WYorksWeather We dont need to do anything. Nothing we do in the UK will make even 1/1000000 of a degree difference, yet it will cause immense harm, poverty and deaths from said poverty! Net Zero is all one big con IMO.

Whatever we do or dont do in the UK is futile. Net Zero carbon is basically a scam to tax and control us. We are making ourselves poor, hungry and risking energy blackouts for literally nothing.

Whether one believes man made climate change is real or not, in the West it is being used to try to bring in basically totalitarian or even fascist policies. If we do not row back on the insane "Net zero" soon, the UK will experience frequent power outages, food shortages even famines, and extreme poverty within the next 5-10 years.

This has truly been a dire winter for anything remotely wintery. Worst one I can remember TBH.

Looks like we got ourselves another cold chase over the coming week looking at todays models! Lets hope the chaser messes up for once and we get through to the proverbial final for a change!

Another roller coaster will it wont it be really cold/snowy. I love the drama but hate the effect on my life expectancy! I have seen this every year since I joined Netweather. I dont remember a single good freeze up that was modelled 7-10 days out and just happened without drama, setbacks and highs and lows! This one feels like it could be a good freeze up, as the PV is more disturbed than I usually see! I am no expert though even after 15 years of Netweather and reading countless tutorials, I just enjoy rare weather and this amazing forum!

Cracking storm moving through very fast. Seriously strong wind gusts for 5 mins too!

Just had the 3rd and heaviest storm of the day, only lasted about 20 minutes but had 2 VERY close lightning strikes with instant thunder. Love it

Here in NW London, I would give it 9/10 for cold, 1/10 for snow, and 0/10 for enjoyment. Total let down. Worst ever fail TBH. A whole week of serious cold, easterly winds for 4 days straight, but not even 1cm of snow.

This situation reminds me of many during the 1980s. Day after day being told by the BBC cold will be pushed aside by the atlantic, and them a day or 2 before, it switches. The situation now from todays models could still easily switch and go full on cold.

Classic 1980s situation, where most of the time it never made it anywhere near where the night before's forecast said it would before the block sent it packing.

Im pressing like as you are an expert, and I really hope you are right !!!

Lets hope the scandi high can build next weekend. This is a one in 10 year chance, possibly 1 in 20 years during the coldest part of winter!!

Can I get the holy grail for NW london, snow cover that completely covers the grass. Not seen it in years. Cant complain, last weeks snow was better than the 5 preceding years, even if it only lasted 12 hours before becoming a slush puppy

In the 1980s I lost count of the number of times a breakdown from the West never made it to London, or better made it, stalled and dumped copious snow for hours on end. We can hope that the current setup can do it again Thurs/Fri
