Watching Helene

Netweather GFS Image



First Update, Watching Helene

Helene is expected so far to strike the UK, as a low pressure system, windstorm. Not a Hurricane, so far looking at the GFS run it seems she could strike next week on around Tuesday, she could be bringing 60-70MPH to Western areas in particularly, and parts of the South West could see rather strong winds too, as that's where the storm is expected to come up from.

She is expected to track North East through the UK, generally missing Scotland and N.I with the strong winds, but they could be effected with some rather heavy rain in both areas, according to the GFS. So far England and Wales looks mostly unscathed by heavy rain, however that is subject to change depending on Helene's path through the UK and Ireland.

She could be bringing some rather hot weather with her too, it looks like specifically in England where temperatures in the mid twenties look likely right now.

I expect that both Met Éireann and the Met Office would release warnings for this storm, probably along the Eastern areas of Ireland and Western areas of England or Wales. However I'm not qualified to give out warnings, i'm just going off what I see from the GFS. So keep up to date with your local Met Agency.

Saturday Europe Daily Forecast

20/10/18 Saturday Europe Daily Forecast Looks like a drier morning over much of Europe today, although Scotland will be wetter with periods of wet weather over the course of the morning, Eastern Spain will be showery with the occasionally heavy shower here and there. Coastal Andalusia, will see prolonged rain in the morning which could be heavy in parts. Very light rain will effect parts of central Europe like Bavaria, and the Czech Republic and parts of Slovakia, but the rain will not amount to much it seems, heavier rain into the late morning and afternoon should develop across southern parts of Bulgaria, and North, Eastern Greece. Elsewhere should be dry for the morning, early afternoon bar a few parts of Northern Norway, North Germany, Southern parts of Sweden, and isolated South Eastern parts of Denmark.

Spring Forecast

Spring Forecast March I'm expecting an unsettled, chillier than average or average start to March but not particularly cold. But quite quickly I expect high pressure to reestablish over the UK, possibly mid-month. Which for a time could bring quite mild weather for March. I expect it to become quite a bit drier also, maybe very dry, the dry weather could be alleviated in some areas by one off downpours here and there. In my personal opinion, I do think we could see some exceptionally mild weather later in March too. That's just my opinion. April in my view I think things may switch a bit to be on the cooler side, northerly winds could become prominent in this month, I do think there could be some snowfall when we do get northerly winds but whereabouts is obviously unknown at this stage. But personally I think April will be a cooler than average or average month. Rainfall I think it could be a bit drier than average for some parts or on the average side. (Here...
