snowlight robbery

No point in moaning .. think all of us in the Purbecks have come to expect it over the years anyway!

Many thanks for that! .. that'll do for me! .. Fascinating regularly checking into the model output! .. I'm getting there deciphering my ECM's amongst GEFS's and my FL, undercuts and of course the good ole Scandi high! A code of your own but love it!

Haven't got a clue what they're all talking about, but still fascinating reading the sheer excitement from the amateur forecasters on the model output thread! By the sounds of it the latest charts are throwing up some seriously cold and prolonged wintry weather across all parts towards the end of next week! .. manic in there! .. worth a visit!

Oh well .. better get the Poole, Bournemouth and Purbeck snow shield out then! Guess we'll just see our normal predictable rain as always!

Poole Harbour snow shield now activated and doing what it does best .. turning anything that falls within 5 miles of it's entire perimeter to rain!

Wow! If this area below the Purbecks, Dorset makes landfall here then maybe red warning maybe extended further east?

Wareham golf course! Our playground where all the kids went during the great snow event of 1978! Everyone from Northmoor congregated there! Be good to see a snow event like that again! ?

Same Here! Power cut as well now! No way I'll sleep now .. weather radar chart looking to exciting!

Great! Power cut in the village has just occurred and snow event not here yet! All adding to the excitement!. Weather radar showing heavy precipitation just leaving France heading over channel towards us - Corfe Castle, Dorset!

many thanks,so much to learn and take in.keep going to the model output discussion some of which I understand and some I most definately don't! lol, fascinating though!

has this all gone horribly wrong? or are there any weather tekkies out there that can give us any clues as to where this precipitation is coming from.hunting the radar even along the french coast and not seeing much yet.

all eyes on the latest bbc1 forecast coming up now!

Every time theirs talk of snow this forum is there to work it's magic and draws you in!. This is what makes netweather great, so addictive, Great fun. All eyes on the radar and GFS for the next 24 hrs!

Nowhere near an expert like most on this forum and I am well aware that many charts,influences and sudden changes have to be taken into account, but surely by the look of the latest GFS it will take more than the usual Poole Harbour snow shield to keep that lot out this time!. It shows precipitation from 9pm this eve continuing well into tomorrow!

And from me AWD! I often pop into the mod disc to try & learn and pick bits up so to see your charts and write ups in plain english is real useful,thx!
