    Considering I was expecting very little I have a nice covering outside with everywhere white including the paths. I know some are disappointed but the lack of snow for some is not a surprise to me.

    Have to be honest sometimes the MOD thread gets on my nerves when a cold spell is on its way. If you post a chart suggesting little snow then members moan and suggest the model is rubbish. Yet these are the same people who will come back to this thread in a few days time and moan at the lack of snow. They will then moan about members overhyping and misleading other members in the MOD thread. This happens everytime and becomes tiresome.

    Have to be honest rather underwhelmed with the snowfall predictions in the model output for my location. If I was honest the Arpege, Hirlam have been posted this morning but personally I have always found the Euro 4 to be most reliable. The locations that seem to hit the jackpot is Lincs to Northumberland. The problem for my location and others is the lack of a N,ly element to the E,ly flow. I have seen the wash streamer mentioned but this will not occur from a direct E,ly flow. I will add even for the far SE the Euro 4 only suggests light snowfall.

    Rain turning to snow on the latest Euro 4 as the front moves SW and the colder E,lys set in.
  5. TEITS
    This snow should move SW into Saturday morning as the front clears. However how much activity is left on the front is uncertain.

    Spot on Nick. Lets look at it this way. I class a decent spell of cold weather when temps struggle to get above freezing with a decent covering of snow. Now to expect this for just one day in mid March is expecting alot. This to occur for 2-3 days is very rare indeed. Personally I shall just enjoy whatever arrives this weekend and couldn't careless whether the cold spell extends into next week. I know my Dahlia seedlings won't be happy with this cold spell!

    Incredible temp, dewpoint difference between Saturday & Sunday.

    I felt like that during the 2010 winter when I missed out many times. I also missed the heaviest snowfall during our recent cold spell as RAF Wittering had over 30cm of snowfall and is only 20 miles away. Still this won't put me off chasing next winter because you will always get winners and losers.

    Just started to snow again here.
  10. TEITS
    Nope still around 3 inches here. The temp has never risen above 0C today.
  11. TEITS
    Must admit the current output for next week isn't my cup of tea. However hints from the models that maybe the following week might prove more interesting. We are very unlikely to see a return of the type of cold spell we have just experienced. We could however see more snow events especially if precipitation falls during the night.

    Just posted this in the regional but thought I would post it here aswell. Overall a pretty decent cold spell with temps never getting above freezing this week and many days of snow actually falling. Currently have a very decent covering here as photos from other members in Peterborough have shown. Only negative comments is I cannot help thinking to myself what if? What if during Wednesday when the coldest upper temps, lowest thickness values were over the UK, the winds were a ENE,ly rather than the ESE,ly? All the snow that fell across Scotland/NE England would of hit here instead? What if the cold spell occurred in Dec/Jan? even colder temps and more importantly the snowfall would of been much greater due to warmer N Sea SSTs. So whilst a decent cold spell it still didn't match those E,lys I remember in the 1980s especially with regards to convective snowfall.

    Light snow at the moment but difficult to tell due to blowing snow everywhere.
  15. TEITS
    Latest EURO 4
  16. TEITS
    Depends because even light snowfall can give decent amounts if the band of snow is very slow moving. Also conditions in the N of this region are much more favourable compared to the S.
  17. TEITS
    Strongly disagree with this thread. Last sunday the BBC were warning about the snow for the S/SW. I think the Met O were spot on with the amount of red warnings and the timing of issuing them.
  18. TEITS
    Pleased to see the Euro 4 has finally agreed with the other models and moves the band of snow further N. Tricky part of the forecast is the front will become very slow moving across the N of this region with the band of snow slowly weakening. How heavy will the snow will be and how far N will the front get before becoming almost stationary is impossible to tell.

    Nobody notice the fax for Tues chart!

    Amaziing sight here watching the wind blowing the powder snow. Something you rarely see here.

    Decent covering this morning. Light snow currently falling and temp is -9C!
  22. TEITS
    As of 1pm RAF Wittering is -2C. http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/weather/maps/current?LEVEL=140&LANG=en&WMO=03462&R=310&TIME=std&CEL=C&SI=mph So I seriously doubt the 2.6C you mention. I always use official weather stations. Our local weather station is stating 1.2C but this is always too high. http://www.peterboroughweatherwatch.com/ Always correct at night though which suggests a problem with its location and effects from sunlight.
  23. TEITS
    I doubt its 2.7C. -2.2C here at the moment and much of E Anglia is currently below freezing. Any thawing will be due to the strength of the sun rather than the temps. I cannot believe some of the moaning. This is an exceptional cold spell when you take into account the synoptics, upper temps, thickness values, time of year. For example the 06Z GFS is suggesting -17C upper temps tomorrow across E Anglia. Regardless of the temps, dewpoints any lying snow will thaw under the sunshine due to the time of year. Such a shame today I have read posts from people complaining about those posting in the MOD thread. Like I say this is exceptional but the time of year is watering down the effects on falling and lying snow. Besides this nobody posting on the MOD thread can be accurately predict how much snow will fall. I am as much of a coldie as anyone on here. Frankly though the way some behave is pathetic in my opinion. Much more important things in life than snow!
  24. TEITS
    Surprised this hasn't been mentioned. Latest Euro 4 is very impressive for N parts of this region.
  25. TEITS
    Worth highlighting the risk of heavier more prolonged snow tomorrow morning for Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk which then extends W across the region. The highest snowfall amounts obviously in the E.
