Patricia Arline Murphy commented on Harry Hayfield's blog post Britain's forgotten Spring : CONFIRMED"Harry, I fully understand. We've had a more or less non-existent spring here, too. Very wet and cool. Record flooding. It's been a nightmare and this is supposed to be my favorite season. Well, this one sure wasn't. I'm hoping…"

The average temperature over the period came in at 6.0C, which is 1.8C, or nearly 25 per cent, lower than is typical for the time of year, according to the Met Office. This makes it the fifth coldest spring since records began in 1910 and the chilliest for 51 years. A Met Office spokesman said: "The colder than average conditions have been caused by difference patterns at certain times, but generally this season has seen frequent easterly and northerly winds which have brought cold air to the…See More
Harry Hayfield posted a blog postHurricane Seaso 2013 Preview : Part One
In a little over a week's time, the 2013 Atlantic hurricane season will start and following the forecast from NOAA that this season will be more active than past seasons it raises the prospect of not just American impacts but British impacts as well. This is because, thanks to how hurricanes move, once they have finished with the United States they almost always take a right hander and barrel across the Atlantic giving us a terrible time about 72 hours after landfall in the United States.…See More
Harry Hayfield posted a blog postBritain just cannot seem to get a break
First we have the coldest March for over 50 years, then it is reported that for 33 days (straight) the temperature across Europe was below the average for that time of year and then just as things look as they are improving (London reaching a high of 68 today), guess what? It all goes wrong again!First it's a sandstorm in the Scottish Highlands then a forecast of temperatures dropping as a cold front crosses the country and…See More

The cold is on it's last legs here in the United Kingdom as some parts of the country will today hit the dizzy heights of 10C (50F) (still well below the average of April of 12C (54F)) but as things start to warm up people are taking a chance to say "thank you" to everyone who helped during the worst of itCivil defence volunteers who gave 400 hours to help Isle of Man residents during the recent snow storms, have been praised by the government.

And it's not just Swansea that's dealing with that problem eitherFirefighters in Cumbria have dealt with a spate of grass fires, despite some parts of the county still being under several feet of snow. In the past week at least 20 grass and gorse fires have been tackled, with some being blamed on arsonists. Fire chiefs say an extended dry spell has left vegetation around Cleator Moor, Maryport, and Whitehaven excessively dry and easy to set alight. Yet hundreds of sheep have died in 20ft (6…See More
Patricia Arline Murphy commented on Harry Hayfield's blog post Britain's Forgotten Spring : Day Thirteen"Oh my stars....can anything more happen over there? This is not right! You for sure need some normal stuff going on for a change. No blizzards, no wild wires...just some regular circumstances and weather. Holy cow!"
Patricia Arline Murphy commented on Harry Hayfield's blog post Britain's Forgotten Spring : Day Twelve"Please lord let it be rain and not snow...and finally warmer temperatures. You've all gone way past what should have been long gone winter weather. Hurts to hear about all the dead animals."
Patricia Arline Murphy commented on Harry Hayfield's blog post Britain's Forgotten Spring : Day Eleven"Harry, I find the situation with the animals heartbreaking. And these days nobody can afford all that extra cost that this weather is making necessary. Just a miserable mess. Is it ever going to end?"
