  1. I don't understand... are we saying that Scott Ingham day is not happening now?
  2. I think you could be right for the far South West Jim Bob, but are you calling that as a Uk-wide outcome?
  3. Wet sleet at this place which is over 400m: The Winking Man | Webcam WWW.WINKINGMAN.CO.UK Please ask for permission to post images from this webcam/Camsecure/website COPYRIGHT © 2015 THE WINKING MAN, UPPER HULME. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. Please don’t constantly view the...
  4. Thoughts on if any amounts at low level will last beyond Friday night or is a thaw nailed on for Saturday?
  5. In 10 years of following this forum, I’ve yet to see you post a positive comment. I still can’t fathom if you’re a troll
  6. Heavy snow in Stannington, north west Sheffield. -1.8c
  7. Even if it does turn milder, since when was 5 days of cold with at least 3 ice days a “blink and you’ve missed it” event? Yes, looks like we may only get 1 to 2 feet of snow in Sheffield...just not up to those winters you had in the 70s and 80s. M0dern Wlnter.... ?
  8. Pit, could not disagree with you more re snow types. I live in Sheffield (top of Stannington, 230m) and before that I lived in Crookes. This Winter alone, there must have been 5 separate days already where but for winter tyres, I simply couldn’t have got up to our house on main roads. I ventured out on one of those days in my other car which doesn’t have full winter tyres, but does have mud and snow rated tyres and plenty of clearance, and came a cropper on a hill nearbye. In some of the snowier winters in Crookes, some of the cars were stranded on the steep residential roads for days at a time.
  9. Remarkably there is still significant amounts of snow in the Peak District, even as close as 3 - 5 miles from Sheffield city centre. Most of this is in the form of deep drifts in ditches and behind banks, where there has been shade. Even with temperatures in the teens, there is a good chance that snow will last in some small patches through till May. This seems to be because of the sheer volume of snow we ha so late in the season. Does anyone know if snow has ever lasted from one winter through to another in England - however small the patch..? I know this doesn't always even happen in Scotland - but I wondered in it was possible in England on very rare occasions, such as 1962/3 and in the 1600s and 1700s.
  10. 2 cm covering on Crookes, Sheffield @ 600metres. Rain in Hillsborough 1.5 miles away.
  11. 10cm here as well fresh last night - Crookes, Sheffield. I went driving up Ringinglow Road and then to Hathersage around 8am this morning on winter tyres - some roads ploughed, but others have roughly 8 to 10 inch depth with drifts on side above my waist - obviously quite high elevation there though!
  12. Steady on, Sheffield's got about 7inches at the mo - in 2010 Sheffield got 17 inches! And it was followed by severe cold. This is not in the same league - still good though.
