    Temp -0.2 dewpoint -2, pressure 982 falling slowly. Moderate snow: 0.5cm-ish lying. Dog busy trying to catch flakes in the garden and rolling around in it! Three Mile Cross.

    Last video was terrible! This one's a bit better... VID-20190131-WA0003.mp4

    Bigger flakes now. Coming down properly in Three Mile Cross. VID_20190131_205022.mp4

    We've done very well here the last two years. During both events last year snow seemed to build just east and push overhead. Hoping for same tonight! Mind you, I waited a good 25 years before that (with exception of January 2010)!

    Here we go!

    Now moderate snow in Three Mile Cross settling readily.

    Coming down more heavily now. Dusting on roads and pavements in Three Mile Cross. S. reading. Temp 0.4 dp -2.

    Shifting eastwards and moving WNW. Watch the radar animation! I think there should be a note at the top of the page to explain this!

    First small flakes making their way past the lamp post in Three Mile Cross (south of Reading).

    As @kold weather patiently explained earlier, the system is shearing ENE and PPN streaming WNW.

    Temp steady at 0.9 dp -2. Dry. Cloudbase has lowered in past half hour. Much more of a reflective orange than earlier!

    And has a quality song written about him! https://youtu.be/MD3eo63spaA

    Temp 1.0, dp -2. Currently dry, but can see cloud base lowering. Can also see planes stacked for approach to Heathrow (often pass over here when wind is of an easterly orientation), so suggests cloudbase is still that bit higher to the north. Three Mile Cross.

    The Berkshire downs and into Wiltshire always do quite well out of these situations. Some great sledging hills round there too!

    No snow here in Three Mile Cross. The netweather radar has an issue: it's been showing some non-existent PPN ahead of the main front for quite a while.
  16. WhiteFox
    It will diminish (probably) as it makes landfall.

    I was lucky enough to catch one storm that dumped 27 inches. There are some pics in my profile. Hard to believe it was 13 years ago!

    Evaporating before it reaches the surface. Need heavier bursts of PPN to saturate the layers of air below.

    Blue box is mostly at sea! I'm sure the shipping forecast has it covered ...
  20. WhiteFox
    Indeed. I used to love walking around New York when a nor'easter was incoming. Wind is picking up nicely, temp 1.6 dp -2. Three Mile Cross...
  21. WhiteFox
    Yes. Don't know why I bother really considering I spend so long looking at charts! I have a better idea of what the weather will be than a phone app. Radar apps are a godsend in the other hand...
  22. WhiteFox
    Proof, if needed, of how poor PPN forecasts are on weather apps... According to met office app I should be seeing drizzle right now. Definitely nothing precipitating here!
  23. WhiteFox
    I suspect lighter echoes would evaporate before reaching the surface. Something you see a lot in the US with PPN moving in to a drier airmass.
  24. WhiteFox
    It's based on impact though. If there is more snow than forecast, but it falls after 9pm then impact is much lower than if it falls at 6pm. Anyway, let's hope we do see an amber warning as that would be a pleasant surprise!
  25. WhiteFox
    Can anyone confirm if that radar echo just north of the main band is really there? It looks very oddly shaped and a bit out of place!
