Does anybody know what the cloud formation is out to the West right now. Remarkable, looks a little like tractor tyre tread. I’ve tried to photo, but only got a phone and it’s hopeless. Never seen it before.

The tourists have arrived, Mc Donald’s packaging thrown into the lanes, how lovely.

When I loaded up Netweather just now on the computer, it shows part of Michael Fish's bald head at the bottom of the screen and it's disturbing until you scroll down and see what's going on properly in context. Not sure I've posted in the right place, but I am in Wales.

Tap, tap, tap it's freezing rain! Checked it on the windscreen, I'm effed too
-
This is an unusual setup, I can't remember an Easterly with this ferocity. Surprised we still have electric (and a fence)!
-
Ten miles or so East of Newcastle Emlyn (a drug town witha tourist problem, lol). Blowing a gale here with snizzle all evening, 1cm drifts. Radar has looked promising for the Llanllwni hills here though. Where are you then?
-
Your probably effed too then!
-
A nice right-up Blackrose I thought, I don't know anyone here. I see Coast, who was a laugh on this site, now only posts on UKWW out of his depth, in a serious sea of miserable angry weather autists.
-
benb, your effed then surely if it's freezing rain pulling down electric wires, phone lines, cheezy art shops....
-
It could be the snow is drying up before it hits the ground because of the low dew points and wind. God knows my underwear I washed this evening is already dry and fit to go. I dried it in the living room and it's 19C 27%RH.

Bright echoes on radar not for Preseli hills, instead West wasting into Irish sea ~~~~~
-
Preseli hills about to get dumped upon. Some people there say why don't I work for the the MetOffice? Well, no problem, I'll come and weed the MetOffice garden I say, at £7 an hour (not in this weather obvs) and I can take a bloody big bag of weeds away for £5 (as long as it isn't Japanese Knotweed of course).
-
Plenty more moisture spilling out of Brest.

Bright echoes heading for far SW Wales and far SE Wales. Not a lot going on here, the remarkable thing is the strong wind from the wrong direction! Amazing how the models called this dry corridor up the centre of Wales days ago and it's exactly what's happening. Edit: Well not the centre really, more my house...
-
I've poured boiling water on the slope at my nans I've wetted her slope it's the least I could do, I got milk and bread as well as that dousing Did you wet the concrete ramp and get milk and bread? Ydw Get the bread and the milk in get candles and voodoo It's going to be like 82

I've thought about it a bit and most likely Gavin is Gary's wicked stepmother.
-
To be honest I'm probably not the only one in Wales thread who wouldn't mind pretending to live in NE. I've done a quick scan of your thread and you don't seem to have a bloke dominating the shop, telling everyone that they will be paralysed with snow every half hour. Though Gary posts a lot.
-
It's freezing or just about freezing here. A wind is blowing from the garden's most vulnerable direction. I drove into Carmarthen earlier and saw a chap with all his stuff strapped to a sack truck, just standing there in the sun by the road not asking for anything. Next week the sun will be gone and the wind harsher, it's going to be brutal. Edit: Sorry I've posted wooly poetry in the wrong part of the country!
-
If the current Meto forecast works out for the week ahead the winds for Ponty are NE or ENE so I would think there would be little snow left for areas in the lee of the Beacons. But fair enough the 5th March is miles away so who knows what will be happening by then?
-
Looking at the models and below that, under the computer desk, I can easily see a couple of feet this weekend.

SE and East Anglia general weather discussion 01/01/2018 onwards
cruelwx replied to Captain Shortwave's topic in Regional
I don't think it's the height of Capel Curig, it's funnel effect in a valley from certain directions (this one?). -
Storm Garfield is here and moving on I think without drama. There have been some gusts when I thought we might lose the electrici
-
Come in, Graupel maybe earlier, windy with thunder clap. mongoose all happening now tho, pressure on the up. Shirley just coastal showers, over.
-
Lightning earlier about 7 cloud to cloud. Frozen stuff on the windscreen, icy. Told people we will wake up to some snow, so hopefully this is the case, It doesn,t look to be much, if anything.

Hurricane Ophelia
cruelwx replied to Jo Farrow's topic in Hurricanes, Cyclones and Extreme weather worldwide
Looking at the Metoffice forecast for here, West Wales shows very little rain with this hurricane. 60 mph gusts. The 1987 storm in the SE UK gave us serious flooding in the days after. A train bridge was swept away in the Towy valley and and a train plunged into the river with 4 deaths. I remember the soggy post being delivered because Carmarthen sorting office was under water. Hopefully all my post will wash away this time and all trains will be fine!
