Hello everyone!
As usual, I've been absent from the forum since the last threat of snow! None yet here in Bracknell but as you guys in Newbury have some, I am hopeful, especially as Heathrow have cancelled 80 flights. Someone's going to have egg on their face if it doesn't happen!
It has suddenly got much darker in the last 5 minutes and we have precip but it is falling as rain..... NO WAIT!!! WE HAVE SLEET!!!
Temp is 4.2c and ground very wet...
We had a good dumping of hail earlier in Bracknell but nothing since. I've seen the warnings about snow overnight but just cannot believe it. It doesn't 'feel' snowy enough... Not that I have been out today!
How likely are we to get snow up here, about 15 mins east of Reading...
Hi everyone I haven't caught up with the last few pages of posts but will do that now.
Hope you all had a fabulous Christmas and that it is made all the better by a good dusting of the white stuff in the next few days!
Is anyone watching the Stargazing programme? Apparently it could be possible that we could see the Aurora Borealis either tonight or tomorrow night... EVEN DOWN HERE IN THE SOUTH!!! I am so excited! I really want to see this!!!
7.2mm rain today and a mere 660mm for the year. Had some mighty gusts this morning with a maximum of 46mph. I would be terrified if we had the gust speeds that some people are reporting. All calm here tonight and although it felt really cold when I went out earlier, it is 6.7c now.
Uf. Not as bad as expected. The friends were =expected for things to be BAD BAD BAD so I am happy go lucky! xxx Head is in the clouds!!!
Phewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww xx
I have to go to bed. Too much to do tomorrow to stay up for this now.
Night all. Stay safe.
just realised, it is Christmas EVE!!!Merry Christmas everyone

Does this mean no drama for us and I can go to bed now, GTLTW? (please say yes, please say yes) I am tired, got a thousand things to do tomorrow and need my beauty sleep ...But on the other hand, I don't want to miss anything!
It is hideous outside here right now. Gusts today have been over 50mph. Looking at the maps, am I right in thinking there is a squall heading this way which is going to cause more mayhem? OR, will it reduce in intensity as it moves across to mid south?
All quiet here...... (except someone's fireworks!)
The calm before the storm maybe? Anyone able to update me on this predicted storm and how it may affect me in Berks? I am very behind with the ongoings of the weather atm, due to the forthcoming C event
