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.

Facts and figures about the weather



  • Fact 17 - How can the distance to a lightning flash be estimated?
    Light from the flash reaches your eyes almost instantly. The sound of thunder travels at only 1,100 feet (335,3 meters) per second. Begin counting seconds from when you see the lightning flash (1001, 1002, 1003, etc.) and stop when thunder is heard. Five seconds is approximately one mile (1.61 kilometres). Thunder is seldom heard over 15 miles (24 kilometres) away.
