  1. Still snowing here in Ashby de la Zouch and has been all morning; snow here is a lot worse than at Hinckley.
  2. Interested to know what will happen on Tuesday - BBC show it stalling just east of Wales, yet the GFS shows it pptn crossing the country?
  3. Can't believe the state of the roads, none of them on my drive to work have been gritted and they're main A roads... took 1 and half hours to do 18 miles and it's snowing again!
  4. It's been snowing here for an hour or so and it's settling on the cars/road, etc. Hope some more pptn comes along as this band seems to be ending now, if it kept this up throughout the night I'd have another few cm.
  5. We need a good fall of rain to clear the salt off the roads so they can dry and I can drive in a 'spirited' manner again
  6. Well, I've just purchased the NW radar and I must say... I'm very impressed! With the radar not the pptn
  7. I'm not going to write this event off just yet - didn't the GFS show the heavier pptn to appear over the Midlands around midnight and stay there until 6am tomorrow?
  8. I want a hot summer so all the "Global Warming" followers have something to talk about again Or because I love sitting outside with a nice bottle of lager when it's 30c and sunny... yeah, that's it
  9. Well, the snow is that light here it's actually melting the snow we currently have; nothing left on any of the roads or pavements and it's not vanishing from the grass! If it carries on at this rate then there'll be nothing left... it's just too light and the radar isn't showing anything significant!
  10. Any reason why it's been snowing for 2 hours yet the radar says nowhere has anything?
  11. Another cm of snow this morning and it's snowing again now! Never known so much snow Notice the MetO have put their weather warning back on for tomorrow!
  12. Having a bit of snow here now, seems to be easily sticking too - as for the grit situation; we had an email sent around at work today to say that the carpark and road outside (which is a hill) won't be gritted from now on due to restrictions on the supply... that's me not able to get to work then as I won't get up that hill with snow on it!
  13. The February event was brilliant :wacko: If I remember correctly we had snow on the Tuesday (and I made it in to work) but we had even more on the Thursday/Friday (and I never made it in to work). What are the comparisons like on the 500hPa charts Andy? I'm being too lazy to look.
  14. The 06z GFS is still showing a significant amount of pptn pushing in to the Midlands, so, what's made the MetO remove their weather warnings?
  15. Personally I'd have preferred the snow this weekend and then a return to 'normal' weather rather than hanging on to the cold which just means whatever we have at the moment is just looking shabby I don't like the black snow we have at the side of the roads
  16. Looks like they don't expect the front to push as far North as previously thought for this Sunday/Monday.
  17. That is a trough but I don't think it's the one which is expected to give showers through Northern England/Midlands.
  18. The 'Surface pressure charts' on the UKMO website show a trough through the Midlands for midnight tonight, guessing this is why they suspect showers overnight as they'll form along the trough?
  19. That's a great satellite image - can we get any of the whole of Europe?
  20. Snowing here in Ashby De La Zouch - not really heavy enough to make a difference and seems to be brightening up now!
  21. Doesn't look like those showers are pushing too far inland at the moment; think I'll focus on the setup for Sunday. Is it just me or does it look very borderline at the moment? Although the 850 temps are showing as -10c, the 528 DAM line is pushed to our west - or doesn't the 528 DAM line make much difference with the 850 temps at -10c?
  22. Temperature has fallen rapidly here, now -6.1c, nearly at my lowest recorded temperature this winter which was -6.5c
  23. -4.7c here, do wish the local roads would clear as it's going to be a pain getting to work tomorrow but no chance of that!
  24. I demand they find some more! I pay my council tax!
  25. Starting to snow here again - I'm working from home today as I can't get up the hill to get out of my village. I hope they come through with the gritters to at least clear some of the lesser used roads else I'm never going to get out of the house!
