There's always trees down, lorries overturned etc in storms every winter, you have heard more about this 1 because there was more media coverage from it being a red warning so you hear of everything newsworthy
Imagine how many more there would have been without the warnings ?

It's not about getting -20 uppers in (though obviously that would be nice), it's about getting a synoptic set up where we can feed plentiful moisture into a non-marginal set up to promote widespread UK snowfall.
We can do this a few ways-
Cold (sub -10) uppers with low thicknesses across a (relatively) warm N sea, which would promote banding showing activity
Cyclonic cold E'ly with organised snow pushing NW out of the continent- See Feb 2009
Undercutter scenario with cold, dry E/SE airmass undercutting a negative/neutrally tilted LP approaching from the W/SW
The trend has been clear away from any of those scenarios- a briefer initial E'ly with increasing heights/thicknesses very soon after. Snow fall possible but erring away from anything widespread or sustained.
It depends what people want. I'd personally want to go all in at this time of year, rather than trying to make a decent meal from crumbs.
you can't do any of these. You have zero control over them.

It's got as far as the beacons - hasn't got to the heads of the valleys as yet - it might fizzle out before it manages to do anything in the south but we shall see
not a drop of snow in Llandrindod Wells about 30 miles north of the beacons yet.

Until its hits mountains weakens quickly.
happened loads here in Llandrindod Wells. Either just go south or not enough oomph to get here. We did have an inch or so of snow Monday night i think which is still here though.

Historic event - last time I saw alot of snow was 2010, this beat that hours ago. 4ft drifts now and to think we've got more snow coming.
i think you maybe making the old mistake of measuring drifting snow with lying snow. epic of course but

wild here now (llandrindod wells).
great stuff and it'll be talked about for a long time like 2010 and 1982.
not as much snow here as in december but far wilder, colder and driftier
