Roads was bad yesterday in lincs as I skidded in a ditch and overturned in to a 4ft ditch. Was in there 45 mins till Mr Fireman came to rescue me scariest thing ever
glad you are OK man...that's the main thing
-
slinging a pair of shorts on as I was running late to pick the misses up from work at 6 a.m wasn't the greatest idea!!
-
Hmmmm Ulrika Johnson used to do the weather...wonder what sort of meteorological training she had lol

Just had a tentative look in the Model Thread and it appears 95% of the UK is in for some of the most extreme snowfall we have had for many a long year. Sadly for me Lowestoft is part of the snowless 5%. It's at times like this I'm glad that I have been a West Ham supporter for more years than I care to remember. This has given me the ability to accept constant disappointment with just a shrug of my shoulders. Good luck to the rest of the UK.
more to come tomorrow night then lol

Well i guess so, Pure spec atm. However some in Model thread are considering the 12z a Major upgrade. Pop in there its all good.
I do poke my head in occasionally but sometimes it takes so much time to pick between the good posts in between the bickering lol
what would be really top drawer and appreciated would be if some of the more knowledgeable forecasters would put a pic of a model up and explain why it is "epic" and what on the model snap shot is causing to happen what they are saying is happening, would really help newbies like myself....e.g someone posts a model and says "epic snowfall for the east" but for me as a newbie all I see is a map with squiggly lines lol

Rememeber when we used to look at GFS precip charts 10 days away and say "Look there's a blizzard/really heavy snow"
Well...we only have to look 3 days ahead now...
do you think T72 is a reliable time frame currently?
-
Hmmm, Upgrade in Model thread folks,If all pans out Sat am could be like this.
is this moving N/E??
-
I can't imagine any of the schools local to me opening tomorrow, not with the temps expected to stay sub zero...temperature is dropping off rapidly here now
-
Dereham about to get hit by another heavy shower....must be a real winter wonderland there now!
Oh yes indeed...kids are loving it and so is the dog!!! this shower showing red on radar....bring it on lol
-
that is awful seems there is a crash on that road every other day.
not sure how reliable it is, my daughter overheard 2 teachers talking about it.....however the dereham slip roads are closed lol...looking at the radar showers are queuing up over North Norfolk, glad i've already collected the kids from school
-
snowing again here now, with a long band of snow stretching up to North Norfolk looking set to track right over the top of us!!
on a more serious note I am hearing of a very serious multiple car crash on the A47, my father in law has been sat static at Easton for close to 2 hours...so take care and God speed if you have a journey to make
-
wow, just got hammered by blizzard like conditions for over an hour...2-3 inches falling....looks like another thinner band now over us...loving it
-
doesn't seem to be dissipating much as it heads in land and its only 10 miles from me now
-
looks like an epic band of snow heading in off the north norfolk coast on the radar!!! and coming straight towards me :0 happy days again
-
for those doubing my ruler earlier:
I swear Look East on the BBC just used this exact picture when talking about the cold!!! quality lol
-
I've always noticed that the more snow you get, the more you get greedy. For instance I got 16cm (ironically) last feb and I was hoping for more and more even though I should have been more than satisfied.
if "snow" is a euphemism then you are beginning to sound like my misses lol [also joke in case anyone was wondering lol]
-
for those doubing my ruler earlier:
but you could have cut some off the bottom!!!!! JOKE lol
-
NR19 - excuse quality of pic as had to use iphone as my brother has borrowed my camera!!! typical lol
-
I absolutely love North Norfolk, you have peaceful countryside, low light pollution and a beautiful coast line that's never overcrowded. Also can get pasted in winter with a good Northerly, East Dereham been known to have a foot of snow from one.
i'm in dereham...i would say at present 10cm and increasing
-
and here comes the heavy snow again...being so close to the pivot point should definitely benefit
already have 3 inches laying so can't complain if don't get too much more -
BBC forecast just showed the wrap around and it looks like it will hit where I am which should see a few more cm of snow with any luck
-
Those of you asking about the wrap-around:
Look up to the NE of England, its happening now
Interest for me is potential intensification as it moves through into the wash - no guarantees, just a theory!
Whole lot will sink south, should head to this region (assuming it doesn't fizzle out or change track) around midnight
SK
SK If it is moving through the wash will it impact on Norfolk?
-
although the BBC still show it stalling and pivoting....time will tell i guess
-
The front looks very narrow on the radar, and fast moving, started snowing an hour ago, and I feel it will pass through in around an hours time, quite disappointed to be honest, can't see it slowing neither

I agree with that sentiment, I think we will still be able to see some snowfall from Friday's event without to much disruption to the colder sustained period, possibly more so over Cambridgeshire, Norfolk....what path can you see the snow taking Friday?
