    I remember it well.i started work in London in that January, I had to walk 4 miles to the station as trollybuses could not cope, i remember 4 foot of snow ,lucky we had steam trains, to days electric ones are very poor in bad weather. Windows in side houses froze, and record temps of - 10. All day.. Burst pipes everywhere, and some spectacular ice formations, 50% of our wild birds died that winter that lasted for 3 months....this cold spell is a drop of the hat, but glad some youngsters are enjoying something like saw in 1963

    This part of the world is the sushine coast, so yes we do have some good weather here, our best shot is a n/w wind, nothing from the west seems to make it past the Tendering triangle as its known here

    Well it may have been for your area, the nearest snow to me was 50 miles away, ramping on local radio about how much we are going to get, yellow warning, should have been green, then up poped a radio warning, that the heaviset snow was going to be between 4pm and 7pm..and nothing ..well thats past...bad in my books...sorry

    very poor focasting and ramping today, the only thing they got right is the wind..poor radar as well, still showing something above me , but nothing. Also it was forcasted to stay below freezing, well its 2c at the moment and rising...its all over .

    local radio just said 70% of essex will now miss the snow...we are the dryest county in the country...hope sunday its from east and not west
  12. Country Boy
    looking grim fo north essex.upper shear looks to be braking the fromt up...need moist air from north sea fast
  13. Country Boy
    its the old saying....dont belive everything you see or hear

    Agh!! Stop will it or won't it...I posted earlier that with a south east wind it will slow the front up...It will get here and when in does it will stick around and stall. We have just had a few flakes in the wind.local radio saying really heavy between 6 and 9 tonight, which make my forecast about right...

    other region reports show snow line is just west of london and one report of snow from heathrow
  16. Country Boy
    Only one report of snow from mr bloody skirting the eas coast, it's near me but I have a sky full of stars..and a moon. I said it before...I don't trust the radar in winter, the summer one is correct, is it due to moist upper air ...not sure...anyone ???
  17. Country Boy
    Another warning for Mon/Tuesday. As another westerly front bashes up to the cold air. But its the same risk, will it or wont it reach the East Anglia coast,. Most coast line fail to get the Monday snow event. Another thing is strong south easterly winds will hold up the fronts progress this also applies to Mondays event. and a south easterly will be a dryer wind...still hoping

    -1c colder here than this time last night
  19. Country Boy
    Heavy snow showers on the Dutch radar moving towards us, winds have moved to a more N/E. well what wind there is as its slight, Norfolk in firing line again
  20. Country Boy
    Maybe I might get some after all...but still have blue sky....don't really trust the winter radar
  21. Country Boy
    Anything from Mr Atlantic will be short lived, when it passes through it will turn windy and mild...game over
  22. Country Boy
    I agree with lukey. Poor forecast for Essex,we had heavy rain for two hours and now it's dry with a temp of 2c And it looks to stay that way, my fish pond has not frozen over at all this winter. The next ramping is for Friday but again it comes from Mr Atlantic so don't expect much, only a blast from the East is a real winter snowfall .Some have been lucky today, but no blizzards and no real sub temps, . Blizzard conditions with -4 temps is a real winter blast.
  23. Country Boy
    I think it's all over ..it is for me now..2c forecast. All night ...then it all ramps up again for Friday, same problem it comes from the west with to much milder air mixed in...One question where was the beast from the East...that's a real winter blast
  24. Country Boy
    No reports of any heavy snow coming in...no blizzards ...have the major forecasters got it wrong. It's 3c here If this wrap around comes off then we are in with a north east wind, but the satellite pictures not showing that. Rain band now moving towards the low country's .if it comes back then we are in for another chance
  25. Country Boy
    Non event I agree....rain band nearly gone..and the wind is from the south west..has Mr Atlantic won again
