Yay hopefully something exciting will happen. Off work for 3 weeks after a knee operation and I'm bored already. Snow would be good.Karshvardidgâh wrote: I think next week looks exciting though.Just a bit further than 72 hours away and needed some input.

Nah, no snow for us...just in the hills, I reckon...you could always go for a drive!
And way OT, (sorry): but I have to ask...what does your name mean? Is it Persian Farsi for something? I google Karshvar and get some mythical references and didgah is Persian for....??? Just curious, is all...

Hey Karsh-

Hi G,no, not at all,but you are right.
In the Avesta, reference is made to seven karshvar (Modern Persian keshvar), climes or zones, organizing the world map into a seven-storied ziggurat representing the cosmic mountain.The seven climes (klima, plural klimata, meaning "inclination", referring to the angle between the axis of the celestial sphere and the horizon) was a notion of dividing the Earth into zones in Classical Antiquity. The lists of klimata found in early geographers vary in their extension, but by convention, they numbered seven, counted from south to north. This number was taken up by Ptolemy who in his Geography divided the northern temperate zone into seven zones (klimata).
didgâh in Persian just means "point of view" which I thought I would use as we report in the forum our point of view.
Thanks for asking.

Re: Depression Sunday 29th July onwards
Spring is off to a wonderful start. I'm hoping it stays fine and warm until December at least. It always turns shithouse around mid-to-late December, but if we're lucky this will be a long, fine and sunny spring until then.

Re: Depression Sunday 29th July onwards
It was nice to see the sun yesterday and at times today , give us a chance to dry up from the average deluge on Sunday night. Some parts are still innundated with water as well as tidal waterways.
Some more of that rain tomorrow night too with a low crossing to lie east of BP at 987hp on Sunday directing perhaps a stronger southerly flow, well stronger than the last few days.
I noticed some weak forms of CU inland yesterday, a reminder of summer and what perhaps is to come for the season one positive angle anyway.
Cheers
Jason.

Re: Depression Sunday 29th July onwards
I'm not still not convinced,there is a lot of warm moist air flowing down,with thunderstorms in the north,we have a southerly change next week and its all a bit dull in the south. I still just think that there might be a sting in the tail for this winter before the end of the month but then again I'm just a sceptic and it would be nice to get some warm sunny or even cloudy days just so I can get back into the garden.Gary Roberts wrote:Spring is off to a wonderful start.
