  1. lol great post! I remember the 'snowless ages' very well - how times have changed. PS you should add 18th February 2010 to that list as well, huge fall associated with evaporative cooling Bish
  2. Love the fact I don't have to worry about getting to work tomorrow morning - what a great week to book off. Bish
  3. Really??? I was under the impression the Tuesday event had slipped much further south. Things are looking up. Bish
  4. Suits me just fine, I'll treat any further snow as a nice little bonus. In fact, I've treated anything above the 1cm dusting I was privately expecting from this event as a whopping great bonus Bish
  5. You guys must be pretty happy overall though? Not often that Telford / Shrewsbury ends up within the 'sweet spot' for snow? Bish
  6. Just look at all that lovely snow out in the North Sea - what a waste Can't grumble overall however, today has been highly satisfactory. Bish
  7. You're pretty much down to zero now as well: http://www.metnet.co.uk/ Bish
  8. I'd often wondered what it must be like to be stuck under a Wash Streamer. Although that's not what we've experienced today (obviously), the effect has been much the same i.e. stuck under a relatively narrow conveyor belt of constant snow from the east Bish
  9. This started at about 8:45 this morning and, with a very brief exception around midday, has continued ever since. Once it got going again, the snow this afternoon has certainly been a lot heavier. We're now back to the total we had on Friday evening - very satisfactory overall Temp is currently -1.4, with a DP of -1.2 Bish
  10. The southern edge of the PPN is starting to erode slightly now, but only very slowly. Conversely, the main area of snow is still intensifying slightly. Great winter's day. Added another couple of inches I would say Bish
  11. Temperature has dropped back down below zero again, good sign. This has been far, far better than I expected - just goes to show that hours of persistent light snow is just as good as one short heavy fall. Bish
  12. *snigger* The joys of living far from any coastlines. Bish
  13. Yep, it's gotten slightly heavier again now. Really blowing about in the wind, too. Bish
  14. Very light dandruff-like snow here for the past 45 minutes - perhaps it's starting to edge northwards now. Wind has suddenly picked up. Bish
  15. Starting to come down again now, albeit lighter than before. Current temp is +0.1C, with a DP of -0.8C Bish
  16. lol in the space of ten minutes we've just gone from the heaviest snow of the day to absolutely zilch Bish
  17. Probably just the usual midday temperature spike. Will probably start falling again in a couple of hours (hopefully) Bish
  18. Has certainly pepped up a bit in the past half an hour, although still very fine flakes. Temp is now -0.1C approx. As long as the DP stays below zero we should be fine here (currently -0.9) Bish
  19. In that case you're doing better than me - currently -0.5 temp and -1.5 DP respectively here. Must be an elevation thing I guess..... Bish
  20. Bizarre??!! What's your current temp and dew point? Bish
  21. Still just light but persistent snow. Not that I'm complaining - this event could so easily have missed the Midlands altogether A few hours of this will at least partially recover some of the snow lost yesterday, which is fine by me. Bish
  22. Fingers crossed that's what continues to happen. I reckon the likes of yourself and gimmesomesnow are in a prime position, from a Midlands point of view Bish
  23. Ideally we want it to continue pepping up over the south of the region, which would then in turn keep us well within the snow zone for several hours even as everything moves northwards. Bish
