What do the colours represent?
Rainfall intensity. The sharp borders are from discontinuities in the colour scale.
Probably rainfall, just light rain where I am currently but expect to be under the heaviest part in around 2-3 hours. If I am reading the met office chart correctly up to 16mm/hour of rain. Probably nothing to be overly concerned with unless you are outside at the time.
Density of precipitation methinks, red yellow green blue from high to low
Edit: actually that makes no sense. Maybe it’s height of rain cover with the above colours, and the black spots indicate density?
Shit, I actually don’t know.
Looks fearsome though
Edit2: Best I can find, but it’s not that parseable
Looks like a standard precipitation map to me. Goes purple->red->yellow–>green->blue
what are the dark spots though
Each colour has a scale too, dark green is heavier than light green
Oh yeah, I see darker spots in the yellow. Good spot, cheers
Big nothing for us! Slightly relieved the windows didn’t get blown out in the turret.
Where the hell is this snow? Not a drop here in the north west!
I know… I feel like a bad hype man. We got a lot rain yesterday, but not a flake of snow today.
We’ve had a very light drizzle and no wind what so ever.
We’ve been absolutetly blue-balled by the media telling us “YOU’RE ALL GOING TO DIE IN 20KM OF SNOW AND STORMS”
South coast here. It’s rarely the right conditions for snow, but we got a lot of rain then a lot of wind. I can imagine if the south was colder it could have been a lot of snow.
blue balled indeed!
