11/12/2023 FAULT: We are aware of a fault that has developed with the wind sensor not reading any wind speeds. However it is recording direction. This fault is planned for rectifcation on Thursday as the mast needs to come down for inspection. We appologise for any inconvinience and this will be sorted as soon as its safe to do so. High windspeeds dont allow for safe access to lower the mast for inspection. For the time being, We are using wind speed data from the Liverpool John Lennon Airport EGGP Metar. which is updated twice a hour.


  • No weather warnings have been issued for the Wirral area at this time.

Facts and figures about the weather



  • Fact 15 - Why does one's nose run in the winter?
    When cold air is inhaled, the blood veins or capillaries in the nose constrict. After a short period of constriction the capillaries dilate or expand again naturally. This process encourages the release of mucous from adjacent glands and we end up with a runny nose
