South East and East Anglia Weather Discussion February 2021 onwards
Big Dave replied to Blessed Weather's topic in Regional
It certainly does and I keep reassuring myself with such charts but at the back of my mind i always have this nagging doubt that every big bust, always starts with "just one model, just one run", just one region... and ends up in total pandemonium (in here at least). But for now... it is, "just one model, just one run". -

I certainly miss an SMU post in here but I think he was also one of the last to accept a downgrade. Hope the downgrade doesnt turn into a bust. Now who do I need to pay to secure that GEM run? -

I know it's just one model... and just one run... and it is only Kent (MBY though!!) but every downgrade starts somewhere with just one model, just one run, just one region... I need to move! -

Lovely morning here with most incredible orange pink sky sunrise. I need to stop looking at snow accumulation charts for Ashford which I know won’t be correct it always show disappointing total for this little town. Either that, or I just need to move north and higher a bit. God I wish I still lived up around North West Kent/ Surrey border.. Oxted, Westerham, Caterham etc would be looking great right now. *Goes off to look at snow accumulation charts and RightMove again ? -

I sincerely hope so! That sounds about right but getting into squeaky bum territory now. When a decent looking snow event disappears from one or two models 6 days out, I might 'be a bit glum'.... but we've now upgraded from there to the 'throw the laptop in the pond' level. I get worried when we reach the tipping point and you cant see how it could upgrade any further... at that point, there's only one direction left... and I fear we may be there. -

Where has all the drama gone? I'm an occasional lurker so I missed quite a bit but seems a number of big personalities missing from the MOD thread which is strange given the current output. -

TBH I cant see that there's anybody in the Mad thread to kick off. Lots of usual suspects seem to be missing. Am only an occasional lurker but I'm sure I'm not seeing a lot of the posters I was earlier in the season which is a shame given the current state of models. The Mad thread now seems quite balanced... probably a good thing, but dare I say bland? -

Pictures don’t do it justice but incredibly vibrant pink orange sunrise from Ashford Kent this morning. Anxiously waiting to see if rain or snow arrives soon. -

Nobody knows and no model has a clue. This is just sport. -

Interesting that the previous record was from 2010! It smashed that record. Maybe we can smash our 2010 winter too. -

And there we go! Tiny bit of snow and there’s a crash on the motorway. snow isn’t the problem, drivers are. -

I think roads will be absolutely fine. It is settling on the road only briefly. sadly the roads aren’t the issue... it’s the drivers. -
