im so sad... im actually stood staring out of my kitchen window look at my car windscreen to see the sleet splatting on it.... my lord im desperate... i think i need help..lol:fool:

Throw that damn towel in. Come on...you'll feel a lot better. You can always take up bubble chasing on a windy day if you still want to indulge in futile endeavours. This season just ain't doing it.

You can bet March will be bitterly cold but will be just warm enough never to get a snow event. Summer nowadays (and even spring warmth) is getting squeezed from both ends into a 2 day wonder (and they're on separate days!)

 

We'll see about tonight, but I'll not hold my breath :-p

Haha if only it worked like that. Both me and thee will see no snow out of this, of that I can assure you :p

Well the cold air behind it has magically vanished, and it's now 5.2C with light rain.... Not much hope for tonight at this rate. 2015/16, the non-winter.

Miserable outside isn't it? Took the dog out and there is nothing good about this kind of weather, bring back the frost and sunshine!

Our local BBC station now forecasting this as a all rain event for us, another non event that initially promised a lot a few days ago. I suppose at least we have seen lying snow in Nottingham albeit very brief a few weeks ago, feel for those who yet to even see a flake. Another so far poor winter from a cold & snow prospective and the clock is ticking

A cold wet raw day here so far with some sleet this morning in the early hours. Maybe later as the colder nw flow kicks in we will see some back edge snow over high ground.

Gutted absolute rainfest, same here forecast all rain now no chance of it changing to snow later temps to warm and that cold air has made like a banana and split. BBC are a joke at less than 24 hours and they got it completely wrong. Bring on Spring.

Truly disgusting here today: 4 or 5 °C and raining the whole way through. Absolutely nothing to recommend weather like this. The only tiny, tiny compensation is that the rain band is clearing through several hours faster than forecast, so there's a chance of a decent frost tonight and maybe a decent day tomorrow. Mind you, after all this rain that will mean ice everywhere tomorrow morning.

I really do think I would now nominate 2015/16 as the worst winter I can remember. It's going to have to produce something really special as a sting in the tail to change that.

Roll on spring :) At least for the lighter Days... Although i am a snow lover, Maybe the north atlantic cold pool is not such a good thing, i think it's partly to blame to be honest.
