It is for me 9 weeks tomorrow departing for 2 months of Storm Chasing in Tornado Alley. God I love the weather -
Like a Blizzard coming down again with big fat flakes, just does not want to give up, the estuary having one last push
-
Agree with that danm This winter has had snow in December, January, February and March which is rare for SE Essex December 10th and between Xmas and New Year delivered, also some dustings in January.

Yh that Kent band is making inroads for Central London, your Beast is not done yet but drying up in the Estuary.

Yep was a good spell of wintry weather Would place it about 5th in notable spells of the last 45 years (My Age) But its got to be up there with the best for how late in the season it was. To have subzero temps for 4 days running (Even now it is still -1c) is something else The sea has frozen over 4 times in those 45 years in 1987, 1991 and 2010 which again goes to show what a notable spell this was. The freezing rain episode is only the 2nd in 45 years as well following 2010 with that as well. The only downside was the lack of Thundersnow and strong convection from streamers but overall if added up over the 4 snow episodes would say around 30cm (1 foot) but max depth was achieved on Wednesday morning with 17cm. Tuesday had 7cm, Thursday had 2cm and today another 4cm. See you all next year because I hope the models have the snow risk wrong for late next weekend and Spring can finally be sprung
-
Temp of -3c here in Lakeside Rain falling Weather is fascinating how this even happens
-
God hope you havent got a stable Inversion above you like we had in our Amber Warning in 2009. You would need to run a Hodo to see wether there is a stable layer though.

Snizzling in Leigh On Sea, cant quite believe it has made it to SE Essex.
-
We have an untouched 10cm in the back garden which was 17cm at one stage but the stupidly low dewpoints and sublimation has changed all that. All 3 kids off again tomorrow so tomorrow is their day to destroy it and have fun. Told them they could only go out there when the end of the spell looks likely .........................Before the reload next weekend
-
These wind gusts down here in SE Essex are the strongest of this Cold Spell, can only begin to imagine how strong they are in the South West Some very interesting things going on above our heads as well. The warm sector raced across the region earlier between 5-7pm with temps rising from -2c to +1c in area and the dewpoint dropping back to -4c Now it has fallen to -1c here and the dewpoint has dropped again to -7c
-
And yes the other 2 for the South East were indeed 01st-02nd Feb 2009 17-18th December 2010

Anyone who follows our summer Thunderstorm plume threads should never give up hope with the weather and precip moving up from France. A few years back everyone in the West Country were celebrating a rash of Storms that were in Biscay and 8 hours later the SE got slammed all unforecasted Expect the Unexpected
-
0.4c here, remarkable change from 2pm when it was -4.5c On the plus side dewpoints are still -5c so would think if anything falls in the SE further West for you guys it should be snow
-
Anyone notice the glaring mistake from Turkishfella ? Surface winds have nothing to do with upper steering winds - please read up on Meterology
-
Also only seen Freezing Rain once in my life in the 2010 Spell. Was amazing to look at, almost like the Krispy Kreme Glazed Donuts you buy, the wheels were encased in ice on my car, absolutely lethal stuff
-
45 here so another 70's child It was the winters of the 80's that made us winter weather freaks Anyway who in the South of the Region has NOT had any lying snow from this feline Cat from the East yet ? Would be interested to know
-
That was for tomorrow, then showed it turning to freezing rain over Devon and Cornwall. Friday just said keep an eye on the forecast but the graphics suggested the furthest east was Berkshire then through Oxfordshire and across to Northern Ireland
-
Incredible Temps for SE Essex still at -3c with a -10c dewpoint and hardly any snowmelt, Icicles approaching 3 feet hanging off the Conservatory Latest BBC thoughts not looking great for anyway east of a line IOW up through oxford and over to Northern Ireland
-
Pretty Classic ESE Streamer here, areas of NE London and NW London will do well here along with South Herts and Bucks

I think the initiation point is pretty much on the Coastline today and not 30-50 miles out meaning Coastal parts will see the snow showers building but places further down the line will get the goodies.
-
SE Essex and the coasts might not do as well as 5-10 miles further down the line as these places seem to be the initiation point. And I guess its only fair that places that have not seen the snow get some. Share and Share alike

Massive Cb's rolling in here

Its screwed
