Just sat and watched a cell blow over. Lots of long rumbles and the odd flash. The strange thing was watching whisps of dark grey clouds just seem to get sucked into the mass.. never seen anything quite like it! Is there a name for that?
I hope the shield malfunctions. It's been years since Sheffield had a good storm. Fingers crossed for a miracle! Radar and strike watching driving me crazy.
Still a fair amount left up here. Thank god school is over for Easter tomorrow because the pavement snow mountains created by the drive clearing numptys will take forever to melt. Worst thing is the roads are gritted and traffic is flowing as normal yet walking on the pavement is like a Swiss mountain hike..grumble grumble..
Got quite heavy up here then back to lots of small flakes. -1.7° reading on weather station currently. Winds gusting now and again causing mini blizzard.
My thoughts exactly pit.. I do love weather in all forms,yet it can bring out the selfishness and stupidity of most people. Im sat at home sulking now, I've sprained my shoulder trying to get my toddler over said mini snow mountains.
well due to the roads being in use by cars yes i had to take my children on the actual pavement.. They have gardens and a verge but the trend here is to make two four foot walls of snow between ones drive and the road grr
1.7° here currently.. Sun breaking through periodically. School run sucked big time..it was below freezing overnight so over a foot of frozen laying snow..and huge piles of cleared snow on the pavements..why people are so inconsiderate is beyond me.. As long as the drive is clear! Sod the poor pedestrians ..grumble
Temp risen up to 2° according to my weather station.. Wind chill is certainly lower brr .. Can't get an accurate wind speed due to the wall of trees blocking the wind :-(
Temp of 0.09° up here.. Just had a look on meto app and they have sheffield down for heavy snow between midnight and six a.m. There's a definite melt but the wind is catching the drips and turning them into ice.
Just had to venture outside to dig the cat a path to get to her spot.. 24cm on the level bits.. Drifts of varying depth..biggest in garden was 2.5 foot deep roughly..and its still snowing!
It's difficult to say with the sideways wind blowing it everywhere. Looking at the tops of the garden furniture possibly between 15/20cm ..I'll measure it later. The drifting is much deeper..
