Well as the title suggests this is current weather conditions. The other thread is concerned with the storm itself.In extreme events like this the two threads will clash untill the thread or storm passes and that thread dies off while this remains.
I have no problem with that.
If it comes down to that i will just move posts but everyone is heeding the threads titles imo.

no problem .:D........in extreme events like this , oh dear , still hoping that does'nt happen to me .

Temp is 4.0c here as well, and can confirm some snowflakes in the heavy rain. So don't give up hope.

Snowbie

977.1 and only gusting 20mph

rain and sleet has turned to wet snow here. some of you on higher ground further east should be in for a treat.

Interesting, half wondered if the heavy stuff could lead to evaporative cooling away from the strongest winds.

Spots of rain here now, the fun's beginning.

The tax man

Just out the back having a smoke and there's thick(ish) cloud cover over the Dublin mountains but great chunks of cloud are breaking off and are being ripped apart as they come towards my location. Getting blustery at ground level but it must be howling at cloud level to do that. Usually see it happening slowly but this is in a matter of 10-20 seconds.

Now starting raining here(D.14) too and ground gusts are strengthening.:D:D
