Model Output Discussion - Into the new year
dhillcrest replied to SMU's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
I've been following this thread since 2010 when I got sucked into the euphoria of that year's cold snap - I love a bit of snow, me. I wanted to see what the experts said and fed off the enthusiasm in here. It was glorious. Now, I know nothing, NOTHING about the charts (much to my disgust) but every year I come back in December to see what the prospects are..... Is it my imagination, or have I seen charts and enthusiasm simillar to what were seeing now a good couple of times in the last ten tears only to see them collapse to mediocrity within the 120 hour time frame - sometimes even less. Is there something different about these charts this year or is there still a chance everything will evaporate into sludge at short notice? I ask because I ramp all this up to my wife all the time and then when it doesn't happen she blames me personally and calls me an idiot. Mods - this is slightly connected to models so bear with me -

Gave a good burst over Mold and left a cm - enough to turn everything white for now anyway. Hoping the NI stuff makes it over. -

Raining hard in Mold in the Clwydians. Hoping the height will lead to snowier stuff by the morning. No way it’s going to stop the commute to Birkenhead. -
About an inch here in Mold. Nothing too exciting.

Just started snowing here in Mold, NE Wales. At 125m, about 10 miles from the coast. Light, but at least it's here now.
-
Light snow for about 30 mins in NE Wales. Will take about 20 years to get above show level at this rate though
-
Just sort of stopped snowing in Mold now - about 2 inches. Better than expected . At 125m asl

Model Output Discussion 13/11/13 >
dhillcrest replied to chionomaniac's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
I know I've got a post count of 'bugger all' but I've been following the winter threads for a few years and have never seen a chart that looks like that. So why's it so good for cold? Is it because the cold has been drawn from the East for so long? The amount of 'blue' penetrating into the Atlantic? The wind strength? It all looks a bit flat and I thought flat was bad. genuine questions - just a bit ignorant. -
Wales (Cymru) Regional Discussion 11th March 2013

Well, the snow finally stopped at last in Mold. The main roads in and around town are clear but only one lane where the plough has cleared it, the snow piled high everywhere. No-one can walk on the pavements, everyone's walking on the road.I dug our road out yesterday as you can see in the attached pic. My sister wanted to come up from Birkenhead, but I told her she;d have to park in McDonalds, 3/4 mile away so she didn't bother. -
Still snowing in Mold in N E Wales. Up to 47cm now on level ground, well, the garden table anyway. Very wierd and sure I won't see it again in my lifetime.

Mold in NE Wales this morning. My jaw hit the floor. Not quite sure of the depth. We went past a foot at midnight

We're pretty much the same down in Mold, Hywel. I was literally flabbergasted when I looked outside this morning. I've never seen anything like it. It's like I just woke up in Canada. I don't think the market will be on. -

Some pics from Mold, NE Wales. About 25cm lying snow at the moment. A lot of trees down and most roads not worth trying. Had to walk to Tesco's -

13 hours of heavy snow probably did it. -

Are you on the Padeswood side? The intensity has dropped a bit now - are you the same? -

Just measured 17cm lying snow in Mold, NE Wales. Can't get out of my drive. This is at 125m asl. It's at 2010 levels at the moment. All the schools shut.
