    must admit one of the reasons I hate easterly winds here because it doesn’t deliver anything apart from being bitterly cold except a few occasions 2018 was one of those.

    Where I used to live, in Surrey, the easterlies were the only one's to bring decent snow. Except 2018 when we actually got virtually nothing. Right I am back off to sleep now.

    Someone has been out with the icing sugar.

    At least I’m seeing something, I guess.

    Just been to the loo and yes, icing sugar here too. Guess I am not quite in that sweet amber spot despite being up on the Wolds. I am literally a mile or 2 away from the Amber warning.

    I remember this! I think we ended up a with small amount of powder snow. I’d take that now tbf! Got a sneaky feeling the snow showers will push further inland than the models are showing ??

    I am up the road from you and have this horrible suspicion we will have almost nothing this time.

  4. Been trying to visit a friend in Harrogate for a few weeks. First time we cancelled as we both hot a bug, second time was last Thursday and I would have got stuck on the roads, third time is tomorrow and what with the current flooding and more rain, we have decided to postpone til Spring. It's my drive up and back that leads me through all the flooded areas.  So we have postponed til the Spring as we were going to RHS Harlow Carr. 

    OH been saying for months snow here in the East Midlands for Christmas. Nothing scientific just his gut feeling. 

  5. Temperatures better for me. I have an autoimmune disease which also causes me not to regulate extremes of temperatures very well. I am better with cold than the recent heat. 

    Despite the radar yesterday showing ppn from Belgium area in a stream, today it was really weird and showed it just bubbling up out of Leicester. See pic.

    Also, despite the fact we have had terrible rain previously and the River Soar had burst its banks, the brook in our village is almost dry.

  6. I have never experienced a storm like that in my life. Almost constant lightning and the thunder was constant, eerie and like someone shaking a metal sheet in a theatre. And the rain was absolutely torrential; I could barely see the houses across the road. 

    Quite amazing.

    Still raining quite a bit now. Lightning and thunder gone north across The Wolds. 

    Bring on phase 2!
