I'm keeping a very close eye on developments with regard to tomorrow's
storm. As I said in another thread, it seems to be on a knife-edge for this part of the world: the latest TAF from Birmingham Airport mentions only snow from 6pm onwards, whereas the furthest the East Midlands forecasters will allow themselves to go is a PROB30 of sleet, and Luton simply has rain throughout. In all honesty, this is one of those times when it becomes clear to the rest of us just how hard forecasting can be. Look at Bewdley today: the temperature reached 6°C, way above the MetO regional forecast of 2°C, yet by dusk we had 0.6°C and settling snow, something which last night I'd really thought unlikely. And Birmingham is only at 99m asl, barely any higher than I am here, so they obviously don't think substantial altitude will be needed for snow tomorrow. So, flooding, gales or blizzards to cause the most problems around here? Frankly, I have no idea! This one needs watching, though. -- Bewdley, Worcs. ~90m asl. |
