  1. Must admit the bbc weather was interesting, showed more snow for parts of the south on Saturday as well, I think if this week passes & I haven't even seen snow falling I'm going to be a little bit gutted if I'm honest.
  2. One can dream, I think Dec 1981 had multiple snowfalls leaving over a foot of level snow at sea level here in North Somerset, was 9 years old back then & if it happens again I hope I'm still young enough to enjoy it lol.
  3. Stuff dreams are made of for this area! One day a chart like that will come off.
  4. Even here in North Somerset we had daytime temps of around - 2 for a couple of days during that bfte so someone has a very short memory of how cold that event actually was for the time of year.
  5. If we can't have cold weather enough for snow then I hope it becomes very mild as feb goes on, might mean I get to see my hedgehog visitors back in the garden again soon.
  6. Oh I dunno, things like accusing others of straw clutching just for posting gfs charts in a thread which is meant for such activity, stuff like that! I just find it fascinating watching how it all unfolds, which ever way it ends up playing out.
  7. If it ends up being despair then I can see my ignore list growing significantly with all the pathetic one-upmanship & I told you so posts that will flood this thread! Quite fascinating seeing how this all plays out, normally we'd see the gfs backtrack to the euros a little with each new run but it's not dropping the cold easterly, it's like a dog with a bone.
  8. Hoping for some breaks in the clouds tonight to see the comet, using an astronomy app on my phone shows it's currently above the house at the moment but sodding cloud is obscuring the view.
  9. Well I know one thing, it'll be funny as hell if gfs turned out to be correct, considering how some posters keep bad mouthing it since the 'update'! Other models crud for cold but are dry down here with hp close to the south & at this time of year I'd take that as well to be honest, fascinating to see it play out either way & with the huge differences at such short range at least we won't have long to wait to see who's correct.
  10. I believe the brutal Jan '87 event was brought about by an Arctic high pressure.
  11. Looking forward to some milder temps, gawd never thought I'd say that but damn what a wind up this cold spell has been imby, snow all around us at some point & nothing here. Oh well on to the next chase lol
  12. So that's snow to the north, east, west & south of here over the past few days & nothing here, gutted but that's the issue with showers & small disturbances popping up like we've had, just pure luck like those sitting under that pivoting precipitation that kept going all through today!
  13. Absolute bust here overnight with that band of precipitation, it literally weakened & became patchy as it passed overhead & then reinvigorated as it moved past to the east.
  14. Gets a big fat bust from me, boohoo lol. Much prefer the other chart you posted a while back with the South West in the sweet spot. But I expect this will be how it'll play out.
  15. Well fergie on points West weather yesterday evening talked about showers heading up the Bristol channel so I'm assuming at some point today the wind will push the showers more east instead of south east as the day goes on.
  16. So annoying to see all these showers passing to the south west of my location, good for those seeing snow though.
  17. Jackpot for my backyard which means chances of verifying, I'd rather not know & keep on dreaming instead!
  18. After the nightmare I'd rather forget that was the heavy snowfall that was forecast to hit the south just 12 hours earlier the night before that ended up pummelling the channel Islands instead I doubt we'll be sure of the track of this system until very close to the actual event, if it even impacts the UK at all.l. Fascinating seeing how it all unfolds either way.
