting your ears.

 

Apparently next week a hurricane in America is going to drift over the Atlantic and push the jet stream up, allowing some good stuff to hit us from the south.

Thought you'd be keeping in touch via that website

To be honest, never saw a forecast suggesting it might happen. It did piss it down where I was though.

 

Hoping for an Indian summer now though.

 

Is it me or has it been the windiest year ever?

Cant believe it was 22 years ago for the hottest away game this day at Selhurst Park.

You, I think

All down hill from now, been another shite summer, roll on the falling leaves.

You, I think

Maybe, just never had to cut up fallen trees of paths in summer before, and there are already plenty of leaves on the ground. Given the presence of ash dieback all over the town, in a few years there maybe trees blowing down all over the place.

Thank fuck for that. Thought I had a made up illness like hay fever or SAD

 

Not that I'm happy that you get it............

Some of the footage from Texas is mental. Proper apocalypse tackle.

 

On a brighter note it's spazzed up our jet stream and we are set for an Indian summer heatwave.

It's really bad over there

 

One of the lads that works for us has had his house flooded up to the first floor

 

God knows what state our office is in as it's ground floor

Autumn is better than summer, love it!

It may be American speak but in USA they don't have a ground floor, they start at the first floor.

Fifty inches of rain. Unfathomable.

There's a picture of a shark swimming about doing the rounds.

 

Can't be real haha

Fifty inches of rain. Unfathomable.

 A fathom is 72 inches.

That explains Fathom Night at Uncle Brian's then.

A fathom is 72 inches.

Not sure why but this post just made me giggle like a lunatic

Cheers Malc

A fathom is 72 inches.

I nearly added that another 22 inches and it would become fathomable. Glad one of the oldies got there.

Bit of a drizzle in india as well

Major thunder storm covering large part of Belgium at the moment. Think we're doing quite well all things considered.

Shove em up your arse

Ha ha yeah I get it from your point. You don't want to be up a ladder in a storm

 

I get it from my mum. She was born in what used to be known as "lightning alley" - the area going north out of Leeds up towards Scarborough- the flatlands where the A1(M) is. Storms tracking west across the Pennines would veer north and then head out to sea over Scarborough. At 80 years old if she hears a storm she'll go upstairs and sit in a bedroom to watch it from the edge of Winter Hill

Blimey mate, that's quite poetic!

Haha I'm with you all the way mate. Complete weather geek.

 

To be fair it's very rare we are stopped completely, even in the worst of storms. There's always something we can fall back on. Bit of a challenge is good.

 

2 years ago took the piss though. 13 consecutive storm fronts throughout the winter fucked us right up.

Hurricane Harvey has shed 21 trillion gallons of rainfall.

 

That's 31 million Olympic sized swimming pools.

 

Fookin ell.
