  1. Drizzly and windy here now, but still a bit of snow left. Met Office says rain all day tomorrow, with thunderstorm at about mid-day. What a change between the two days! We need the rain though, as it has been so dry lately.
  2. My snow will also turn to sleet and wash away the snow. I always feel ridiculously sad when the snow melts away. There is hardly anything of the earlier snow left here now, but I am glad that I took some pictures of it at about 7am. I shall tootle over to the mad thread and see if there will be any more in a few days’ time, as that was what was being said a few days ago.
  3. Ah, I have just checked the met office website and see that there are a few hours of snow to come here this afternoon! Lovely! Edited to add that it will be rain all day tomorrow, so shall make the most of this afternoon!
  4. Are you currently in Bristol or in Bridgwater? I am just to the north of Bristol and it is just drizzly rain here now, melting all of the lovely snow. If whatever you have could spread slightly north, then that would be lovely!
  5. Hello! I was formerly registered here just as ‘noggin’, but a change of broadband provider etc and change of email address meant I couldn’t sign myself back in (am useless at that sort of thing) so I have re-registered with a new name. Plus some other stuff as well. Such a relief to be back, but sad to have lost so much history though. Plus my badge. Anyway, we have had an inch or two here, although some has melted. Light snow falling now. Shall try to attach some pictures of the back garden…
  6. BUSES.....All bus services in Bristol, South Glos, W-S-M, North Somerset and Wells tomorrow are cancelled until at least 1pm. Limited services in Bath. Ian Ferguson said that this storm could be "of historic proportions". I must check to see if my MOT and service are still on!
  7. I hope you have a great time! When it's windy, for me it feels like a physical assault! Give me torrential rain anytime...I could go out and revel in that! When I was a little girl, oh so long ago, I used to think that the splashes of the raindrops on the ground were fairies! I have loved the rain all my life and even now will stop what I am doing to watch or go out and enjoy it. I see that the Met Office has now issued a red warning for Bristol Channel area.
  8. Do you know what? You have just made me realise what a cowardly wimp I am! Perhaps I ought to go out and FEEL it, rather than cower in a corner!
  9. I'm glad that it's not just me who is getting anxious .....yesterday was bad enough, but tomorrow will be worse. Am taking car for it's service and MOT tomorrow morning, will probably get blown there! Stay safe everybody.
  10. I must confess that I am being drawn into the "will it/won't it snow at Christmas" thing! My heart wants it to snow, but my head doesn't! Very foggy all day here.
  11. Had a slight frost on Wednesday morning, just on some roofs, where there was obviously no loft insulation. Had a proper frost on Thursday morning, had to scrape the car. Certainly a bit late this year.
  12. Light snow here! ❄❄❄❄ Also, have just discovered that my 2 full water butts are frozen solid! ❄❄❄❄
  13. Sorry to be grumpy, but next door's dog won't shut up yapping and they seem to be banging doors for a past time at the moment. I won't post any more until my mood has improved. Don't want to infest the thread with misery! Good luck everyone, anyway! ❄❄❄❄❄❄❄
  14. I don't have the strength to do any more straw clutching. What a complete and utter load of bilge this has been for many of us. Sorry to be such an old misery guts.
  15. My daughter has just discovered this and is addicted, whilst on furlough. She asks "how many geo coins do you have?"
  16. That would be good as we have several hours of heavy rain to come, apparently. If it did fall as snow, it would be magical!
  17. Snow to the East of here and snow to the South of here! Might have to go and visit family in Exmouth for a fix! ❄
  18. I knew roughly when it was, but checked on the Met Office website and it said 24th and 25th January. P.S. I don't mind the pedantics!
  19. Yes, people were falling over like ninepins, including me! It is SO dangerous. My first fall was when I stepped out through the front door, I hadn't even seen it! If we do get it again, I am not going anywhere!
  20. Freezing rain. A quick look in the mod thread revealed one chart showing what is thought to be freezing rain for us. Does anyone else remember January 1996? I have never experienced anything like it and never want to again.
