Weather p#@n that is, tut tut for showing that before the watershed. -
Timed my drive up Burrington just right, wet snow was falling up there, was back to rain /sleet by the time I was back at the bottom of the hill.
-
Same here, there's another shower following on the same track so I'm tempted to drive up the mendips and wait for it to arrive, not that I'm desperate to see a snow flake
-
Actually if that shower does make it across it won't matter as it'll pass so close to the north of me, talk about rubbing salt into the wounds lol
-
Bloody better do, hand enough let downs, besides just one decent shower could leave a covering unless it rains lol
-
I'm watching that, could it make it, looks a very heavy shower!
-
I've been watching showers evaporate all night that have been on a course to hit here, irritating to say the least.
-
Don't lose hope just yet, more shifts south could happen at very short notice, our snow in 2013 shifted south to clobber the Channel Islands with less than 12 hours to go before the event!
-
Showers going to the left and right of me, ah well, got the rest of the day to go.
-
Had some rain earlier, netweather radar showed it as sleet but I couldn't really tell looking at the lamp post. Oh and that M4 is getting on my nerves regarding the snow line on Sunday, just 20 miles south of it as the crow flies so just another small correction south needed
-
Welsh mountains snow barrier has been in full effect all night as well checking back on the radar, got my doubts now about last night's points west weather forecast, imby anyway, been showers passing to my east though so looking good for people out that way.
-
Yeah lucky for them, going to pass to the East of me though.
-
Just checked the north West thread and couldn't help but have a chuckle at a certain poster who I've seen so excited in the mod thread over the past few days about the snow shower potential from this setup and at the moment all the showers are missing his location lol
-
Jeez I'm bloody ancient then at 45!
-
With all the snow showers forecast tomorrow a repeat of Dec 17 2010 would be nice, that was a very cold north/North westerly, a streamer setup from the west coast of Wales, started snowing early afternoon and didn't really stop for the rest of the day and overnight. I can but dream.
-
God give me strength! That chart looks like it's been drawn by my worst enemy lol
-
Yeah that's getting tiresome isn't it, us southern folk wouldn't need to do that, or maybe we would lol
-
Great forecast there by Ian, could be a very showery day tomorrow, fingers crossed, don't care about settling snow, just be nice to see some falling!
-
Still time for change with the path of the lp on Sunday I guess, I'm still haunted by the infamous event which diverted and buried the channel islands instead, that happened with 12 hours or so to go before the lp arrived so you never know but it'll take a huge movement south and west for the majority of the south west to get involved I think.
-
I know one thing, if the current pattern we're in keeps repeating, and the models do seem to be hinting at it, if we don't see something from any low pressure systems it's gonna be so depressing seeing large parts of the country, perhaps seeing multiple falls of snow while I watch the rain falling outside my window, especially after the past 4 winters which have been rubbish. Prozac on the ready I think
-
I see the weather forecast I caught on news 24 right at the end had a caption stating possibly significant snow on Sunday, no mention of where though at this stage of course.
-
Couldn't help but post in the mod thread earlier about how awesome the snow chart was that someone posted (yes I know it won't come off as shown), not because it's great imby but more the big shift south of the lp system compared to previous runs, on the gfs anyway (wonder if other 12z runs will continue the trend though). I've seen so many posters living up north posting how awesome and brilliant all the charts being posted were which weren't good for our patch so couldn't resist

Beautiful chart that, just a little more correction south and west would be even better although as others have mentored on here these 'sliding' lows often do correct sw nearer the time. -

Well said, was thinking the same lol -

Had a steamer set up that day back in 2010, all the way from the west coast of Wales, dumped a fair few inches here, would be nice to see a repeat, charts look very similar, doubt will see the same result though but who knows.
