  1. I'd be very shocked if that was true? 30-40cm of snow was some of the higher totals received in the more favoured areas for snow during the February cold spell. The most that was seen in the North West was just a few inches I think.
  2. You had 1 foot of snow in Runcorn last winter?!
  3. I think the most striking thing though is the continuation of the strong southerly jet, much further south than we are used to during most recent winters.
  4. Worth noting that the Op run was one of the milder runs later on, with the parallel run having plenty of support. The mean is still around the -5 mark all the way through. In this type of setup I don't think the precipitation charts are of too much use. Clearly Eastern areas will do well, but many place inland are likely to see some snow. Risk drops as you move West obviously.
  5. Like last winter you are repeating this kind of talk over and over again when in reality the phrase 'even larger teapot' means very little. As you say though teleconnections support this cold spell and so do the model this evening.
  6. I don't think comments of 5-10cm being laughable are helping. I think 10cm is quite significant for these times, 15cm would be a good fall for any decade. I think a lot of older people see the past with 'snow goggles' I'm pretty sure back then 10-15cm would have got them looking out the window and not staying indoors thinking "that's a nice dusting of snow" B)
  7. Yeh, wish i was in school, unfortunately I'm in work! was offered Thursday off but said nah, because I didn't honestly think it would be snowing tomorrow. I'm gonna set my snowboard up tonight though and then maybe go somewhere tomorrow eve if I get chance
  8. Brilliant, I can't actually believe it. Is it true? How can you close a school before the snow has even arrived?
  9. I thought the record was 19.5*C set in 1983? Maybe I'm wrong though
  10. Thanks for the video! A very strange accent indeed. I work with quite a few French Canadians this winter and I can definately hear a hint of that! :blush:
