Oldham Weather

This will send the 1976 brigade into meltdown. Note: the mean temperature includes nighttime temperatures and this year the nights were particularly warm. #WarmestSummerEver

💦 Safe to say we've been one of the wettest places in the UK today.

@uggy7 Ranks 4th wettest May since my records in 2013. 2024, 2015 and 2014 were wetter. Average for May is approx. 61mm. Currently at 59.2mm here. 📊

@ChadWeather Not this one

I think it genuinely rains less in November.

💦 3rd wettest day of the year today after persistent rain during the early hours, downpours today and showers merging this evening.

@Karen_karenelee I don't think you realise that hail is more common in late-Spring and Summer (due to convection and big shower-clouds aided by the sun's heat) than it is in winter.

Apparently the far-Right think that us Lefties are imagining climate change 🤔…& of course it’s perfectly normal to have such cold weather plus hailstones mid-way though May 🥶

WEDNESDAY A mostly cloudy day with a few bright spells. However, there will be occasional showers but nothing like the previous couple of days. Starting to feel a bit warmer and still a steady breeze. Max 17°C Min 11°C Max Gusts 20mph

TUESDAY NIGHT Showers continuing. Some heavy with a chance of hail and thunder. Breezy and mild. Min 10°C Max Gusts 20mph

Bouncing down. 💦

Plenty of downpours out there this afternoon. Chance of hail and thunder.

@uggy7 Yeah but I'd rather be away than at home in 24-27°C. It's minging here.

@ChadWeather We go away on Sunday! Typical

Whether we actually have an official heatwave here next week, all depends on which data model you believe. Some suggest 3 to 4 days of 25°C to 27°C. Others not so hot. Weekly Blog tomorrow. ✅

Lots of puddles back this morning after 37mm of rain over the last 7 days. Mild and moist out there.

Rainfall totals (mm) since midnight. More welcome rain.

@uggy7 Sorry pal was driving at the time. 👍

@ChadWeather What’s it like near me? 6:30 ish. Youngest lad playing football, last two games of the season

TUESDAY Early rain moving on, hopefully in time for the school-run. Briefly drier but then heavy showers coming for the afternoon with a risk of hail and thunder once more. Breezy. Temperatures picking up. Max 17°C Min 10°C Max Gusts 25mph

@SharynM22 @RainorshineManc Wonderful. Wind direction change late on. 💪

MONDAY NIGHT Turning wet overnight with persistent rain. Mild and breezy. Min 10°C Max Gusts 25mph

Some large hail in these showers. Setting off car alarms. 🧊⚡

Inland convection again. Lovely along the coast.
