  1. Great chart @tinybill plenty of ppn around, hopefully as we get nearer the time uppers become even more conductive for snow
  2. The rain here in canterbury is crazy had a few hefty showers with lighting earlier, haven't heard any thunder for the last hour, but heavy rain constantly with some intense downpours It's going to get very busy on here very soon, if what the people in the model thread are dicussing comes off ❄❄❄
  3. Looks like the high is further nw of the british isles slightly early on this run
  4. I've been reading along for the last month or so, I can't really add much to the technical discussion. However, I've been reading every winter since about 2010. In winter's past when reading along we have always needed everything to fall perfectly into place to get the sort of charts that are being shown atm in Fi, if it didn't fall perfectly into place we normally miss out all together with the gfs normally reverting to zonal mush. Seems at the moment though even if things don't look prefect eariler on we are still seeing the cold charts in fi. Which can only be a good thing. I maybe talking total rubbish, just my own opinion, don't really post much in here.
  5. Stopped snowing in Canterbury around 5 this evening and no showers since, Not much left now, can't complain it is march
  6. -1 with driving drizzle the type that gets your really wet lol It's miserable to say the leaat
  7. Yes, I saw an sat imagine posted eariler, where from sandwich to dover was green a few miles nw and west was white. Canterbury and areas sw of here did very well from the streamer that set up eariler in the week. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying this has been a memorable winter at all, to be honest, it's been horrible, cold but not cold enough for snow, grey, miserable, and what feels like a very long winter. In my previous posts I'm just talking about this Cold snap. Mother nature has shown us it's Still capable enough to bring deep cold to the uk, and just enough of a taste to keep the fires burning inside for a repeat of historic winter from the past, to keep me coming back searching (I must be mental) Anyway who said it's finished with us just yet,
  8. I'm thinking the same, I'm not at work tomorrow, so Iet the cold spell go out with a bang cause havoc. Ha ha
  9. I have to admit if the snow was of a wetter kind i think it would have been mayhem, the fact the snow has been so dry has help Just to add, I've been out driving this evening, just different places locally probably a 10 mile radius from home, with varying amounts of snow in such a small area, really shows how localised the amount of snow you get is
  10. Described perfectly, I didn't know how to, haha Little showers of the above in Canterbury on and off
  11. I don't agree with this at all, yes the media over hype this and probably interview many people and use the few that are nearly in tears, There are many people still around that shrug it off and just get on with it, there's more media coverage now and the media love drama. Can you imagine the news reader saying "well they said the beast from the east was coming, well it be honest it's been sh*t, so we're going to ignore it". Anyway, For me this has been a great little spell and will definitely stick with me. I didnt get a great deal of snow from it, probably 10cm but with thaw never really had more then 1 or 2 inches on the ground. The brutal feel of that wind last night was unbelievable, I have never experienced cold/windchill like it in this country at least, very memorable. The media again over hyped the sea freezing story, but to see the sea almost like a slush puppy in the surf is also quite remarkable. I'll probably go back to lerking in the shadows again now ha ha
  12. Just had a quick sled down tankerton slopes, I only had 1 go, great Fun, but the wind is brutal, it takes your breathe away. Like nothing I've ever experienced in the UK. -5 on the drive home, with cloud cover very impressive.
  13. I believe that convective shower aren't always pick up by the models, Got to -8 last night, sitting at -4 at the moment, herne bay
