Snowshine

0cm snow here... It's just wet outside.

Awful. Light rain with maybe one or two flakes of snow... To be honest I expected better, and my expectations were low...

I am honestly so disappointed. I just went outside and all I felt was heavy raindrops... to think that could be huge flakes of snow falling I'm going to formally complain about the weather here...

It's 2C here and raining. It sucks!!!

It's raining, and this cold spell is already a failure.

These north-westerly cold spells always seem to fail to impress when it comes to bringing snow. The easterlies always seem to bring the snow here, while the northerlies/north-westerlies rarely bring any decent snowfall. Anyway, the forecast from the Met Office is only rain here, so I'm certainly not looking forward to tonight.

Absolutely no snow whatsoever here, not even sleet falling - just rain.

The forecast here is for light rain, not something I ever look forward to.

Today was windy! A 58mph gust recorded nearby at around 10am. Wind managed to cause some minor damage to our house.

After expecting a mild, completely sunny day. I was very unlucky to be caught out in a downpour mid-afternoon which caused the wind to really intensify.

Once again, another vile day. Having said that, tomorrow looks like a nice day, 14C with sunny spells. As for the upcoming week, Tuesday looks decent, cooler but sunnier than Monday. Wednesday looks bad and Thursday looks vile. Mild temperatures, overcast, light rain... everything I despise. Should be cooler by Friday, albeit it will remain cloudy. Similar pattern continuing into next week. SO... nothing interesting as the weather remains tedious with no sign of anything wintry.

I am glad we avoided all that rain in Cumbria, but I am certainly not impressed with the lack of wind in my area. I just don't understand how the Midlands can avoid so much wind.

Wind Warning pushed North so Midlands shouldn't expect much.

The end of a dull, mild month. The sunshine total this month was just under 38 hours, which is almost a record-breaker (far below average). It was also the second mildest month with a mean monthly temperature of 9.5C in Coventry. In addition, it possessed of one of the mildest November days at a temperature of 18C. As for early December, expect windy, wet and mild weather instead of any cold weather or any form of wintry precipitation. The charts currently show two windstorms affecting us this weekend, the first and weakest one during the early hours of Saturday (gusts: around 50mph), and the stronger windstorm on Saturday night (gusts: around 60mph). This is of course subject to change.

Maximum gust of only 34mph!

Where on earth was the strong wind today?! All my area got was a 25mph breeze with the occasional 40mph gust at most, much lower than expected. It certainly wasn't worthy of a yellow wind warning, however perhaps tomorrow will make up for the lack of wind. I actually enjoy proper windstorms, but not the trash we got today with typical wind and rain. Netweather forecasting 30mph winds and 50mph gusts for my area tomorrow afternoon. For the record, maximum wind today was 25mph and gust was 41mph.

This year is definitely on par to being one of the least convective years. The number of thunderstorms have been appalling, even prompting me to changed my name from xStorm to xSnow (which I was planning on doing in December, not November). Anyway, hopefully a snowy winter will make up for the lack of thunderstorms.

Disappointed that I saw no snow, but I really didn't expect much, though I got less than I expected. There may be a wintry spell of weather next week?

Wind never arrived...

No snow, and barely any wind. Not the greatest forecast (which was for 50mph wind gusts).

Wind appears to be further East than forecasted, and also much later. Snow isn't existent here.

Nothing in Warwickshire.

Widespread 50mph gusts tonight, even 60mph in the Central and East Midlands between around 5am and 7am. Unlike most, this storm will be most intense as it passes the Midlands. Unfortunately for snow lovers, any wintry precipitation will most likely be sleety or wet, perhaps more snowy in the West. Minimum temperatures will only be slightly above freezing, and maximum temperatures around 5C. This is just too high for snow to settle. On the upside, there is a chance of settling snow (even at lower levels) on Saturday/Sunday night.

This is so disappointing:

This does not look promising for tommorow night:
