Saint coolio

Is that the ones from IKEA?

What does it mean when you see a green meteor? The emerald hue of a green shooting star is believed to carry mystical significance. Legend has it that this celestial marvel is an omen, a harbinger of good fortune and prosperity. When luck graces your path in the form of a green shooting star, seize the moment, for destiny has aligned the cosmos in your favor. --- (If you see two, you've had it).

the weather and me the day after I stopped looking for snow in the model thread: #ifyouknowyouknow1989

must be a slow weather day

man this thread has gone to the dogs

#flakenews

Nice feeling going off to bed confident of waking up to a foot of snow

Haha, more or less. I forgot to mention the wifi doesn’t work either.

Greetings from the Polar Express (aka the 19:05 from Waterloo to Winchester … with no freaking heating) Couldn’t make it up. it’s filthy too. and late. and expensive.

Not a reliable source, but south western trains has an alert up for snow on the network Tuesday and Wednesday- disruption possible / check your journey

Get yer spade and sledge out. It’s on.

Yeh I reckon we’ll get snow this week. After some cold rain oop north on Tuesday - that little feature’s going to drag our snow-maker a bit further north and we’re in business.

CEO of my main client is in buffalo NY. He just messaged me about the weather there - 65mph gusts and snow showers that could deliver anything up to 3 feet of snow. (Could also be zero — depends on the wind direction off lake eerie, which is not frozen this year and generating loads of lake effect snow). anyway he said if you want a ring side view, the NFL playoff is tomorrow and will go ahead almost no matter what. Probably on sky here and some online options. He’s going with his 10 year old, the fool.

Amazing! Every state has weather warning! Imagine that being the entirety of Europe!

Be lucky to get a flight into Chicago atm though. The Midwest storm now is insane with record setting blizzards to the north and severe thunderstorms on the SE side. Surprised it’s not in the news more.

It’s -8 in Oslo and snow forecast. Return flights about £40. If you’re that desperate for winter, off you pop.

That model thread is just hilarious. It’s like some sort of groupthink experiment with bonus points for hyperbolic comparisons and pointless oneupmanship. Read a bunch of posts about the output being “bad“ and naturally assumed that meant cold and heavy snow, but of course it means the opposite. In winter. But in summer, bad means cold and rain. Obviously. anyway I know next to nothing about forecasting but I watched the metoffice outlook, and a picture provides a thousand answers If the question is: “what’s going to stop the snowy spell?”:

The way that's written looks like a 5 year old got hold of chat GPT

Thought we actually had some snow settled on top of the bins, but it turned out to be a warning letter from the council after I put some bottles in the recycling when I was drunk over new year

I wonder if there’s a world record for the lightest possible snow that actually counts as snow. if so, we’d be in with a shout here in the test valley with our 1 flake per 5 minutes blizzard

*dusts off sledge*

Lol, better than yesterday?!

Just did round trip romsey to Winchester- what a mess the roads are in. Floods, branches, half trees. going to be a hell of a shock to some people who went off to work this morning before the warnings

Chances are we’ll still have our decorations up in April

A late merry Christmas from me to everyone here!
