  1. moderate snow here yeah, with a few 10 to 15 min heavy bursts, all good. roads tricky on tops again, no gritting on even though its -0.5 up there still, and icy. I can see lorries getting stuck again on the A515
  2. well never mind the hunt for cold thread, Im going to drive up to Flagg tomorrow at 360 plus metres in my hunt for snow haha if anywhere in Derbyshire will get snow Flagg should
  3. I know, its gotta happen now, buffet just hitting the table, red wine, corked, beers flowing. 80s hits on Alexa hahah, Home Alone 2 on TV, little ones in bed. come on, just a few flakes FLIPPING BETWEEN Midlands and Yorkshire thread, thats North Derbys for you, only 15 miles South of Sheff
  4. I know, its gotta happen now, buffet just hitting the table, red wine, corked, beers flowing. 80s hits on Alexa hahah, Home Alone 2 on TV, little ones in bed. come on, just a few flakes 7 of us here partying
  5. oh my, some of radar returns are turning pink !!!!! i just want one flake hahah
  6. come on, it getting tense now, incoming massive ppn, will it be snow for a bit ????????
  7. Fingers crossed, met office showing 50/50 chance of snow showers increasing to 70/80% over 10 hours, so most of day. Id rather be radar watching then watching christmas day repeats haha come on, just need to see a flake or two
  8. well that will do me fine living 8 miles south of chez, haha. this has always had a classic 80s feel, cold air in situ, really cold at surface, systems coming in from the Atlantic with lots of PPN hopefully, and readily turning to snow, especially here. its just do the systems bump into the cold air, then slide away south east, grind to a halt, then drop south, ride over it, or under haha, what am I saying haha. it will be fun to radar watch. but I will be watching to see if the projected system has enough energy to get up to the North Midlands, as we know alot of posters think it might fall away south, but I hope not. as a side note I have family coming down from Leeds Christmas Eve 8pm and some coming up from London, both hoping to travel back to Leeds on Boxing day afternoon, so that could be interesting.
  9. well thats the first time in a long time I will not view the GFS model after 96h. if it keeps placing bowling ball lows like that, whats the point. I don't think I have ever seen them come off, so if it cannot model the Atlantic at 96h then the rest of the run cannot not be serious. I mean jet stream looks punchy from 48 out to 96h, but in all reality a round bowling ball low, not buying it, unless more experience folk on here can explain these bowling ball lows that GFS keeps throwing out, onto the EMC.
  10. Not very often I watch the models come out like this, probalbly never !but ECM looking good, hell MP beat me to it haha love charts to compare, all looks steady tonight, roll on 18z
  11. Thats a chart full of promise, I too have waited watching the Atlantic this past few months, not really livened up much , more knowledgable could probable explain. This weekends storm came down from the north, not west or south westerly very unusually. Todays snow fest appeared short term. I will be watching the ECM with some optimism looking for some height rises North East, as long as the Atlantic can be kept quite, theres some hope.
  12. dont worry, I was under ppn on radar for 45 mins, blue, then green, and yellow before teh flakes came down, haha, but when they do wow. Narnia agin here, good luck, hope it holds together
  13. I think its got more easterly shift in there. if it holds up, and temp and dp ok then London in for a susprise. up here in North Derbyshire we will have 4 hours of it, another 10 to 15cm. not used to checking out London weather but the system looks like it has the legs to get there
  14. still snowing moderate with some heavy bursts. As afternoon gone on, its got better. cars now struggling on the estate. son in law has another 10 to 12 cm, with another 1 to 2 hours of ppn to come, he is at 320 m though
  15. full on snow, hills have disappeared into a milky haze, great bonus, day time snow in Nov. when its cleared, gonner freeze, and hand around
  16. 0.5c, dp -5, plenty of ppn around, and day time snow on , two days consecutive and its November !!
  17. its coming, sky turned from beautiful blue to milky white. maybe light at first, before heavy stuff hits, hopefully, still have 75% snow cover, 10 to 12cms on hills, and very icy, gonner be an ice day in some spots
  18. sometimes this is the best feeling, knowing the snow is on the way, radar returns look great, good reports from other members, temp is 1c, dp is ok i mean the anticipation is a good feeling, that ppn looks pretty good for quite a bit of snow top up, haha well here at least
