Its looks amazing here, seen lots of freezing fog before but never seen it look so glittery even when stuck on the cars mirrors and windows,top class frost on the trees as well.

Its looking good Still waiting on Mondays anomaly chart but Sundays finds blue positive for England so the snow hunt is over for me.

More snow here in Lincoln than I expected over the last 3 hours. Over

Progress for England and Spain expect English blue on the next chart

The orange on the snow charts for Wales has gone now but if Northern Ireland were to get a super heavy snowfall and the South less, that would look good! 3 day expectedNot much snow cover change friday to Saturday Snow pulls back to the Alps Things look more positive now

Love the snow now casts, it will be useful very soon http://uksnowmap.com/#/

This shows the progress of the snow cover pushing back with Friday 11th compared to Sunday 6th Jan Snow kicks off big time for the Alps http://www.planetski.eu/news/4548 Get something big here and we will and

Reading the charts the Japan sea ice looks normal, long may it continue given the lack of northern hemisphere ice recently.Japan sea ice charts http://www.pices.int...-Shkorba-S1.pdf 11th Jan pics from there

Would be nice if 2013 could repeat that in hi res daz white! With Anglesey and Ireland not spoiling the picture... not asking a lot!

It could turn out like that, for example http://www.yr.no/pla.../Rome/long.html http://www.yr.no/pla...aris/long.htmlBut Wales crossing into England has orange on it on the 3 to 6 day chart to keep things interesting closer to home

This is getting silly now! http://www.bbc.co.uk...e-east-20957161 http://www.reuters.c...=USRTR2YVCM#a=1 http://www.reuters.c...=USRTR3CAQJ#a=1 Reported as the worst snow storm in 20 years and we are still waiting on the ssw with effects peaking in late January. December saw impressive amounts of snow 1st and second out of 47 years http://climate.rutge...i_set=1#eurasia expecting January to do better!

Latest little snow 'pushes' so expect the red negatives to go soon, 3-6day expected snowfall

The forecasts look to me they have picked up on that cold -9 new york and a colder -31 in quebec around the time of that chart , impressive stuff. http://www.yr.no/pla..._City/long.html http://www.yr.no/pla..._York/long.html

Latest look at the big picture and its a upgrade for the 3 to 6 day snowfall forecast Turkey shows how it's done, Italy improves and the ice makes a big jump towards iceland and wants to make a bridge to Japan. Looking for upgrades for Spain Ireland Norway western France and Italy .....not to worried about the UK! Apart from that its one of the great years for snow covering of the northern hemisphere.

The push back since sunday If this snow advance was compared to the World of tanks game the word would be 'attack!' Please! 3 to 6 day forecast http://www.snow-fore...ow.next3to6days

and Eurasia got a nearly as impressive 2nd place 'wonder who let them down!' Only joking. http://climate.rutge...gs.php?ui_set=1Still waiting keenly on the Asia and Europe chart to be showing signs of a fight back. But it will come http://www.snow-fore...ow.next3to6days Expecting it to get back to Germany and part of france...sooon 3 to 6 day snowfall chart shows that and more...

looks like the spread of snow must be getting close to being as far as it is possible to go south without falling at high altitude. http://www.connectam....aspx?id=842362 But it does happen commonly http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=gunQov_wiSo we keep waiting and hoping! At least the Gulf of Bothnia looks like its has decent ice described here http://www.digidrift.com/gulf-of-finland-kemi-cargo-ship/

The snow rankings against the last 47 years tell the story of 2010 v 2011 but how will DEC 2012 compare?!! Departure against the mean November 2010 Eurasia 27/47 place -205K square km of mean Snow cover December 2010 6/46 +1419K N.hemi 22/47 place +348K December 2010 4/46 +2454K November 2011 Eurasia 5/47 place +2152k square km of mean snow cover December 2011 26/46 +23k N.hemi 4/47 place +2715k December 2011 34/46 -546k! November 2012 Eurasia 8/47 place +1697k square km of mean snow cover December 2012 ??????????? N.hemi 5/47 place +2287k December 2012 ???????????

I know people are fed up and hate this word but! 'Potential' is a cold straw that I'm grabbing with both gloved hands!

Plenty of snow but not the widespread cold yet early this year that was killing many people http://www.guardian....-eastern-europe and no monthly cold records appearing on http://coolwx.com/record/ but that may change....plenty of winter left to watch the real cold and snow not the -18 for a few days and 10 inches of snow that the UK gets in a cold winter! ...snow drifts aside

Eurasia snow cover was ranked eighth out of 47 Novembers this year and the Northern Hemisphere fifth so it was well above average we do not have many days left to see if this December is well ranked for the bigger picture http://climate.rutge...i_set=1#eurasia

That's about right, what you are saying .. first week of March for ice http://nsidc.org/arc...-sea-ice-graph/ Early Feb for the snow flicking though the years http://climate.rutge...week=6&ui_set=0
