WHATS YOUR WEATHER LIKE 2020

We had rain and high winds here in Hereford overnight.

The river reached a high of 6.18m at 8am this morning. It seems to be plateau-ing, but many homes in Hereford are flooded, and both road bridges across the river (which goes through the town) are closed.

But the good news is that the rain has stopped for now, and the sun is trying to break through.
(Temp is 6c, and wind speeds 15-20mph, but that seems immaterial at the moment!)

 

Pleased all is safe there.

 

Still dry here but getting greyer by the minute, rain is definitely on it's way. Still soggy and the 'stream ' is still running down our lane. It will probably run for quite a while now as we get the 'run off' from the surrounding hills.

Glad that everyone is safe, that's the main priority.:bigthumb:

 

Sunny well we need some

 

Sunny intervals with occasional drizzle temp 9c feels like 6c. When the breeze dies down and the sun is out it's a pleasant day.

 

Showery and sunny but the wind has gone at last,
Stay safe all of you,
Jenny

 

Our local river, not as bad as some places, but around 15 ft higher than it should be.







These are the steps down to the riverside walk.


Several shops today were closed due to flooding in the old part of town.

 

Showers and windy all day with the sun breaking through now and again. 4C/39F

 

Well we ended up with really dark clouds this afternoon, so decided not to hang out the laundry. But then somehow they parted as they went over our house and the sky cleared!!
So out when the laundry and I carried on with some housework , unbeknown to me while I was so enjoying myself in this lovely task ( not!!) the heavens opened and my double spun laundry was ringing wet!!!

Not happy!

 

Good morning all clear sky and moderate breeze temp 4c to 6c
Precipitation 9%
Sunrise 7.04
Sunset 17.39

I used to live in Worcester city and I've heard that it's really bad there. The area called powick can't get to and the only way to get to Malvern is on the motorway.

@Upsydaisy this time of year i never take a chance and hang the washing outside. I've got a clothes line in the garage and open the back door and the garage door to have a air flow.

 

Cloudy and dry here, and a steady 6c.

However, I’ve just seen the weather radar, and there’s heavy rain in Snowdonia - the Wye will respond here in around 10 hours....

 

Hi @Logan , you can't even get across into St John's.
We've always said that instead of all the faffing about opening up a new Worcester Parkway station ( once again stuck out in the middle of the countryside like the hospital ) they should open a Worcester West station ( the lines already there, using the existing viaduct and high level bridge ) , then at least there'd be a way of getting into the city.
