    Neil, weren't you the one asking for a prediction map that ISNT xcweather yesterday because it kept insisting the winds would get some east in them, and bring the blobs over, and they never did?

    Wasnt far off that here today... But, when I urge caution, I get accused of being "inflammatory", "mild lover" , "BS" and so on. Just need to keep it real, people. Tempering some expectation with even a tiny dose of reality leads to less disappointment in the end. I've heard it all before: "we will be in the freezer for 2 weeks" = "we might be in the fridge for a couple days, then situation normal again". BTW, as anyone thats been in here this week will know, I am not a mild ramper.My middle name is not cocksoft! But then again if you are in here just today, you may not know this! We had a mild sector ruin the last frontal episode. Thats not to say it will definitely happen again, but is something that should always be considered. That was disappointing! Then, despite METO saying a week of ENE/NE/E winds and North Sea convection, only a couple of coastal places (Sandwich, Deal, etc)saw anything from that. There just wasn't enough E element to the wind. Is it just me that remembers we were forecast several cm of convection snow this week? But I am a realist -- so here's looking forward to how things pan out tomorrow. Stay safe, people! My doggie loves the snow, and I'd like nothing more to see him mucking about in it (he hasnt seen it since last year when he was a couple months old!

    Im not gonna argue the point, we shall just wait and see. Now if you have something to contribute as to why I might be wrong, I'd love to hear it.

    ANOTHER warm sector - here we go again! rain, sleet, snow, drip drip drip f f s it hasnt even started yet. Please say it wont be like that after all the waiting!

    Dont say I didnt warn you!

    Not rubbish! It was a chart posted by one of the mods on this thread. And temps here today were easily 4 degrees! Dont say I didnt tell you so. I dont appreciate Peter Cockwash either, but I'd hate to see him proved right, Neil.

    I think those in the south (Kent, E.Sussex) shouldnt be so excited. I dont want to spoil your fun, but surface temps tomorrow are predicted to be up to 4 degrees. With how mild it got today, I feel there is warm sector at play (again!) So snow might be melting as fast as it falls for many tomorrow -- just a word of caution to the wise I thought we were guaranteed sub zeros and definite snow, though? Not from the charts Ive been lookin at (on this thread and on the models thread) Its always worrying when people start on about "this ones for the bin" etc. It means it doesnt forecast what they want, thats all!

    I think its all off, everyone! Seeing an incredible 6 degrees on my weather station at the mo! So much for daytime max of 0-1 Deg!
  9. abovefreezing
    Wheres the front gone on that? And the dartboard low looks like its dragging s h i te up from EU? no?
  10. abovefreezing

  11. abovefreezing
    Thank you for that, absolutely fantastic
  12. abovefreezing
    Right, still looks somewhat promising to me around 3am, so time for some kip. Thats IF its not ANOTHER slushfest! But there's a sayin about things coming in threes...hope not 2 slushouts and counting...
  13. abovefreezing
    You had snow last night / the early hours, didn't you?
  14. abovefreezing
    How come CockCrap still has a TV gig, whilst Rob Mcelwee is shoved behind the scenes somewhere?
  15. abovefreezing
    I'd bet thats bound for somewhere to the east of Maidstone
  16. abovefreezing
    I cant remember a single case where a snow to rain event has been proven wrong, not one!
  17. abovefreezing
    Help please -- Duz anyone know how to persuade a Watson W-8681 to read negative DPs properly? For the first time this week, its showing a negative DP of -176.3 Deg C!! All the while DP is zero or above its ok, but instead of seein -0.1, it goes to -176.3 !!!! Software update perhaps? I think its always done it...
  18. abovefreezing
    Only after a few beers
  19. abovefreezing
    Agree. Its a 3am job. Source xcweather -- wind forecast charts On the plus side its already abt 0 deg temp and 0 deg DP, so by then we do have a chance of something unlike earlier this week - that yukky horrible cold slushy mess that is typically on its way out by breakfast time, and gone completely by elevenses!
  20. abovefreezing
    We wouldn't know. We have no idea where you are!
  21. abovefreezing
    Just when it started to settle a bit, too! It wasnt me! Was it steveinsussex?
  22. abovefreezing
    we were all wondering if you had any luck earlier tonight -- as well as the snow
  23. abovefreezing
    Whats the dp now up there? A tad too high, like here, I suspect. Bu66er!
  24. abovefreezing
    Like to say yes, but looks like that one's bound for Nottingham!
