    I love this! Used to watch storm chasers and still follow Reed on Twitter and FB.

    Doing a NW storm chase is on my bucket list for sure!

    And when its safe to do so would love to take you out there on that Unique of all roadtrips with some Giant Hail and Spinning Water Vapour thrown in.

    Theres also a chance on down days we go into the Rockies and do Snow Angels even in June - See storms and Snow ALWAYS!

    Sarcasm?...or serious?, looks okay by the chart you posted/

    That was yesterdays run that I saved just for prosperity and for future archiving

    But.........So far the 12z's are pushing this way way too far to the SE so much that even I am started to get a tad twitchy about Sunday. 

    Lets see what the 18z's show I guess but if the UKV starts shoving this into the North Sea for the Cod to enjoy I will be a very unhappy camper along with most of the SE but I guess for everyones woe some other regionals will be rejoicing and popping the Pomagne

  3. Underwhelming set of 12z's so far the rollercoaster ride in full effect.

    Just as an aside the front that pumps the precip into the Uk has its origins in Eastern Poland through Germany and the Low Countires which is madness. Some of my Storm Chasing Buddies in Holland are expected to get 30-40cm of snow from this as well. Going to be some stupidly low dewpoints by wednesday with some -10c to -15c readings meaning super dry continental air being imported into the Uk.

    Expect to see Rime Ice and freezing fog by midweek as well so get those cameras charged peeps

    If we were to get 15cm here it would probably be the biggest snowfall since 1991. There have been some good events around the region in the last few years but we have really missed out in this part of Essex. Had a lot of cold rain here whereas places just 15 miles west have seen snow.

    i think it was late November 2009 when we got 12cm from a streamer when the wind just veered south of direct East. Usually this side of the estuary we get much less than Kent so this would be a really rare event here if it comes off.

    Nov 30th to Dec 2nd 2010 saw 34cm of Level Snow here, surprised you never got anything more from that event.

    yep some of us at Natwest that travelled by trains were sent home as we were based in aldgate east - leaving us that lived in inner london to work the shift out . Never forget the work home not seeing so much snow since Jan 87 and the biting winds

    Lol Small World

    I worked for Natwest back then at Kings X House and we were sent home at Midday on that Thursday, maybe it was a group idea to send home all the employees

    Small World eh

    Looks to me like another Kent clipper, as usual, heading more south on each run.  So maybe a few snow flurries in the east before the low pulls away, then dry unless living north of the wash. Then probably milder later in the week.  Way over hyped on the mod thread, as usual.

    Thats unlike you to post something like  this

  7. Yh one saving grace is its the worst model giving the maginality GFS as everyone knows is dreadful with modelling and usually gets slapped back into line kicking and screaming. 

    Another thing on our side is no onshore flow for most of the SE until maginality does not matter Monday onwards and only the very Eastern tip of Kent might need to worry with the NNE aspect of winds during Sunday

    surely 2004 was the daddy for thundersnow - a near nationwide event as the squall front pushed south across the whole of the uk. Not a remarkable snow event in itself as was rain to snow - but a unique weather event in my memory.

    OMG how did I forget that 5pm January cracker - Yh that was insane but a crashing north to south cold front as you say wasnt in a cold spell as such, Ok its 5 events Yay
