no let up whatsoever. must be the Sweet Spot as they say.

i normally bin their warnings,too far wide of the mark for here.

2.5" on the tape now and still coming down.

it is and we are. best flat calm show as seen in years.

Amazing show here at present.them's big Mamma flakes. no drop in temp or DP so far.

about the same here still snowing,but madly warm and flat calm outside.winter wonderland indeed.

some of them earlier flakes were beautiful. 0'2c,dp -1c and a trend of -1.1c hr.

complete heavy covering here and the leccy is flickering now.

What time is it due Gavin?

temps holding snow still coming down,but it's marginal to say the least.need the temps to start dropping or it's all gone.

try up here,you live in the tropics compared to this location.still going flat out a good inch accumulated and looking at the radar the heavier precip will turn to snow as it rolls in. proper snow this, lovely outside with a ground temp of 0.2c and flat calm.

it's 1c warmer to turning to rain here aswell.but at the mo fantastic snowfall never mind for March.temp down to 0'c from 7c and falling.

Best 2 hr snowfall iv'e seen in years.gritters out but the main roads have 2cm of slushy snow all over them.forget the grit, get the blade down and push this stuff intp the verge.

when did we get the snow this time last year?it came after i planted my onions out i remember.

Yellow Warning of Snow17 Mar 2013, 21:00Issued at - 17 Mar 2013, 11:42 Valid from - 17 Mar 2013, 21:00 Valid to - 18 Mar 2013, 10:00 Showery outbreaks of rain and sleet with hill snow, will turn increasingly back to snow on Sunday night and the first part of Monday, particularly over hills across Northern England and parts of Scotland. At lower levels, many places will probably see little or no snow, but a few areas could catch 1 to 4 cm. Above about 250 metres, such amounts will be more likely, with a few places seeing between 4 and 10 cm of snowfall. Ice will be an additional hazard where skies clear later in the night. The public should be aware of these wintry hazards while traveling later on Sunday, and especially around the Monday morning peak travel times.

Lets just get it all out of the way now.better now than a visit mid-late May.

That would be great as it's normally last week of April into May here.

it changes with every output. the more disagreement between models the further out FI becomes. forget about snow look for the right conditions to begin with.

Mushy i like reading your posts,but any chance we can lay off the Armageddon scenarios for the flora and fauna.you as well as me know that's not how things would pan out even with the most severe March weather on record. the balance will always be regained as it has long before we arrived. weather does what weather does. we have thousands of lambs due 19th onwards and not worried in the least.prepared yes! but not worried regards a cataclysmic event regards all things living outdoors.

we still get frosts into May here,nothing set away yet apart from buckets of spuds in the GH.

speaking of waffle

This time last year i was planting out 1100 onion sets in lovely sunshine,today the same bed is covered in patchy snow.

just brought the dogs back in.that is the coldest I've felt all winter says -8c windchill here on the station,was bliddy colder than that i'm sure. Mick go to your profile page and simply pop ya location in.it will come up under your name when you post.

into your profile i meant lol.

kickin in again here.
