    Temp has finally dropped just below freezing here, strong SE wind. Dry at the moment. Just watched weather on BBC Breakfast and it looks like we may get more snow on Sun
  2. stainesbloke
    That would be so disappointing, I'd think I'd have a meltdown lol. Good thing is France/Low Countries temps are dropping like a stone and that's where our air will supposedly be coming from so should get much colder overnight/tomorrow.

    Nothing here nr Heathrow yet. Apparently its snowing in Reading now. More concerned about the temps, still 2C! Thought they would be much lower, it was actually warmer today than yesterday. Better not be a bloody damp squib

    Great updates, cheers everyone taking the time to do so. Am v happy the rain threat seems to have eased for Sunday with us staying in v cold air That's more like it!
  5. stainesbloke
    That would be great lol Here's praying and keeping everything crossed!

    Good to see the sun today, temp has stayed below freezing so far all day Currently 0C.
  7. stainesbloke
    That's my main concern, a slushfest. Hopefully not!! We need to keep those daytime temps at or below freezing.

    Looking good for a decent snow event Fri....will it all be washed away by Sat tho?
  9. stainesbloke
    Totally agree with you. Most models show snow turning to rain in the SE, to avoid that the fronts need to keep further south leaving us in the very cold air. If we are to get 10 inches of snow only for it to start melting 12 hours later I'd rather it just rained to be honest, nothing worse than a slushfest! Anyway, could all change so I'll shut up now lol
  10. stainesbloke
    Hehe yes, everything crossed even my eyes now I think, time for bed!
  11. stainesbloke
    Yup, I can read cheers just saying that daytime maxima of 2C are no good for snow IMHO, slushy mess not my idea of fun. Keep those maxima below freezing and game on!
  12. stainesbloke
    If that's the case then hello slushfest. Daytime temps needs to stay at 0C or below. Better chance if the fronts stay to our S.
  13. stainesbloke
    Quite possibly, though my long term memory is pretty good, thanks all the same.
  14. stainesbloke
    Thank you. Most of the snow events I remember from the 80s had below freezing maxima day and night for a few days at least. All this marginal crap can go do one lol
  15. stainesbloke
    Quite agree. I remember the big snowstorms of the 80s well, it was usually below freezing day and night for a few days beforehand, ground frozen rock solid, ice inside windows etc. I'd rather see this low head further SE and allow the really cold air to move in from the NE ready for the next low Snow turning to rain has to be my biggest weather pet hate! Saying that daytime maxima are progged to be at 0C or below from Thu...good stuff
  16. stainesbloke
    Lol, that has to the most hyped up post I've seen today I'm remaining cautious, have seen similar set ups in the 80s which delivered nothing or rain in the end. Big potential is there for sure but at this stage that's all it is. If the charts are showing the same on Fri morning I'll start dusting off the sledge!
  17. stainesbloke
    Yes, some great charts churning out for the end of the week. It does look IMHO that the block will hold with increasingly cold temperatures across much of the UK. Good to see daytime maxima not progged to rise above freezing....that's really important and reminds me of many of the snowy spells in the 80s. I remember temps in those cold spells stayed sub zero for days, even in London. Awaiting further charts/info with interest!
  18. stainesbloke
    Just had 2 rain showers here and the temp appears to have risen!
  19. stainesbloke
    Chance of more snow tonight? What do u guys/girls reckon? Sun out here and cloud clearing SE, still very cold at 1.8C. Everything sopping wet outside and with the clear skies looks like some nasty conditions
  20. stainesbloke
    Looks like the MO were right predicting rain south of town, much better to the north of London. Here in west London it's been quite heavy snow but wet, everything soaking. Glad I saw a dusting earlier, hopeful for end of the week. Those of you with lying snow, enjoy!
  21. stainesbloke
    Back to heavy wet snow in my part of the Staines Riviera
  22. stainesbloke
    More sleet here now
  23. stainesbloke
    Pretty heavy snow here not settling at all though, temp nearly +1C
  24. stainesbloke
    Snow quite heavy here now, good sized flakes Even if it rains later its so nice to see.
  25. stainesbloke
    Very little of snow dusting left here now, melted very quickly in the last half hour. Looking forward to seeing what the next front brings. Just started snowing again
