  1. Pretty much guarantees no snow on the West Sussex coast then.. #Jinxed it.
  2. Totally agree NWS every time we get an Easterly in summer I'm always thinking why now, and you can almost guarantee that the Azores or Euro highs disappears from our shores once winter ends... so frustrating.
  3. Boat teams deployed Jaywick & Maldon05/12/2013 @ 23:30Incident Number: 000000000 Ten boat teams have been deployed in Jaywick, alongside Gloucestershire and Hereford and Worcester fire crews, ECFRS' own Urban Search and Rescue teams and Police support. They are in position in readiness for storm water breaching sea defences. Ten appliances are in Maldon to assist Police and military in evacuating homes there after severe flood warnings were declared in that part of the County earlier this evening. And in Manningtree, fire crews are working alongside Police and Ambulance teams evacuating residents. At 23:56 hrs, crews in Jaywick report that the sea wall has been breached in Hillman Avenue. And in Mill Street by 00:09 hrs water was also coming over the defences.
  4. Flooding now in Broadstairs too.... much earlier than expected, and the Medway tunnel closed as a precaution.
  5. Don't forget Medway includes the Hoo peninsula.... and there is a lot of low lying/marshland around there. Trust me I used to live out on Grain...... for my sins!
  6. Here it is...... http://www.medway.gov.uk/information/newspages/news/floodwarning.aspx Edit....... snap lol.
  7. You still have live updates on the news website though.... Have copied this from Essex County F&R, New potential flood areas announced Essex05/12/2013 @ 22:24Incident Number: 061213 Several new severe flood warnings have been declared this evening. They are: Manningtree Town (233 premises); Hamford Water/Walton back water, South Dovercourt (190 premises); Blackwater North (Heybridge Basin and Maldon) (2,106 premises); Maldon to Maylandsea (168 premises); Tidal River Crouch from Creeksea to Battlesbridge (1,458 properties); Paglesham, Rochford, Potton Island and the Wakerings (1,111 properties) and Tidal Stour Estuary (14 properties).
  8. And no prospect of snow tonight...... +2.7 and a dew point of -0.2 It was hovering around freezing at 6pm..... oh well roll on the next cold spell whenever that may be.
  9. Evening everyone, havn't been on today and only just remembered the snow depth cup........ 7.6mm for me Tom. Sorry about posting late.
  10. I spent forty years in London and it is rare..... You may well be right with 2003 but I cannot recall it that well.
  11. Could see it coming tho....... poor first half. They better pick themselves up Wednesday against wet spam, I won't be a happy bunny getting freezing cold for another inept performance.
  12. Just had a little look at my lamp post and there are still a few tiny flakes falling........
  13. Haha..... remember last season? lol Snow's easing right up now...... edit: Starting to get heavier again.
  14. And unfortunately they have discovered that it still exists! Sorry a bit of bitter rivalry coming out there!
  15. Its not looking good for me in the snow depth cup....... I measured one of the few patches remaining and have a huge 2mm! If I'm leading shunter at halftime, my gob will be well and truly smacked.
  16. So in the snow depth cup i'm up against shunter........ nothing like a bit of local rivalry. I think he's the favourite......... though it will be a close run thing. -1.1 and a few small grains blowing in the wind.
  17. I think that could well be the MO take on things......... But it is the same problem we have had for a week now, more runs needed before we know which way it will go. Two edits on that last post, must be getting tired. Goodnight all.
