Far north and northeast of England - regional chat

I wonder if there is any coincidence that it looks like a weather plane has just flown over my house.... 

The plot thickens lol

 

[doctor32]

very light snow flakes falling here Aycliffe the past 10 minutes... you have to really strain to see them though lol

[doctor32]

Models are really ramping up on the potential Easterly and snow risk to end next week... few more runs needed.

Happy Winter, doc!

I haven't followed it that much - looking good for here or mainly EA/Kent? I know that E'lies tend to be better for there, whereas we ideally want a NE'ly.

Thanks,

 

Snow detail very uncertain to be honest, we could get a SE, E or NE depending on placement of high etc. Main thing is for the trend to colder conditions... let the ride begin.

Still light snow flurries here

[Boro Snow]

Light snow in darlo

[Freezing-Point]

This NEly next week could be spectacular.  Much better for snow amounts down the East coast than the recent Beast, as that just blew them over the East coast quick and concentrated them inland.

[P-M]

You cant help get that feeling that we're on the cusp of something mouth watering for cold.  I just with we were within 24hrs and counting it down.

Some light snow grains like glitter blowing in. Day 3 of falling snow, can I beat last season's record of 40.

[Cloud 10]

[doctor32]

[RUSH]

Has it all gone Pete tong then with the cold? Mod thread seems to think so. It’s dire in there this morning. One min blasting cold charts never seen before to people saying the chances have gone.

You really need to spend less time in there mate, i rarely go in as emotions and imby-ism to high.

Great uncertainty regarding next week, huge spread in ensembles around 24th onwards. A trend to a more westerly as high collapses is plausable but still a smaller cluster compared to other options ie cold.

[doctor32]

Analyzing every det model run is hard work... Stick to ensembles and take all models at set time frame in to account for a bigger picture

[Summer Sun]

Not the best of day's today dull, cold and dry

Overall though we're no where near Beast from the East 18

 

[Summer Sun]

Another week we can write off at low levels. Probs going to be Feb now unless the last few days of Jan can deliver

Might as well say it as it is.

Look how quickly the mood turned sour in the mad thread when things went to pot in the past few days...

[Rollo]

Well yes and no,the longer term prospects have remained positive but member s must  be suffering some sort of fatigue from hopes being unfulfilled.

i am due to come to Darlo this Saturday (weather permitting)! So if I see anyone on skis I will wave. Regards MIKE

Well i did think this week it would have been so much busier in this place. Quite a shock on how it all went Pete tong very fast. 

Still its January and there is time left....isn't there. 

 

 

[doctor32]

Hopefully Feb will deliver.

Time will tell

[Dahonis]

It all looked so promising with some brilliant charts this winter. As always, just a computer prediction as what maybe. However, so far, they have nae delivered  .....yet
