  1. TfL Traffic News â€@TfLTrafficNews 1m 1 minute ago Central London: Regent St j/w Air St- the road is blocked both ways (overhead xmas decorations have collapsed). Use other routes.
  2. Iceni - It will be warm - 70-80 f. for the week. It is just south enough of Georgia for better temps. Sorry - straying off topic - back to the deluge at hand...
  3. My fingers crossed - 12 noon flight from Gatwick to SUNNY Florida Saturday…ahhhhh. Not happy with the expanded Orange blob. I hate the idea of driving through the weather in the am.
  4. It has expanded in size so - rain now - acc. to previous posts…timing of highest winds etc seems about the same...
  5. Hi - well - being an Northeast Coast American, I have grown up figuring out when it is reasonable to travel, and, not with relation to weather. I watch the weather like a hawk when it is stormy, and, yeah, I am obsessed. Here with the nature of the train services in the UK, that is almost always a good idea if one does not want to be stuck. Post-Christmas, I wanted to wait a day or so for travel but was outvoted by my ever-optimistic family and we spent 16.5 hours on a train, being dumped repeatedly en-route along the way to catch another (full) train. I certainly think a bit of weather watching is prudent if plans can be shifted one way or another. Hence the question put here to those who are super good at weather stuff (and very helpful) - timing can make a difference between a good journey and a diabolical one.
  6. Ahhhh. Sunny Spain. I wish. I'm stuck in London working in the middle of a flooded football pitch for the weekend whilst kids head north. Thx Surrey…I am going to cross fingers that they are just ahead of the storm curve…but - yeah - (gloat) off to sunny Florida next week. It's been a weatherful month of extremes here for me with a recent nyc trip into -12 and snow, then back to this deluge, soon to sunshine...
  7. Stunning sunshine! My family (without me) will be en-route Euston to Glasgow 530pm tonight via Virgin trains - was confident that should be fine but looks like that weather is speeding up? Our last journey was an epic 16.5 hours during the post-Christmas storm and we decamped to a taxi in Milton Keynes…anyway, I have PROMISED my 9 year old it will be fine but fearing I might eat my words??? Looks like the met office is also shifting its warnings forward? To me, I feel they are just right in front of the weather but am I wrong? And, btw, thanks to all for all the expertise lately - it's been great reading...
  8. Yes - thanks everyone - ! I'm hopping on a train to Scotland in one hour instead of tomorrow noon (my previously booked ticket) and supremely grateful for all the expertise…! Merry Christmas and good luck!
  9. worse than kids at school - ONE of mine has school, the other DOES NOT! #cruel Looking ahead, I am flying at 7am out of heathrow wens to NYC and the met office has been alternating throwing up a light snow symbol for early wens am (3am-8am) and then removing it throughout the past few days. Anything I should keep my eye on?
  10. Still snowing in Dulwich, fine flakes, small to moderate pace. London looks so so beautiful tonight! About six inches total, counting the base from Friday...
  11. Very light but steady now with teeny tiny flakes. About 2inches on the ground...
  12. Pace has picked up and the flakes are increasing in size. A robust flurry - lot's of 5p and up sized. Absolutely beautiful.
