  1. Looks to me from the charts that Hull will see a rain sleet snow mix hopefully I am wrong?
  2. can i ask whats insane about it? as it dont look so its that cold over the uk in the chart you have posted.
  3. The local paper as just posted this about salt levels that there have stored and the fact that there will run out if we have anything other then a mild winter . http://www.thisishullandeastriding.co.uk/East-Riding-gritters-prepared-mild-winter-report/story-17236518-detail/story.html?ito=email_newsletter_thisishullandeastriding
  4. I woke up at about half one and went to look at the heavy hailstorm I could hear and I saw it lighten once with loud rumble of thunder a second after so we had thunderhail!
  5. We have some very small amounts of snow here in hull. It was mixed in with rain so was more wintery showers, but it was nice to see it as I was not expecting any with us been at sea level in hull
  6. I think this cold spell is been very overrated. The night time low for my area is 5c which means we wont even see a frost! i think the cold snap should be renamed colder snap!
  7. I did lolYou just cant take them serious can you! 90% confidence for something happening in feburary i wonder what the forecasting method is crystal ball or tea leafs?
  8. oh dear to be honest I find there forecast laughable. Not because there don't forecast cold but the bit about the cold between 25th and 30th of December with 75% confidence. We are not to sure what next week or the week after that will do but they have 75% confidence in something that's more then two months away! Never mind the ones for January and February just a joke in my opinion.
  9. I want a summer just like the one we have had nothing over 25c and lots of thundery breakdowns
  10. Have any of the big name forecasters predicted a mild winter coming? or have there all gone for cold?
  11. as far as I can tell the well qualified in this forum have said we are still on for a cold winter, but some people are misunderstanding what people are saying and seeing bits of info and incorrectly using the info to say the winter is over! It's the middle of October no one can say either way with any certainty until the stratosphere shows its hand and that won't happen for another month yet.
  12. Heavy thundery showers are my favorite as it produces such large amounts of snow. frontal events because of where I am positioned always end up with 10% snow and the rest is sleet or rain which is a big let down.
  13. still learning so can anyone tell me what a Thames streamer is? am guessing a lot of snow caused by been near a river. I live in Hull which is along the Humber is it possible to get them here what needs to happen to cause then and what are the effects?
  14. my mums knees always hurt her when cold weather is on the way does that count?
  15. Yeah very true i used to be a bus driver for a uk bus company and we certainly had no bad weather training. There wasnt anything in place to advise drivers on daily conditions or anything to warn them if severe weather would effect the day. also when you see some car drivers and the way there drive in snowy conditions it just scares you off the roads hence why i dont drive for a living any more!
  16. I think the problem with our transport in the uk is there dont take forecast seriously am pretty sure in other countrys there will have plans in place for severe weather that are more rebust and better thought out. us in the uk only need a few flakes and everything grounds to halt which is going to need to change if our climate changes to a colder one with worse winters.
  17. Still snowing here very light now though. Bad day for the radars really!!!
  18. starting to settle now but needs to speed up a little to get a good covering
  19. i it seems to have the knack of going around us its very frustrating living here
