Just had an intense hail shower pass through and now the sun is shining with blue skies. You wouldn't believe bad weather was coming.
-
Yeah, but you know if it was colder the precip would decide not to show up. Tis sods law afterall.Miserable here.Temp 4.7 degrees and rain getting heavier and looks like next 6 hours or so it will get heavier.Can you imagine if this rain belt was a snowbelt.We would end up with about 6 inchs of snow!!If only.....

As my Dad would say: it is p*s*-istantly p*ssing it down.

Sorry to be 'that person' but in laymans terms, what can Kent expect on Saturday?
-
Seems to be mainly going around us here in Medway or is it yet to come?
-
No T&L but it's certainly blowy and rainy.

You know I was saying the other day it's almost like Winter has forgotten to arrive and April has come round with all the showers, rainbows and odd weather. I'm still optimistic we'll see snow, as I've said before it's not uncommon to get it in March and even April.
FWIW, I think people flouncing for being asked to post remotely on topic is a bit unnecessary, it's why the mods have created an off topic section after all, it's not like you can't post your musings elsewhere. We all go off topic to some degree and that's why a little OT stuff is allowed on here. It's not like we're in the MOD thread here and I love this thread for that.!
And yes I realise that last paragraph is OT but what can I say? I am a hypocrite

Well there is only one thing for it on an evening like this. Stick the heating on, curl up with something terribly comforting and calorie laden and then snuggle up in bed listening to the rain on the window.

Chill out people (no pun intended) we've seen snowfall in March and April in quite recent years. Need I remind you of tbe March snowfall that brought the SE to a standstill a few years back.

Of course, Ryan. I adore snow and lampost watch with everyone else. And if you're happy to stay up and watch for one flake, then fair enough. All I'm saying is it will be a few flakes if we're lucky. I'm not putting a downer on things, if anything I'm being realistic and not making this into something it's not thus ending in disappointment.I'd love to see a full on blizzard, but based on NW history people have stayed up and been knackered and frustrated in the morning when the chances of snow have been far, far higher than tonight.I love snow, but staying up to maybe see a flake seems nonsensical to me. But I genuinely do wish all those who are staying up success and I would love to be proved wrong.An you can't tell me you haven't been waiting for snow this whole winter so far?? No need to put a downer on it for ppl, even if I see a flake I'm guna be happy so at least be happy for the ppl who will actually wait up for the snow.. It's a waiting game as has been since day one of winter an now here we are with the right things in place maybe not everything but it's something! Have some faith.

Really don't get why people are wasting time wanting to stay up, even IF it does snow, it's going to be no more than a brief dusting which will melt quickly. I'd rather conserve myself and sleep so I can go to work tomorrow rather than be exhausted in the morning.
Where did you go MK?

I dunno, I mean even if we did get snow (and even when it s forecast it often doesn't happen), the ground is too wet for it to lay, I think.
-
Nice brief, little storm there. Was like being in a car wash for a few minutes, few flashes in the distance. Nothing special, but certainly a perk! Almost derecho like!

Is it the weekend yet? No? *mopes*

I swear I recall Humble or someone saying that it's actually us the takes red squirrel habitat, not the greys. That reds and greys can live well together in areas where habitat isn't threatened.
Goes to google to double check.
Edit: Yes. Red squirrels favour habitats that are often destroyed for farmland, whereas greys tend to favour dense woodland. As grey squirrels are more adaptable they cope better with habitat loss. Both types live harmoniously in protected habitat areas.

Can you imagine if that happened here? I would be like a kid in a candyshop and The Daily Express would spontaneously combust.well look at this short vid shot just outside Chicago of the lake effect snow where is currently falling at 3-4 inches per hourhttp://instagram.com/p/jcoje9Ffo7/#http://instagram.com/p/jcaOzvlfkH/# now that is biblical snowfall

Hoping for a change from the wind and rain now. Hopefully it will turn colder so I can take delight in coming home, sticking on the fire and getting under the blanket.
Also it would be lovely if the gritters forgot to go out one night and we had a huge snowstorm meaning everyone gets a snowday.

Well the Medway storm shield is working well. It went around us again.

Got very windy all of a sudden but I reckon the storm will go north of us.
-
Is the torrential rain and T&L headed towards Medway?
-
The near constant rain reminds me of blowing your nose all the time when you have a cold and thinking 'there can't possibly be anymore up there?????'.
