sleet in Knowle Bristol

Bristol this morning

Its like the 10 day forecast on here, the 10 day forecast on the weather outlook and metcheck all show snow falling for my area Bristol on at least 4 of those days in that 10 day period currently..but the met office forecast shows nothing similar and in fact has us up to 10degrees by the weekend. So clearly something is wrong with the data some of these sites use as they don't ever materialise....

snowing in Weston super mare and avonmouth/Bristol...

Driving from Bristol To Weston on A370 a small flurry on snow on the top of the hill near congresbury....

Video posted on local papers website showing storm over Bristol last night, woke me up at 4am http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/watch-spectacular-scenes-lightning-storm-214812

Blue skies here is Weston super mare, very light high cloud so we shall possibly see nothing this time around

thunder and lightning with heavy rain here now, same in parts of Bristol too....

I'm in Weston super mare-haze and sky now grey plus a moderate breeze building, hopefully the start of a storm building

Funny how Thursdays produce amazing winter weather then by Friday morning its all slowly disappearing...the charts below were being posted in the model thread last Thursday 5864e97c4703b_ScreenShot2016-12-29at10_45_19_png_5023a58e1f28ee36e58d6d9df888271f.bmp gens-0-0-276.bmp

Another Hokey Cokey, From Front to Back loaded winter in the uk again. Hard to see where model watching begins and ramping ends. I use this when I want to see what's coming as the charts always backtrack or disappoint. https://www.ventusky.com/?p=51.5;-0.1;4&l=temperature&t=20161107/12

Click heels together.... There's no place like home There's no place like home There's no place like home The cold/snow is only 10 days away The cold/snow is only 10 days away The cold/snow is only 10 days away It's the same every winter..............................

Rain/hail/thunder/lightning for last 20minutes in Weston super mare

Coming out of Bristol this morning, Thunder, Lightning then a good quarter inch of hail from the portway through avonmouth and onto M5...currently is Weston super mare with gusty winds and rain/sleet....

just like they tweeted about snow last week...BBC weather is as bad as The Voice...more about the presenters that the reality.....
