    Aye, ba, I'm fully aware of that.
  2. Methuselah
    Having been taking in information for what seems like an eternity, I'm expecting sleet to fall this Sunday; Beccles is just too close to the North Sea, for snow, on this occasion...
  3. Methuselah
    Maybe not, technically, but quite close though: the less-cold air is almost up to the Firth of Forth.
  4. Methuselah
    Being only a few miles west of Lowestsaaft, I'm slightly optimistic of seeing either a Norfolk Nibbler or a Suffolk Slapper during tonight and tomorrow...fingers crossed!
  5. Methuselah
    Given that the models have had this pesky wee LP going into anywhere between the Firth of Forth and the Bay of Biscay, predicting its eventual path must be giving human forecasters on hell of a migraine? Hey, ho; that's the good old British weather for you!
  6. Methuselah
    Not bad, for what is (I believe) traditionally one the most mobile westerly spells: And finishing up with a retrogression signal...not to be take too seriously, though.
  7. Methuselah
    Oh dear me...the GFS has shifted the slider so far to the 'south' that its associated less-cold air crosses the Scottish Border...This model really does need a good talking to!
  8. Methuselah
    Has it all gone a little 'peary' during the night? If I peruse the models will I then have to opt for auto-defenestration?
  9. Methuselah
    You can't keep all of the people happy all of the time...How to navigate snowy weather 101.
  10. Methuselah
    And when there's any talk of 'white stuff' of course...as pure as the driven snow?
  11. Methuselah
    We don't do 'banter' here in the Sarfeast, scrat. As you should have learned yesterday, all forms of smut and/or double entendre (sp?) are strictly verboten!
  12. Methuselah
    Given all the models' uncertainty regarding the track of that chain of sliders, I think I'll be more than happy should the whole lot follow the official Steve Murr Predicted Path (SSPP?) and pass southeastwards into the southernmost part of the North Sea via Basildon... You never know, if the best comes to the best, the Family snow shovel, purchased in preparation for the snowfest that wasn't 2014, might even come out of the garage! GFS18Z here we come!
  13. Methuselah
    Looks as if North Sea oil rigs'll be in for a right old pasting?
  14. Methuselah
    Even though the details are, at this stage, largely irrelevant, it's looking more and more likely that the eponymous 'building blocks' might end up where we want them:
  15. Methuselah
    Looking good!
  16. Methuselah
    You did indeed!
  17. Methuselah
    It'll be interesting to see if the embedded trough beefs up showers running down the East coast, too...
  18. Methuselah
    Well, whatever the heck falls from the sky between Thursday and Monday, one thing seems certain (judging by what the models/UKmet are all saying): that the next two (possibly more) weeks will give us just about the best wintry synoptics we've seen in years... Best not get to hung-up on the day-to-day minutiae? Just take it as it comes. Or doesn't!
  19. Methuselah
    Just a wee drop of rain?
  20. Methuselah
    Marginality doesn't really bother me all that much, SF: it was ever thus... Even back in the halcyon days of the 1960s snow would often turn to rain and then back to snow again and then back to rain on an almost hourly basis. I think that, barring exceptional cases (1981-2, 2010 etc.) we know what to expect...I guess it's all contained within that irritation expression - rain, sleet or snow? PS: Google's now telling me that 'marginality' is in fact not a word - when it has a capital 'M'!
  21. Methuselah
    In fairness Stew, I could've posted almost any chart that has any 'cold' on it; it just so happens that that was the one I was viewing, at the time...? PS: Friday and Saturday are of course the exception.
  22. Methuselah
    Aye, AG...and to Saudi Arabia come Tuesday. Knowing our luck!
  23. Methuselah
    Looks like a whole week characterised by 'marginality' - which, lo-and-behold, is an actual word...So why 'zonailty' isn't is a bit of a mystery:
  24. Methuselah
    A potentially very mucky Sunday. Very marginal?
  25. Methuselah
    Looks promising...BUT not as promising as previous runs have done and is also 48 hours' later:
