Parts of London, the southeast of England and Wales have been hit by a large-scale power cut, meaning some traffic lights are not working, according to Transport for London (TfL). "Please be very cautious on the roads!" TfL said on Twitter. The problem is reportedly caused by a National Grid failure. "We're aware of a power cut affecting large parts of London and South East. We believe this is due to a failure on National Grid's network, which is affecting our customers," UK Power Networks said in a tweet. "We are currently experiencing a major incident on the national electricity infrastructure. ... ... ... [/quote] :-)... (Just wanted to note/add) This also spread out a little to the Northeast of England as my power was out/down for a short while... they say it's due to problems created from the "bad" weather and storms... we've had some horrendous weather recently...damages to our trees, roads, houses etc... Lots of interesting activity going on lately... Do take care, all... stay safe. :hf: [/quote] Same here Blue! Good to see you and hope all is well! [/quote] Hi BigD! :-)...

In 2017 we saw the most costly damage from weather the United States has ever seen. In the first weeks of 2018 we have seen blizzards and snow from Florida to Maine, 40 degree temperature swings and deadly flooding in California. The crazy, unpredictable weather is being felt and observed by Glp'ers from all over the world.
The goal of this thread is simply to observe, compare and contrast forecasts - to what really ends up happening. Meteorologists are wrong - ALOT. It would seem the weather has been getting harder to predict, and the storms are becoming intense. Here maybe we can piece together the puzzling weather of late. I've been wanting to create this thread for a while, because it baffles me how inaccurate forecasts have been in the past, and even more so as of recently! Here we can have a template of what was predicted, what really happened and maybe it'll help shed light on what we can expect in the future!
Feel free to post anything weather related. From links, to videos to your daily weather forecast and/or observations. The more data the better. I will give daily forecasts for a few cities including my current location. This should be interesting and fun. I'll try my hardest to update here on the regular. But i sure could use some help from you fine GLP weathertards.
