    Thats because the forecast has changed quite dramatically - these Tstorms are now being pushed back until early eve now (if at all) and with what was originally on offer it will be a disappointment - carol K and 'Humdingers' lol

    Yep its gunna be a big fat forecasting bust ! eggs face etc etc. There will of of course be a maddenesque escape clause due to one torrential downpour occuring somewhere in the UK :-)

    Its a big downgrade from yesterday - any thunderstorms progged well after 5 I would think and can see that becoming very localised. Oh well its a familiar tale !

    Here in Southampton it's pretty gloomy and radar doesn't offer much hope of any sun in the near term . East of here is where any action will be I think

    A positive temp anomaly chart is not particularly interesting though is it and not what I suspect the majortity want to see in winter ! Those charts are jff with good reason but at least they offer some albeit remote hope for coldies

    Who'll be monitoring the OPI on a daily basis from next Oct then ? Think I may give a it a miss this year - shame as seemed to promise so much when all the hype started back then !

    Oh to have a forecast like this to look forward to - Massachusetts http://www.google.org/publicalerts/alert?aid=9045d61187d14480&hl=en&gl=UK&source=web

    Next couple of weeks then...

    Odd as thought this was more of a SE event but appears to be more central southern and SW now

    Looking at the meteox 3hr forecast that band of snow looks to me heading on a ssw direction so looks ok for surrey, hants if it keeps intact
  11. cobbett
    Aha another farnhamite ! Well fingers crossed then - a Thames streamer is the best hope for here
  12. cobbett
    Yes could be worse I suppose - I'm too far west to benefit but can but hope
  13. cobbett
    Disruptive in metoffice speak can be as little as 1 to 2cm of snow so probably best not to get the hopes up !
  14. cobbett
    Fair enough but they might as well just issue a general 'be aware' ice warning for the whole of the uk covering the next 7 days - its winter and it gets cold at night so nothing that exceptional !
  15. cobbett
    These metoffice warnings are a bit of a joke really - I mean 1-2cms for our region - does this really warrant a warning. Seems like they issue a warning whenever there is the slightest chance of a snow shower

    GME at least going with an Easterly so a good start to 12z

    ^^ yep take your point CS so here's hoping - just getting a bit negative over this cold spell tbh. Think the best snow prospects for the southern counties is when/if the atlantic tries to get it's act together towards the end of next week - a nice battleground scenario would be perfect !

    Will just be at best sleet and even if we get a few snow showers i can't see it settling

    Beautiful sunny day here in Southampton - just outside and definitely no jacket required..Cold spell..lol
  20. cobbett
    Don't wish to be negative but this cold spell looks to be just a dry but pretty much snowless one for us in the south - post looking at the latest models
  21. cobbett
    Strange - Ian F tweeted that were no snow issues for west country thru to Sunday !
  22. cobbett
    Don't really expect too much excitement in SE apart from some transitory snowfall in the next couple of days, Fergie allluded to the 2nd/ 3rd Feb where there is a possibility of something a little more interesting
  23. cobbett
    Yes its been a long winter model watching ! To think of the excitement I felt when monitoring the OPI index in October - I've been conned !
  24. cobbett
    Give me last winter any day - this winter has so far been the most drab/boring/dull nothingness I've know for a while. Last winter at least had the excitement of some decent storms - will never forget the trips to Chesil Beach to watch some pretty impressive swells barrelling in

    Interesting comment re fetgie on the mod thread and to marvel at the forecast for basically zonal weather for the foreseeable. Would be an interesting experiment to transpose the US weather guys to our shores and vice versa. Methinks the US lot would be bored out of their minds with our weather
