Remaining Cold and mainly Dry.....

A few Glitches tonight ,so unable unfortunately to bring you youre "week ahead video forecast" but the week ahead looks predominantly dry, rather cloudy and increasingly cold from mid week onwards where there may be a few Wintry Flurries! I will update the forecast but the general theme is for quiet conditions this week.

Later this week we will also be featuring on the "Top Of the World" an explanation of the severe flooding around parts of the world such as Australia and why this is happening in a short video Documentary so please dont miss that!! Thats all from me tonight, I will be back shortly but untill then take care...See Ya Ian.

The Next Month...Februarys Thoughts....

After one of the coldest Decembers since 1890 and a very"benign" January what can we expect for the last month of Winter???It looks as though this month again will see us turn into the depths of Winter despite the lengthening days!! Ice, Frost And Snow will again be part of the menu, although we probably will  not repeat the Decembers extremes!! Some milder days are possible but still below the average temperatures of 7c/45 but on the whole a lot of cold/very cold conditions. Winds will be mainly from the North or East hence the cold, but it wont top some Atlantic influence trying to bring some milder conditions in, resulting in a "Battleground situation" so a chance of heavy snow/perhaps turning to rain....resulting in possible flooding. Overall ,expect some "severe" weather at times this month. You Have Been Warned!!

Cold,Dry and Mainly Cloudy........

This picture here may be misleading as this weekend apart from tonights mist and frost will see a lot of  cloud, dreary but mainly dry Winter weather. Tonight,will see a frost first thing with temperatures especially around the Welsh Marches ,Hay On Wye for instance, will see temperatures down to minus 5c/24f with patchy mist and fog just about anywhere, but cloud will move in from the NorthEast later in the night and lift temperatures but any high ground will become misty and perhaps damp.Saturday/Sunday alike will then see a lot of cloud with some hill and mountain drizzle ,but low ground mainly dry,and temperatures around 4c/39f at best,during the day and no lower than 1c/34f around the nighttime period so most if not all places will escape a frost, very similar into next week, but more about that on our Video forecast on Sunday Evening! Untill then have a great weekend.....See Ya Ian.

Dreary...!

The "mid winter blues" is really a symptom the weather has caught over this Winter and this weekend although mild will see little if any brightness with more rain and wind! Tonight will see some clearer conditions with temperatures down to 7c/45f but after midnight the wind  will increase and rain will set in and all of us wil have a dreary, dark start to Saturday, rain and wind will be knocking on your windows and that sets the scene for the day with winds in exposed locations gusting in excess of 30mph from the South West, but that rain will ease off in the afternoon , with windy ,dry conditions to follow over the Evening period, a mild cloudy windy night into Sunday morning with cloud and murky conditions ,and rain will become more widespread during the Afternoon with some heavy bursts...See I told you it would be Dreary!! I will be back with our video/week ahead forecast later on Sunday and perhaps some better news!! See Ya Ian...

Weather Watch....Heavy Rain and Flooding.

After some heavy rain of the last few days especially in the West of our region over the Cambrian Mountains in Wales there is a risk of some Flooding Issues. The River Wye is now on Flood Alert, meaning that there is potential for some flooding in the next 24/36hrs. There are other numerous alerts in Wales and this problem may spread to parts of England  overnight as heavy overnight rain is likely for many . Tomorrow looks better ,once the overnight rain clears but still some showery rain over the Mountains Of Wales. Friday will see more rain but perhaps  the,Welsh Mountains may escape the worst! Further updates will appear here and you can check out this link anytime as its updated every 15 minutes.

Weather RoundUp for December 2010.

December was one of the coldest since 1890! Here at worcestershireweather.com based in Evesham we recorded 14 ice days [thats when the temperature never got above freezing] The voews [Vale Of Evesham Weather Station]recorded minus 16.3c/3f on the 19th with an exceptionally cold maximum temperature that day of only minus 7.3c/19f. Locally at Pershore the temperature plummeted down to minus 19c/-2f on the 19th! Then there was another Bitterly cold spell over the Xmas period with a very festive scene. Xmas night and Boxing day night saw temperatures plummet down to minus 14.3c/6f , locally colder and Christmas Day itself was bitter with temperatures not getting above minus 6c/21f! Heavy snow fell across a wide area on the 18th but places like Ross on Wye, Malvern and Hereford saw little if any snow that day! Fourteen days of lying snow again locally more! The average daytime temp for this area is 7.7c46f ....recorded 1.6c/35f....Night Time temp Average 2.2c/36f..Recorded Minus 3.6c! The thaw came shortly after Boxing Day ,a "slow" thaw initially but the maximum temperature recorded was surprisingly at the end of the month on the 30th with a tropical  10.2c/50f but river levels remained within the confines of there banks in most cases, so thank goodness no flooding problems! Precipitation, mainly in the form of ice and snow came just about average with 63.8mms although there was a strong deviation across the area. So, A very Memorable Month!
This Guy here, I have a lot of Respect for and he called this Winter the coldest for around 100 years and BINGO, hes right! His name is Piers Corbyn of" Weather Action "and he is an "Astrophysicist" but quite simply his Long range forecasts are astonishingly accurate. His views on Climate Change are a breath of fresh air, anyway take a look at this link with regards to this Winter and much more on You Tube.

WeekEnd Forecast....Not Bad...!!

Evening Folks, and we are already at the end of the first week of the new year! It has to be said thankfully the snow this morning was not to widespread, and here at ww.coms headquarters we got none, but upland areas saw some as well as the good Folks in Mid Wales. The weekend is going to be typical for the time of year but with a lot of dry and bright weather especially on Sunday. Tonight will see mild cloudy conditions with lows of 7c/45f  with some showery outbreaks of rain at times and some more persistent heavy rain will move in at the second half of the night so first thing Saturday morning will likely start off ,dismall and wet with some patchy rain. By the middle of the day this should start to clear and the wind freshen from the West and even though temperatures mild in the morning at about 8c/46f these temperatures will fall in the afternoon/Evening with some clearer spells developing overnight into Sunday morning with a patchy frost developing by around 8am. Then a dry breezy chilly day with some sunshine and highs of 4c/39f. Enjoy your weekend , I will be back with our week ahead video forecast on Sunday Evening.....See Ya Ian.
