im of to the beach.

 

ill keep an eye out swimming policemen.

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.

Winter storms are shit. They add nothing. Summer storms are ace. Relieve the pressure and freshen things up. Plus the atmospherics with the cloud formations can be awesone

Hurricane Harvey has shed 21 trillion gallons of rainfall.

 

That's 31 million Olympic sized swimming pools.

 

Fookin ell.

In the Basque Country at the minute and have escaped the rain and winds the rest of the peninsula has had until this afternoon. I have seen rain as heavy but not for so long. Bloody hell.

lovely evening out

Yeah because until you compared it to 31 million swimming pools I couldn't comprehend how much water that was

There are around 10.8 m swimming pools in the USA, so enough to fill them all 3 times over. Mind, not all will be olympic sized.

Can you round it down to a small ocean or large lake?

Yeah, it seems I spoke too soon.

Wife's just driven through a deluge over Belmont way.

Even carol Kirkwood is mentioning Lancashire's weather!

It's bright out to sea and the wind is due to switch to west from south in an hour or so. That will clear this shite eventually as it's at snails pace. Only day I actually want wind.

Biblical rain here right now.

Turned up at my mum's; got the mower out and it started pissing down. Grrrrrrrr

Do you listen to the shipping forecast or something?

Haha it's all about working what the wind is up to and what's out to sea and how the different variants effect our battle plan.

 

Worked a treat to today. Rain was predicted all day according to BBC. But standing on the coast you could see bright spells appearing north and west. The wind was predicted to change to west therefore bringing the bright spell with it. Which it did.

 

The forecasters can predict weather fronts in land all day long, and their wind speed is always spot on.

 

But what they struggle with most is what exactly is forming out to sea and what're going to happen when is hits dry land. That's why it's such a challenge to work it all out on days like today.

 

It never rains all day.

I don't take any notice whatsoever

 

I went out in jeans and a coat the other week, got to the boozer and all the lads had shorts and t shirt on

 

I was fucking boiling all day, horrible

Cracking T storm in Gay Paris

It's coming

Nah,we've got our Indian summer to come yet.

Like a winters day today.

It's coming

Seems like a genuine, early autumn day. Few leaves dropping and the greens are fading to straw colours.

l love days like this

Yeah, enjoy it when its breezy and the leaves are rattling, but its not cold enough to freeze your extremities.

 

Recently acquired three pups, just looking forward to when they're old enough to come along.

24 in Paris; perfect

What are you quaffing to compliment the day?
