hurricane-anna

Are we expecting any of this heavy rain to 're electrify later on? Everywhere I've read seems to believe in overnight storms x

Then this one too 20210703_172128.mp4

Just took this, was a minute and 10 secs lapsed into 7 secs... quite explosive out there 20210703_171751.mp4

Prediction for tonight.. an amazing storm kicks off around 7.45, gets closer and cuts out the sky box at work (bar supervisor) just in time for sterling to score the winning goal for england, storm passes and the match is all over, and the major party will commence till closing time... then I get a soaking on my midnight walk home

Oh streamer out in north norfolk please please come here... must be mad but spent the last 2 hours in the garden sleeves rolled up soaking wet cleaning and refilling my hot tub soo gonna get my ass out there in an hour or 2 when its finished filling up for an ice cold beer and a couple of jagerbombs... snow falling whilst I'm in there would just be the cherry on the top of a bloody cold knackeringafternoon... please please weather gods... I'm not greedy... just some falling snow

Heya hope ur well, what kinda timescale are we thinking for thickness and 850s to fall? Showers coming off the wash starting to lift my spirits here, fingers crossed a streamer will form and turn heavy xx

Heres hoping, think it's the only way precip will reach here.. never know might turn to snow earlier overnight and give us a cm or 2 out of that 1st band haha #strawclutching...

Does anyone think there might be a wash streamer set up?? Usually we can do really well from these type of events here in Peterborough.. heres hoping

Hello all, really starting to get worried for us here in peterborough,think we might be just a bit too far north and west shouldn't be down thou as had a couple of cms 2 weeks ago.. just looks like such a good set up to be missing out on.. oh well fingers crossed something changes for us here, but wow to everyone else in the area, about time the south east and east Anglia were the area to get buried . had a look in the MAD thread earlier and the way some in the Midlands were complaining about 'us' getting the snow and how bad it was that it wouldn't reach them had me so so close to giving them a mouthful Haha I mean think of how lucky theyve all been for some time now... so so glad I try to stay outta there, I mean hey it hasnt even snowed yet and they're looking for the breakdown words fail me they really do... hope everyone is keeping well, and good luck to all in the coming days, some of you are gonna get totally buried xx

It certainly has, it's been a lovely day and the size of the snowflakes, wow dont actually think I've ever seen them that big, something was really different today that's for sure xx

Really cannot believe what's happened here today.. wasnt supposed to be this far north, but hey a good 4 hours of snow so far, seems were got a bit of stalling above us, past hour and half weve had flakes the size of prawn crackers.. and still going.. totally amazing, hope everyones having a great day, and those who havent seen anything yet really hope things change for u soon xx thankyou so much snow gods. my twins (1 on tuesday) are so wowed by it, they havent left the window all afternoon hahaha (been a lovely day )

Fingers crossed u get something today, we had graupel yesterday literally lasted a couple of mins then was gone Haha whilst all around had lovely big 50p sized flakes... u never know, might get lucky today then time to look towards feb and keep fingers and toes crossed

I dont think peterborough has ever been so so unlucky, snow has been north south east and west so far this winter, a few days ago a very good band came right above us, turned to rain a few miles west, then after it passed turned back to snow.. icon has us in a very good area for today but tbh I cant see it happening.. really am hoping something makes it here but chances are slim, for whoever's gets lucky today get some pics for us and totally enjoy it, us all in this area deserve it (blow some this way if possible please thou haha) xx

Proper snow here, lovely big flakes woohoo.. time to enjoy it in the hot tub with an ice cold beer

Heres hoping, looks like were in a potentially good area, well 1 eye on the radar the other out on the sky I guess Haha good luck

Hey hope ur well, Where abouts are u, I'm near the city hospital and still rain here, fingers crossed it turns soon, radar looks like it's getting closer

Yeah I'm wondering too plz, also in peterborough and app now says 100% chance of snow for tomorro and thursday, just doesn't match up any other forecasts I've seen, has anything changed?

I feel so so sorry for anyone new in here trying to learn, some will just be here hoping to find an insight of what the weather is doing, those who cant yet read models etc.. luckily ivebeen watching models and weather pattens since the good old days of the bbc forum what a place.. I have to say in the past few weeks this place is more depressing than the local shrinks office.. stop taking every run as gospel, snowmageddon, 62/63 type winter, colder than the north pole, then all of a sudden it's nearly spring, winter is off, let's wait till next year, then wow snowmageddon ??? seriously, take a break and enjoy the current cold spell, we would have been dreaming for these synoptics last year, some of u dont know when u have got a good thing right in front of you... personally I wont be leaving as I know how to stay level headed.. but my word theres a lot of people I'm ignoring.. For all you newbies, weather watching is very much like a rollercoaster, but this is the 1st year I've ever seen mr bean take over the controls. Hang on in there, ignore all the o.t.t posts and enjoy the current pattern, it really is exciting.. good things are to come I feel Happy new year to you all..

Seriously, can't we just have model discussion in here?? All of u writing off winter on the 11th dec make me laugh.. yes we want snow, yes we want cold and yes we want a white xmas but were a tiny island mostly influenced by the Atlantic.. most years we struggle to get a dusting of the elusive white stuff, if it happens it happens, most of the time these things 'pop up' within a very small timeframe and even the best forecasters get taken aback by how fast they show up and then become reality.. personally I love watching possibilities out in fl but seriously how often do they come true.. I'd rather be here to learn, observe and see if it happens, but slashing wrists over 1 run, calling off winter in the 2nd week of december??? I think some of u need a long lay down with a few bevvys and some off screen time... Sorry for being a mardy fart... Please get back to the models... sorry for being off topic

Anyone who gets this storm later is gonna love it.. (as long as it lasts..) near constant thunder for an hour and half now, still flashing and grumbling away although the very heavy rain has passed.. looks like more incoming in a while such a happy anna here right now... good luck to all of you wanting storms, fingers crossed you get some like this or even better xx

Wow just wow.. 2nd storm of the day and this 1 is a beauty.. near constant thunder some amazing CG,s biblical rain... omg couldn't ask for more... well worth the wait

Hoping I'm in a decent area for later on, looking good so far.. cloud starting to break, sun is poking through, feeling rather warm and humid out there, even have a little blue sky above, few cauliflower tops popping up now the suns out heres hoping...

Very odd.. rumbles of thunder here, but nothing on the detector??

Ok so this is a new 1... feels so chilly out there, grey skies and oooooh thunder... rain starting to fall now and quite a lot of grumbles... sadly no lightning thou but plenty of thunder

Wow just wow.. looking south...
