Model Mayhem - Moan, Ramp, Go Nuts
stevofunnelcl replied to Paul's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Gloucester Miserable morning Rain Hole in shoe ! wet feet cold wind picking up reckon time for nap, may get to see sleet later -
click the more details link on the weather warnings, and you get chief forecasters assessment Huge uncertainty, and warnings will get updated So, they start off covering a large area, but i expect the warning areas could shrink, as they firm up on details Would be great if they stayed like though, perhaps an amber upgrade for some

Model Mayhem - Moan, Ramp, Go Nuts

Most incredible today I begin morning, rain washing away overnight snowfall Climb to northern edge of dartmoor Rain turns more sleet, wet flakes mixed in One hour later, proper transition to all snow takes place Beyond that, it got heavy, it settled on wet ground, very slippery underfoot From high up, i was able to look down, through heavy falling snow, at green fields at lower altitude It was one of those days where altitude made a difference, but snow descended to lower levels as the day progresses As forecast by David Braine on spotlight Snowing heavy in Oakhampton tonight Video from earlier -

That's the awful thing, it all gets tramped on, and turned to slush before a decent cover is established When out and about, i walked for miles, and eventually found a stretch of undisturbed, untramped snow. Total bliss, with crunching sounds So, i enjoyed being the first to trample in it, and watch my footprints filling back in, right afterwards -
Snow is great, to get sunshine on it, when it freezes, so you get that 'crunch' sound when walking on it Ground was very warm after recent mild weather, as i found out in Cambridge last Monday, falling snow was great, it had a hard time staying on the ground, woke up next morning to only patches. Snowmen... were not looking too healthy, pretty much only their feet left ! Got better hopes now... colder ground means snow settles from the start. Let it begin....

replace bucket'o drizzle with that piece of coal Get people further east to blow hard in a westerly direction, maybe blow a few flakes out this way
