  1. Agreed - Merry Christmas all and I hope a peaceful and healthy New Year to all too. Thank you everyone for their contributions to this superb forum, it certainly helps me day to day.
  2. Was gutted to hear about your loss Matt. Hope you and the family are ok in this most difficult of times. All the best fella. Sorry Mods but had to say something.
  3. I quite agree but we know that is what will be happening now. Lets get this in then enjoy it. Then we can 'worry' about the breakdown. First world problem.
  4. Updates have been superb - but most important is you keep safe.
  5. Indeed. It really is toilet paper but you'd have to buy it first which I just could not bring myself to do. Utter tripe.
  6. Merry Christmas everyone I’m going to continue recovering from illness which is proving slow going and try and make the best of Christmas regardless of the weather. The classic nowcasting of looking out the window will see me right. All the best to you all.
  7. I could not agree more with these sentiments. I tell my children this regularly. How you say something is often the key rather than what you say. Also agree, general theme of pattern very interesting relative to past years where mild mush is the form horse. Not this year. The Christmas cold tease goes on!
  8. Quite agree with this. All have the ability to make their views known and many don't (including me as I don't have the skill). But for what it is worth, Kasim was spot on last year on a number of marginal events around my neck of the woods. He has my backing! If the ECM is wrong, so be it, but recently, the general theme of the runs from the models has been colder from my perspective. The fact that the GFS has now taken its ball home for one run is not enough to make me doubt that a colder evolution is still more likely. The question is how cold and is there a chance of snow for some. We won't know that for some time at this range. But I don't believe anyone suggesting one potential outcome over another should be subject to 'told you so' comments if what they thought would occur did not come to pass. The thrill of the chase is frankly a lot of what this forum and hobby is all about and really, given our weather is usually westerly based it is hardly a 'victory' for anyone predicting that it will revert to that - because eventually, it will.
  9. Yes I think this is very likely. I have to say I am not in the 'Red Zone' but am at some elevation and the wind has become very noticeable over the last hour and a half. For those even further North in the warning area, it is going to be a nasty night. I just hope everyone is ok and can perhaps enjoy a winter wonderland tomorrow morning. A naive wish perhaps, but I still hope for the best. Will be fascinating from a weather perspective but there is an undoubted severe risk upon a fairly wide area with still significant populations within it.
  10. I think there are some fair comments here. If this was London, we'd know all about it - and rightly so. But this the UK - this is a major weather event. Not good coverage at all.
