  1. Hopefully there will be conditions like that this winter, i would of thought that you would of got more snow living in your location due to stalling fronts.
  2. How much snow did you get in Feburary 1978????????????????????????
  3. I believe the winter of 1982 was classed as severe with a overall winter CET of 2.6C.
  4. Although i do not know what it is, you can clearly distinguish the occluded front approaching the west of Ireland.
  5. I would assume, living so far south you have not got much snow in recent years, exept for last Feburary.
  6. With the Greenland High getting stronger and the Azores High getting weaker, i believe that the Azores High will no longer be a factor by September.
  7. Where is Chelmsford, and how much snow did you get from the easterly of Feburary 1991?????????????
  8. It sounds like there was a classic easterly setup, would anybody be able to post some attachments of these snow events as i do not have enougth global space left to post attachments.
  9. Does anybody have the link to Joe laminate floori's column. I believe that the reason for those warm sea surface temperatures to the south of Greenland is because of westerlies coming off a warm Canadian continant, if i am right, then once the continent starts to cool in September, the sea surface temperatures will also cool, it is good to see that there are no posotive anomolies to the north of us. Also, is that a slight La Nino that i can see developing.
  10. At least the south will see some rainfall over the weekend as a fairly deep low goes over the British Isles, it seems that the lack of rainfall is most evident in winter, most likely due to the fact that the sea is favoured for the heaviest frontal rainfall.
  11. If the Jet Stream is to the north of the British Isles then there is usually high pressure to the south of the British Isles.
  12. The reason frontal rainfall has declined is because in recent years, frontal systems have aproached from the north west rather than the south west and as a result have had to travel over more land and have decayed, especially during winter, the reason for this is because in recent years, the Jet Stream has been much further north of the British Isles than is usually expected.
  13. I believe that i only reached a temperature of -0.6C that day, it was freezing however i still liked it. In the end of Feburary event, the temperature managed to reach 1.6C for a hour before dropping below freezing again, because i am fairly young, that is the best cold spell i am able to remember.
  14. Great photograph, i only got one inch from that event, and i cannot be more than fifty miles east of you, which just goes to show how the west missed out on the significant accumulations. Was there not a ice day the next day?????????????????????
  15. Mnay areas of the south actually did better off from this event than the north, because by the time the frontal system had reached the south, there was no warm sector which meant that while i got two one centimetre falls of snow, London got five centimetres. I do think it is pathetic that five centimetres of snow brought London to a standstill.
  16. I hope there are not many sunspots during the winter.
  17. If al factors had come into place, i could of had upwards of fifty centimetres.
  18. Last winter seemed to have a lot of those events which even gave me snow, i expect a lot of these events during the coming winter, however they will not be marginal and the cold air will penetrate south.
  19. Here are the charts for the christmas of 1968.
  20. Being young, the most snow i can remember was in 2001 when i had around eight inches, which pales in comparison to what you get however i was born in Peterhead and may decide to move back to Scotland.
  21. Could you give me the date one of these wave depressions came, so that i can veiw a synoptic chart of one??????????????????????
  22. We are talking about snow events, so i do not feel that we are off topic. How come you can get snow from a south westerly, is it because of your proximity to the centre of deppresions.
  23. How much snow did they usually bring??????????????
  24. That is what caused the November snow event, the wave must cause dynamic cooling in the upper atmosphere.
