Meant forecasters on here Lee
Ah ok, sorry read it wrong lol
-
Forecasters saying little about it turning back /more on way... Don't want to get hopes up maybe???
not ramping or giving false hope, but the data they are using is older, may be possible, we'll see
-
honestly dont remember the last time we had a few snow events on the trot, seems to be in the past that we'd get a massive load of snow for one day and that was it, i love that its a few events over the course of a week, takes the boredom out of the week lol
-
Stopped here.
I have a 20 mile drive to work tomorrow from Strood to T. Wells, would you attempt it?
NO, stay safe, its not worth it, lose a day's money, or risk crashing your car, or worse, i cant afford to lose money but when i weigh it up, 1 day less or buy a new car, or end up in hospital for who knows how long, not trying to scare people, but thats how i view it
EDIT: just pepped up again here, bigger flakes and heavier
-
So who ISN'T going to attempt to get to work tomorrow? I only have a 5 mile drive, but I really don't fancy it in a rear wheel drive car without traction control (and non winter tires!!).
I will try, but the roads here dont get much TLC and its all hills and slopes, i jave a 10 mile journey and a 8 1/2 month pregnant wife, also its my last week at my current job, so not feeling like i should risk anything
-
still going here, looks like still a bit more to come, roads very dodgy, and with the freeze overnight may be a struggle to get in tomorrow, will try, but not too hard lol
-
still moderate tiny flakes, hoping for some of the heavy stuff soon
-
heavy snizzley stuff here at the mo, roads trying to turn white but inconsiderate people in cars keep ruining it! lol
-
If that is the case, what I pitiful cold spell after all the SSW hype! Also, the amount if times I've read 'the main event is still to come' makes me laugh. I just have that horrible feeling this is going the shape of the pear. I so hope I'm wrong though as i want the cold / snow to continue.
This spell is due to the initial downwelling the full affects should show towards the end of the month
-
NMM model also going for 5-7cms across Kent and Essex, probably 3-4cms for the rest of the region, but what is worth noting is that all comes down in the space of a few hours, so it'd be a decent fall.
Sunday really is increasingly looking like something to watch, models have been steadily upgrading this feature. A touch marginal close to the coast BUT the flow is coming from a cold France/Netherlands/Belgium.
is the 1st bit to do with sunday, or tonight? sorry to ask but i'm not sure
-
Love the way the MOD thread, GFS shows a potential breakdown and the "usual suspects" start posting again!
dosen't bother me, just find it funny how they have been quite latley...................
-
Guess what?
Yes more back building - heavy snow now again.
It certainly looked cold for Kaddy( on two fronts )watching the weather
Edit heaviest snow now !
must say i noticed too!
-
bigger flakes, heavier now too, glad i got home (just) stupidly went my normal route, which includes some nasty hills, but made it, although slightly sideways lol
-
still snowing lol how long can this go on for?
until it stops? lol
-
snow is heavier now, small flakes, but roads getting a cover
-
I can honestly say i am guttted for those that have had no snow, i think we all know what it feels like when areas close to you have snow and you dont, fingers crossed for all the snowless people, keep the faith
-
moderate to heavy snow barnehurst
would people like a model and snow update tonight
s
Steve, i think people NEED you to let them know what is showing, i really feel for the people in the East, i want them to get the snow! (also i want more too)
always appreciate the time and effort you and JP, amongst others, put into your posts, keep up the excellent work
-
seems to be getting heavier now, thought it was all over for now?
sky looks laden with it, if only it would let it go! lol
-
seems to have picked up a bit here, not alot, but more than 30 mins ago.
expected more, but as i got some it better than nothing so i'll take it! lol
-
been snowing since 9am here, although very very light now, shame really as the sky looks packed with it.
Not sure about Sunday's forecast alot can go wrong, but fingers crossed eh?
BTW is the worst still to come with regards to the SSW, from what i have read this cold spell is from the initial downwelling, the full affects to come towards the end of the month??
-
wow, that is very close!
just asked the wife she say's "it's up to you" thanks wifey, that helps alot..............................not lol
-
Tough one, in london a couple of cms 's of snow falling quickly can bring traffic to a standstill so hard to say.
I think it will start slowly though so may be able to judge when it's getting too bad an leave in time?
yeah, im just woried as Crowborough's ASL is 240, so its a hilly ride home and also the height usually means more snow than surrounding areas, will take wellies and a big coat incase i need to walk at all!
hope everyone enjoys the snow and stays safe
-
OK, serious question, do i go to work this morning? start at 8am, snow due around 9am, from what i gather, my wife is 8 1/2 months pregnant, andi really donr want to get stuck!
-
heres an EASY one for everyone at the end of the week-
when the front comes through use the 850s' at -2c to guide where the snow to rain line is...
just an aside the reason the UKMO are going snow to rain sunday is the UKMO was agressive in bringing it t hrough day 6, however the Updated ECM is very slow like the GFS & more particular the GEm that is ALL snow..
expect there to be some SHOCKING forecasts on TV in the next 72 hours-
stay here where we have dynamic up to date models... ( of the weather kind )
S
I was thinking this Steve, it seems the general movement is slowed and maybe ,(maybe) stalled as it bumps into the colder air, which to be fair, will be well and truly solid, but for the beeb to be on board at this time frame is quite rare!
There's somethin' a brewin i tells ya!
(although i still stand by my last comment, that things can change DRASTICALLY)

thing is, the GFS had the breakdown for Wednesday a couple of days ago, its been pushed further and further back, alot can change in 6 days, not saying it wont happen, but could easly go the other way too
