This was in Sevilla yesterday......we've had nothing here!

I wonder what the holidaymakers there made of this.......watch what happens at 0:20.

Not much rain but in Coventry we've had spectacular high altitude lightning two nights running .

We have a local weather enthusiast who posts daily forecasts and weather summaries on Facebook and is usually pretty accurate. He explained at the start of the week the climatic conditions the UK is under and how this only leads to two things: (1) we know there will be big storms; (2) but until they happen so many factors will influence WHERE they hit it's impossible to predict the location. But he did say it would be a jolly big bang wherever they land. Hence why we have such a wide ranging (pretty much UK wide) yellow warning, which has just been extended to Monday.

All week he's been posting up videos of the high level cloud formations to show what is happening in the atmosphere to influence below, and why this will lead to the massive thunderstorms.

For the avoidance of doubt, normally when he's confident on a forecast, even a few days out, he says it and 99% of the time it's accurate. But on this one it was a "you may see nothing, whereas just a few miles away sees localised flooding, but I can't tell you where those places will be"

I just need to play attention to my joints to know it's coming.

Yeah, only gets better with plenty of cod liver oil capsules and smoe devil's claw

Not to mention Iberian holidays, but NHS doesn't pay for those.

Well if you will ride in a fetal position when you could be cruisin on a Harley ......

[husoi]

The best of being over 55, other then extremely wise, is that you can be a dirty old man and people find it cute

I was going to come out with a joke about being learner legal but it was impossible to make it appropriate

If my bones get much stiffer I’ll have to get a learner legal 125cc for the lightness of them.

Get to 66......then you're really in the zone!

But I don't let it stop me doing anything.......the only things that clip my wings are work and extreme heat.

Both contributed to put the kybosh on last weekend's trip to this bizarre location!

 

 

But this weekend it could be a goer! Got to be.......I may not make it to the weekend after next.

It's an unfortunate consequence of inferior English DNA [mention]Swagman[/mention].

Never mind......I'm sure you're still a mover and a shaker in the Old Folks Home!
