Why would they be particulary happy about car damage?

So what were your worst power cuts or issues this fall/winter and spring period? What was your worst issues you faced regarding infrastructure to either your house or things connected including pipes?

Sorry but the early 20s beat you to the punchline!.....never mind the blog has been scrubbed along with many good websites on search engines. Sites I used to see are gone now. Scary the levels of censorship. I didn't fully believe Google would try it's hand at the 'Ministry of Truth'.

Feels like some of the Mandel Effecters (I choke trying to call it that as I don't think it has anything to do with Mr Mandela) are right. It really does feel like we lived in an alternate timeline and anybody would laugh at us if we mentioned how society would turn out to be back then and asked us to be voluntary committed!

I don't get it. Why do some post get insane replies where people like you and me get hardly any? Your thread deserves recognition. I have a question. Was the power outages widespread with that much structure destruction?

How cold in your area and what type of homes are more likely to have this issue? Does it ever happen to public places too?

For example northern vs southern UK or even western UK where it's more mild? Which areas are 'tougher' against wintry weather or grind to a halt more easy? I can't imagine most of the UK being as bad as London.

I dunno what you mean as I get random weather stuff with just the words 1979 when I type that in.

What parts of the UK are good or bad at handling snow and wintery weather?

I looked or tried to look at the rest of his 'channel' but it's a mess like they just haphazardly threw it all together. Do these people have no concepts of playlists? They throw everything into 'videos' so you have to shuffle thru hundreds of videos. Sadly no one will do it. Do phone people not mind things being done randomly as on a PC it's click scroll click scroll click and scroll or scroll and click.

On the third picture why is the fog so dense to the left? Some kind of water source there?

Do you think it could be where on the high pressure your placed? If your on the north or eastern end of the high would that affect things vs being on the south and west quadrant of the same high?>

Does UK fog ever get as bad as Tule fog where things shut down when it gets thick enough at the right times?https://www.bakersfield.com/news/whos-calling-the-fog-delays/article_11988c9f-6dd3-56b1-a6c6-edcb1df37363.html (Use AdBlock plus) Here's a snippet: Weather delays, 2000-01 to present 23 Days of fog delays in greater Bakersfield* area. 102 Delays or closures due to ice, snow or fire in El Tejon School District. 30 Delays or closures for snow and ice in Tehachapi and fog delays in Belridge, both second most after El Tejon. 11 Days of widespread delays in Bakersfield area in 2002-03 alone. Widespread fog delays by years in greater Bakersfield 3 in 2000-01 2 in 2001-02 11 in 2002-03 2 in 2003-04 2 in 2004-05 2 in 2005-06 0 in 2006-07 1 in 2007-08 (*) Greater Bakersfield includes, in most instances, all Bakersfield-area high schools and elementary school districts; all Shafter, Wasco, Delano and McFarland schools; Lost Hills and Elk Hills schools as well as Richland, Pond, Semitropic and Standard.

In your part of the UK what causes school closures and is it like the US when it happens or do they do things differently when they do close over there? Also what's the most number of closures in one year?

What was your worst scenarios of such a thing? There's a site here and he never has trouble with his power no matter how windy it is. What do you think is so different between him and you? Latest Diary 2020 at Llansadwrn, Anglesey, Wales WWW.LLANSADWRN-WX.INFO Llansadwrn weather diary 1998 - 2020

How much of Birmingham shut down? Was it a total cluster trap like Portland after that kind of snow which the news goes to Troutdale to freak everyone out where trucks slide off of a certain I-84 overpass?

Odd. The PNW had low level cold air that whole month too! One of the coldest modern stretches!

Why would cold do it? You don't get as cold as here in Oregon! Wales rarely goes much below 0C.

I'm surprised. The winds you get there would cause power outages by the tends of thousands here in the PNW sometimes hundreds if winds are around 50mph though lately they are able to cut the numbers back pretty quickly within the first half hour of the storm and only rural properties remain without power thru the night or next day if the storm is at night. We've in Aumsville never had more then a 3 hour cut storm related. They are pretty quick to get things up here despite our town being small on the map. The news tries to make it sound like our grid is from Africa or some 3rd world country but it's not an issue here!

What do you think changed in Europe to not be like the PNW mass outages (which is also toned down).

Also how do you turn on heat? Is it one of those awful 'smart' heaters or a knob of some sorts? Funny thing the house before ours also had a digital thermostat but it wasn't a smart heater. Digital thermostats started in the early 00s I think as our last house we bought in 2003 in Silverton. Smart heating came along much much later especially here in Oregon! We were the back of the pack.

Do people in England have electric wall board heat? A lot of older housess out here in Oregon do especially rentals and they have a hard time keeping up when it goes into the mid 20s..In fact our house in Quincy California had wall board which we knew would be a piece of crap so right away installed propane heat which I explained in my last post and had a map of our old house there. It was a blue color then but now someone painted it a weird yellow!

Despite your website being wonky to use it has a lot of potential! Wunderground only has data back to 1996 and it is hit and miss.. Now more miss with their redesign to be like phones! However your map needs to be allowed to use mice to pan around it. When I try to pan with my mouse it just assumes I want to see the weather stations selected and all I want to do is move around to hover over different weather stations for the day I select! / Also your website is being ignored and that's because the majority are on phones and from what I've experienced around here phone users don't do 'websites' they just scroll for news and entertainment casually. I can already see your website will not fit the requirements for phones Google made harsh changes in 2013 without telling anybody that your website has to be PHONE ONLY meaning you can only have 3 or less clickables and everything on the top row.etc or they won't list you PERIOD and you won't know your not being listed. The only way TO know is if you put your site thru Google Analytics and see if you pass or don't pass and why it doesn't pass. Though your website partially fits Google's harsh criteria as your map is not mouse friendly! Too bad. I finally figured out where it is you have to click pan to do it but the pan button is really tiny. A phone user may see it with no trouble but on a PC it sure is really tiny so not user friendly to say the least and when you change the time frame for each day it resets itself and you have to press it manually each time!

1995-1996 was a good snow year for us both in the valleys and especially the mountains. The Feb 1996 floods were exceptional but I wasn't in Oregon then so never got to experience them. Little known fact though before those massive floods there was a brief but fashionable snow and ice storm that then quickly warmed up but not without causing issues of it's own! Hopefully this is an analog! Was it also an election year?

What was it like to flip the heat on? How long did it take to feel comfortable and what is your heat source?
