Just now, I Cumbria Marra I said:

Wonder if it was this snowless in 1962/62, 1978/79, 1987, 1991 etc

I would think so yes.  We've had a bit more than a cm here most of it came Monday night and there have been a few dustings since but there is a real precipitation gap from Wigan/Warrington area up to the Kendal area. Will always be the same I'm afraid if it's snow you're after you could not have picked a worse place to live.

Well guys you couldn't make it up. I am in south west England right now, in north Devon. A day of snowstorms was forecasted for today and tonight. They missed my location and I am in the only part of Devon that has no accumulations of snow. to the the south east and west of me there are talks of accumulations of up to 30cm, I genuinely have got a dusting. Snow set to hit tonight looks like it will miss me. Words fail me since there are no words which can describe how sad, lonely and gut-wrenched I feel right now. Starting to wonder if my life is destained to be a total failure.

Bloody hell if they reckon that the worst of the winds have yet to arrive then it’s going to be a wild night.

I am now hoping the wind strong enough to blow snow from the hills to here.

We should start a group for depressed people who live in snowless areas

Northern Rail has announced that all trains have been cancelled on the Buxton line tonight, because of the snow. There has been severe disruption and delays on the route for a number of hours, because of the weather and broken down trains.
All buses stopped running early in the day - have to count our blessings - think of anyone needing urgent medical attention - No Trains, No Buses, Every outgoing Road Closed, No Local Hospitals.

Plenty of people will be laughing at me in here I know I am not popular in the slightest. Today should have been a nailed on epic. All around me talks of 39 cm depths and I have a dusting. Struggling to come to terms with this.

I do feel very sad for you ?

It’s really strong but the unusual direction seems to be making things even worse.
