Any chance of this reaching the East Coast tonight. Even hail would be nice to see!

Unlikely, most of the pep in the showers will die out overland, and prevailing conditions more light rain than anything white.

According to RTE weather woman there's a yellow warning likely to be upgraded to an orange warning by tommorow.

I will be glad when December comes - I don't know which thread to peruse because of the whole "it's Winter, no it's Autumn" debate

Newport is getting close to beat its previous wettest November on record in 2009 with 273.8mm right now and plenty more rainfall to come for the last few days!

National mean rainfall totals, based in the IMT 11 station mean, for period Nov 1 to Nov 27 for each year since 2007:



Nationally, still a little behind on last year (although some individual stations have recorded much higher) but with more rain forecast for last few days of November, it could well exceed last year's totals, which if was too happen would make this Nov the wettest since 2009, which holds a record that is unlikely to be broken for a long long time.

Data is from www.met.ie

Of how much rain was recorded, I was in love with November 2009

Anyone got any rainfall radar charts for today (30th)? Was over in Manchester in diabolical conditions and would like to see what 'colour' rain I was walking in all day. Thanks!

Some final stats for Autumn based on the 11 station IMT national mean (stats from individual stations will no doubt differ)

Mean Temperature: 10.9c, which the coolest Autumn value since 2012 (but still slightly above average)
Mean Rainfall Total: 297.9 mm which is 94.8% of 1981-2010 normal
Mean Windspeed: 9.1 knots which is the highest since 2011
Mean SLP: 1014.9 hPa, highest since 2007.

Data is from Met Eireann & Ogimet.

Leave this thread for general discussion on Autumn just gone, statistics, etc.

November stats from the UK.

Dullest on record.
Above average warmth everywhere. 3rd warmest.
2nd wettest in Scotland, 4th wettest in NI.

Oh.. everyday that goes by since I became interested in weather, I remember the weather of each of those days. I could tell the summary of any month for my area without looking at the statistics and actual summaries that I wrote for the months.

Are you saying they were duller than this Nov, or just duller than normal. Most of those months (except Jan 2013 which I remember as being ****e) are summer or Spring months.

It's the dullness that annoys me btw. Don't mind a storm.
