still snowing here nothing om Radar we have approx 3 to 6 cms

been out all night watching the snow i have noticed the same as others it is still snowing light to moderate here in n lincs but there is nothing on any radar

moderate snow here in barton since 1600 at 6m asl

could be wrong but thing seam to be slowing down on the Eastern front here in N lincs not got here yet (even though it has been showing as snow for at least the last hour)

i hasnt even got to us in Barton yet(despite what the radar says) looks like it is slowing down

we had a good covering here in Barton overnight awaiting tomorrow with anticipation

we just got "your" light flurry here in Barton just starting to stick (1st since last year lol)

a line of light flurry's/showers appearing on the radar stretch nearly all the way to hamburgh may just miss me in the humber area

showers off north sea fading about 5 mile from me am interested to see if it rain sleet or snow (why did i forget to renew subsciption to netweather extra lol)

hi all i have seen over the last few days the forcast has nearly always suggested dry and frosty on the east coast, i deffinatly dont think it will be totally dry (agreeing with TEITS etc,) even today when you look at the radar where only slighter colder air is starting to come into the north sea, i notice specs of showers starting to show offshore, my feelings are if they are showing this early what will the convection be like in a few days or so

hi all i sent this e-mail to Paul Hudson about the gfs/ecm and this is his reply Message Body GFS is the most unstable of all the main 3 models for some reason. But they are all struggling, and its an indication of how finely balanced things are that 3 very similar models can give differing solutions. From: ANDREW HARRISON Sent: 13 January 2012 11:05 To: Paul Hudson-LS Subject: GFS v UKMO/ECM and the rest hi Paul i am an avid weather watcher (BBC/met info /Netweather/ your blog) and have been watching the potential changes that are afoot and i cant believe the difference between the gfs and the other models after as little as 72 hours (still no total agreement at gfs 6z , i am a cold lover and would like us to see an "beast from the east" further down the line but the gfs is still showing the influances from the jet and polar vortex over greenland, i just wondered what your opinion was on the current models thanks Russ

i know all models except the GFS are in approx agreement. but to play devils advocate can you see the GFS being anything like right or some sort of middle ground, i personally am a cold lover but just had this niggle thanks Russ

the met office has just posted another update about thurs/fri with (i think) revised paths http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/news/releases/archive/2011/wintry-and-unsettled

the Met office has issued a warning for snow friday upto the Humber area Issued at - 14 Dec 2011, 12:35 Valid from - 16 Dec 2011, 00:05 Valid to - 16 Dec 2011, 10:00 Outbreaks of heavy rain will turn readily to snow during the early hours of Friday. The snow is likely to accumulate over time with a risk of up to 10 cm over higher ground. At low levels sleet is more likely but even here some lying snow cannot be ruled out. The public should be aware that this could lead to travel disruption on Friday morning. ** just seen BBC weather they say northern track least likely lol**

my heating clicked in on Sat night and was roasted but am sat here now due to come on at 1600 if its cold enough and i am feeling frozen lol so for the the 1st time since last winter i may just turn it up untill it comes on

rain/drizzle very mild night

not sure where to put this so mods please move this in the wrong thread i have just been seeing on the various weather reports on the internet that the la nino is getting a lot stronger and i know it has a cooling effect in the pacific the question i have is what will the possible effect be to us if any this winter

i was out picking Elderberry's on the Humber bank yesterday, i noticed that the blackberrys have finished and most fruit trees are just ready and quite a lot of trees are starting to turn, one sign i have not seen or heard yet are the huge flocks of geese that had already started coming in this time last year
