i feel robbed, cheated and broken, im leaving christchurch forever, however it did snow heavily but it was to wet to settle

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion:]

so tc we are looking ok for bournemouth?

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion:]

To be fair the later it reaches dorset the better, gives those temps a chance to drop a bit. Tally ho

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion:]

rain me thinks, for all of dorset especially here in xchurch, i can see our snow shield up and ready for action lol

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion:]

sorry guys, but does anyone have any idea yet about christchurch and bournemouth, if its snowing in plymouth then that would be good news for coastal areas?

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion:]

anybody want to comment on christchurch chances? Please all fingers and legs are crossed

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion:]

temp in christchurch is 2.2 dew point -1.2. we def wont get any today i think

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

maybe, just maybe this is our best chance of a decent snow in dorset, well east anyway, though it is extremely marginal at the moment.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

sky update at 1.55pm said heavy snow across all of south??

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

just started to snow in poole

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

asipre27. Just add to your comment, i live no more than a 1000 yards from the sea. In possibly one of the mildest places in the country (christchurch), and we still have lying snow!!! although temp is around 1c there is no real thaw happening here. I await this weekend with baited breath, mind you after last weeks efforts im not overly hopeful off a dumping!!

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

anymore due for east dorset?

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

still chucking it down in christchurch, all of our non essential staff have been sent home, wonder how much longer it will continue. We have an inch on accumulated snow and gathering all the time, anyone know how much more we are due?

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

We seem to be getting it coming in from the south east and north, its like its pushing into a vacum from both directions lots of snow all around the east dorset coast now

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

we are taking a pasting in christchurch

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

I was living in leeds last year when we had the last big snow event. Now i am witnessing the biggest blizzard i have ever had the privilige to watch taking place in christchurch right now its stunning!!!

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

this really is quite a scene, the snow is coming down heavily in christchurch and the wind has picked up and has started blowing it around. Looks like something from the day after tommorrow LOL

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

looks like things are ramping up a bit more than was anticipated for dorset, makes up in a small way for the rubbish we endured yesterday

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

i think snow showers for us in dorset are set fair for the day, its got heavy here, is settling on cars and pavements

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

in boscombe temp is 0.8 dp is -0.8 so yeah should stick if all local temps are consistant

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

i can confirm, we are having a heavy snow shower in christchurch now!!!!!!!!!!!

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Waiting with baited breath. i really hope christchurch gets some, its very dark outside and the logistics manager has just informed we are expecting continuos snow fall from midday onward we can but pray

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

so take it that the snow we were due in dorset has decided not to happen now? or am i reading it all wrong

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

its still snowing really heavily in christchurch, but its just to wet to settle. Maybe when the temp drops a bit hey!!

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

heavy snow in christchurch now, temp down to 1, wont settle after the rain but i still think its promising now
