High 14C

Monday 21st October 2019.
A rather complex day with a weather system over the Continent that will give a risk of rain to places to the south east of Kent and East Sussex perhaps extend a little to the west. The north and west of London should stay dry if rather cloudy at times. Overnight Monday may still produce a little rain in the far east but it should move away after midnight. Max of 13C to 14C. It looks drier during the coming week as high pressure will build in from the west and eventually the east and will herald a significant rise of temperature by the end of the week. There is just a 40 per cent chance of a shower on Wednesday as warmer air moves north and this could intiate the conditions for some showers to form.
Issue 1 came out in 1998. See below for the latest front cover of issue 39-The Singing Ringing Tree, a culpture that reacts to the wind.
Weather eye makes a good present - why not send a gift pack to any interested friend or relative for a birthday.
Frosted Earth has now moved to Storrington in Sussex. Weather eye issue 40 I am now working on
I am currently working on Issue 40. It is proceeding rather slowly though as sadly a number of my key contributors have passed away this year. They were the lifeblood of Weather eye and will be sadly missed. I am pressing on getting the pages sorted and hope to have much of it done this coming week.
The Weather station in Coulsdon has shut down after 39 years of recording but Chipstead Valley will continue. A new station has now been set up at Storrington in West Sussex. Phone number is now 01903 741478.

Ian's eye on the Weather. A daily chat for Aug 10th 2019.
I recorded a wind gust of 60 mph early evening on Saturday 10th August at Rottingdean, just east of Brighton. Huge seas were pounding the walls of the Brighton Marina.

The first issue of Weather eye in 1998.

Listen out for me on Sunday 26th October 2019 on BBC Radio Surrey and Sussex, just after 0945 hrs on the 'Dig It' show giving a look back on October's weather and a forecast ahead for the whole of November.
Have you tried Weather eye magazine. Give it a go. I will send you the latest issue post free and at a reduced price of £2.50- that's got to be a bargain.
The Singing Ringing Tree, Burnley Lancashire. This is the front cover of Weather eye issue 39.
On This Day- October 21st 1638
A stormy day over the South-west with thunderstorms in many places. One thunderstorm developed a tornado which swept through Widecombe-in-the-Moor on Dartmoor. The church stood in the path and there was a full congregation. A storm battered the church with large hail and it received a direct hit from lightning. A tornado then hit and the tower was demolished showering huge blocks of stone onto the church goers.

Ian Currie in Print
| Ian has written or co-authored many different books, the majority of which revolve around the subject we all know and cherish - the weather.

Unlike complex scientific journals, Weathereye is accessible to everyone for a small subscription fee.
