This morning… -4 Kinbrace / Friday morning… -5.3C at Braemar [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] Sure, there’s been times of chill and frost this month but it’s nothing […]
Within 24 hours, the US landmass will have experienced major snowfall (Rockies/High Plains), severe weather including tornadoes and flash flooding on the Central/Southern Plains as well as a landfalling Tropical Cyclone (Ana) in the Carolinas. As AccuWeather’s Jesse Ferrell points out, this may be a first. Ana is now a fully tropical, 60 mph storm and […]

After a cold start to Friday with temps down to -4, possibly -5 in Highland Scotland, it’s another day of bright or sunny spells mixed with cloud. However, a band of rain will spread across Wales and the central swathe of England from off the Irish Sea today and this will shape the first half of the weekend. Dry to the north […]
