Well I do know somebody who got seriously injured from skydiving, that’s why I thought of it as an example, but yea, surfing in these conditions is asking for trouble, I agree. remember a few years ago in a Torquay, there was a pretty bad storm coinciding with a high tide, the waves where crashing over the wall. Some kids, decided it was fun to play chicken with the waves, one got caught and just escaped, didn’t learn the lesson though and carried on. some people are just a bit mad ?

Why do people bungee jump or do sky diving? Some just like the rush. Each to their own, not good when other people have to put themselves at risk to rescue them though, perhaps he thought he was such a good / experienced surfer he could handle it. guessing he won’t be doing it agin in a hurry though!!!

Latest from the met, looks like the south getting hit hard soon. Stay safe ? https://twitter.com/metoffice?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author

League has called all the games off. Shame was kinda looking forward to it, oh well will have to take the dog out instead ?

Thank you Nick, certainly pretty wild out there, got football at 10:45 and I’m a goalkeeper, so that’ll be interesting to say the least.

Has the storm moved north nick or is it on the same track as predicted yesterday please?

Sat in the garden in t shirt in February, that doesn’t happen very often. Welcome surprise.

Sat in the garden in my t-shirt, it’s very warm and not a cloud in sight, kinda weather you might expect towards the end of April. Lovely.

Yes lovely, really pleased to see your getting loads of snow whilst I sit here with out a flake. congratulations *chokes* only joking, looks great, we had plenty last night so all good ?

What camera is that? It’s very good quality. edit: sorry I know this is not a camera forum, and I should be more impressed with the snow.

Gin time ?

Old in there eyes. and grumpy

All the kids will be talking about you now and pointing, saying “that’s the house where the grumpy old man lives”.

I’m not very good at forecasting, but this is my prediction for today.

Welcome to the mad house, have fun and enjoy your snow ☃️

Actually on a second look, it does look like the heavier stuff is moving this way, contradicts what the met snow symbols show though. edit or maybe not, hard to tell, very much a now cast.

That’s what I was wondering, does not seem to moving much at all. the wind is N / NNE

Lack of moisture normally in the powder snow, the type we have had here today has not been powdery, but a lot more moisture in it, has not drifted at all, the stuff in March was blowing all, over the place. edit just noticed you are talking about the second beast. Getting tired and the snow slowed down a bit, on that note bedtime. Goodnight all, thanks for all...

Being a spurs supporter your probably quite used to dealing with that kind of deficit.

Yea will echo that sentiment, been a great day ?

Temperature not forecast to get till 1oc until 9am, so whatever you got won’t be melting much. Will be horrible diving conditions, that’s for sure, not worth a risk really, unless absolutely necessary Edit driving, won’t be much fun diving either I imagine.

5.5 inches ??

Drink enough alcohol and ask for chilli sauce and you won’t care / notice NEVER eat one sober though!

Wow, that accumulated quickly ?

13 cms here now, just over 5 inches, still coming down. Unbelievable really.
