  1. Odd what’s happened here. I went to sleep after night shift this morning with a nice covering of snow everywhere. I knew the the forecast was for a warm sector and advertised temps. of 7 degrees, so expected wet/green when I awoke. There is still snow on the grass and nearby hills, and my road has a thick layer of black ice now, literally gleaming like a bottle. There’s no way it’s been 7 degrees or anywhere near it here today.
  2. More organised band of showers heading into the Northwest as we speak. Maybe add to the nice seasonal covering from overnight....
  3. At least Scandinavia is almost all snow covered now. It will be interesting to see Europe and British Isles in particular for 2 weeks time if this spell incoming hits the bullseye.
  4. Yes a perfect Greeny high on that chart. Anyone going to venture into saying this is now nailed on?
  5. According to contacts I have in Iceland it was never there anyway. They say there is some ice in the sea but the pieces are separated by miles of seawater so it’s not continuous or solid or anything like what we thought might be happening. Hope this helps
  6. Interesting piece on this topic Sea ice around Iceland | On sea ice | Icelandic Meteorological office EN.VEDUR.IS
  7. According to the local Icelandic meteorological service the ice pack is still 40 nautical miles from that NW Snafaelles peninsula but interesting none the less. The o s in the map are observed bergs of ice rather the main ice pack.
  8. I remember discussing this possibility with others in last years thread. From recollection it only happens a few times a century!
  9. Maybe we should start a “Hunt for Mild” thread in October next year. We’re clearly doing it wrong.
  10. Can we ever truly “expect” snow in the British Isles. Apart from The highlands of Scotland it never really seems to be a done deal. Even when it is forecast, I expect to be one of the places that misses it, and don’t believe it until I see it. Quite a lot of snow at times in this location but still couldn’t say I ever really “expect” it lol
  11. What moment? What expression MIA? My memory for 2010 Hadley me down on this
  12. Bit of a “dad” joke of mine to say to the kids on 1st October “Has anybody woke Green Day up yet?”
