[Cold Spell General Discussion]

Looking at the NetWeather Radar it was very localised, but very slow moving! I have to go out now, but i will supply you with a few snowy pictures this evening!

Whoa, lucky you. I can see it on the radar.

I would put a picture on if i knew how! All stopped now, just hoping for some very low overnight lows now!

I can't believe it! Had a heavy snow shower here for the last 2 hours! I havn't posted before because ive een out in it! I went aout with my ruler and measured 6cm! Maximum of 2C but the snow has dropped it down to 0.1C now, cars sliping all over the place, had to help pull the local bus to Ipswich up the hill with the tractor! Brilliant!

This "cold spell" seems to have no oomph to it at all.There is absolutely nothing here and what sleet/snow there has been has beeen very wet. I wouldnt get you hopes up too much folks.

Remember though that SSTs are still above average, around 7C around Shetland. With it being such a small land mass the sea will have a great affect in keeping the temperatures up. What was the lowest temperature you got last night?

BBC is showing heavy snow for me on Thursday and Friday, and more on saturday with maximum temps of 0-1C!! Let's hope so!

Hi everyone

To be honest this event is going to be hanging in the balance until it actually happens. The charts have little experience of this kind of event, so you can't expect them to be spot on at all, and they are unlikely to agree either, right up until the time, it's a guessing game for all of us, including the super computers!
