    I am sure there is some poetic license applied with measurements throughout the land. I can confirm an accurately measured 9.5cm yesterday in Hawley, Hampshire (28 miles South west of London, 67 m asl). Still half of it left now, out of the sun. Good luck for the rest of the winter. Am often in Horsforth/Yeadon and really enjoy the micro climate up there!

    Down here we don't need to know what 4 inches "look" like, we have these things called rulers and other measuring devices. Probably best not to let your missus know when they finally arrive in Yorkshire. Dont want the truth getting out do we.

    Those 2 charts are far from similar.

    Snow in Farnborough. Maybe a cm on all surfaces

    Well, if it does that will mean that the trough has dug down further and we will be in the colder air - so win win - maybe

    Thanks. That might be it. Maybe someone else will know

    Strange one today in Farnborough. Temp apparently got to 0 having been negative since 4pm last night but a walk around and no ice at all. Not a single remnant of ice in any puddle. Does anyone know why this is? I seem to remember ice on the ground at 3c before. Ground temps?

    Doesn’t that show rain for most of England?

    Great Synoptics that would undoubtedly bring snow and sub zero maxima if only it were cold on the continent. Sadly though it isn’t and that looks like it will leave us prominently cold and potentially wet

    You can get away with it until mid feb. 1991 saw very little melt and that was 8th onwards

    Still 6 weeks left for a holy grail event. Plenty of time. I am not optimistic however. My definition of holy grail: 1. 4/5 days of subzero maxima 2. at least one snow fall of over 4 inches during the period A holy grail event in my location (Reading). Can only be achieved post Feb 14th if total cloud cover for entire period and dew points remain below freezing. I still have hope, albeit limited

    Well seeing as we are in 2019 perhaps Cambridge can exceed it this year

    Interesting - why don't they just use standard rounding to zero dp.

    How do you get these US charts?
  20. ptow
    No, not me sadly. Although do have 11cm.

    How many hedgehogs in Reading?
  25. ptow
    Well, a hedgehog crossing the road brings Reading to a standstill, so I imagine 2cm of snow will as well
