The official winter rain, wind, snow and ice thread 2023/24
Discussion
Saturday evening in Shropshire, around 8.45/9pm we had 10 minutes of almighty rain and wind. Anyone else in the area experience it?
About 10 minutes of violent wind and rain and then just stopped immediately. My garden furniture had been blown all over the Patio! If a Tornado had gone through the garden I wouldn't have been shocked
ETA: Currently pissing it down again and has been constantly since 9pm last night

Decent storm passed over last night around 10pm in Yorkshire. Some large puddles on the roads this morning and the ponds in the farmers fields topped back up after some decent evaporation with all that wind we had.
Never ending.
I've got some brakes I've been refurbing on the kitchen table. They've been there a good month waiting for a dry few hours to get outside to paint them.

Can someone explain what I’m looking at here because my brain can’t work it out. See?
I made the school boy error today of trusting the forecast….
I had to make a trip into Edinburgh, and I always use my motorbike if the weather is half decent as the traffic is generally appalling. The band of rain wasn’t forecast to hit East Lothian until after lunch so I went for for, only to get soaked on the way home. I normally check the last six hours (actual) radar as it generally gives you a better idea of what is coming rather than the actual forecast, which is odd! Like many people, I am absolutely sick of this rain, and it’s cold!
