Oh I've been out at stupid times in slippers to see what's falling Sorry for off-topic but: How does the NW Radar determine whether PPN is Snow/Sleet ? Does it just look at the forecasted conditions and weather station temp + dew? Would like to know

Sunday/Monday could be quite well if our dreams come true? 12z

Thanks for the input Jackone, look forward to hearing more in good time. Only time will tell the story, so let's look forward to what's to come but not get our hopes up to much

None for you this evening for sure... Not sure about the outlook... some wintry showers I suppose later on in the week.

4.7

Thanks mate

Thanks for the replies. Nick, so far it's been quite interesting.... but we'll see :lol:

So we've been given a question in Geography about El Nino. I'm trying to find articles on the internet with more info but not much use. I was wondering if anyone could give me some extra info.... the question is: Give arguments to describe why an El Nino can at the same time cause a drought and forest fires in Indonesia and heavy flooding in California? Any help much appreciated thanks.

it eased off early but now picked up here. I can confirm the last 30 minutes of a strike every 2 minutes

Jesus, looking at the radar some more stuff heading for me, may not be huge but the only problem I have is power cuts! Where is the big beast over the Channel expected to affect?

Those are some great pictures! What's the big lights on the left of some pics? Port Talbot Works? I can't believe some people are just sitting out in this (as seen in one of you pics)

Calmed here now after regular flashes all the time... only one got close and that cut the power... not happy about that! but still a good show, only needed some popcorn and it would have been better than the Cinema! Please don't say the big one North France will hit Wales?

really picking up now, so awesome

Finally started here again

if Cardiff got a battering then it's heading here hopefully... Swansea in for it next?

NW detection back up to 17 per min now... Nothing here now it's dead compared to early. Waiting for another storm to hopefully hit me very soon

2 strikes per minutes according to NW Detector Not very good compared to early

Could showers just pop up from anywhere like this bulk over Wales sort of did over South West England?

Sexy rumbles here, sweet. Not seen lightning yet but gonna stare out the window now! Is it worth keeping appliances on during a storm? Worth the risk?

Tipping down with Snow again. After the roads getting some grit it's started to accumulate on the roads again. (mainly centre and sides)

It's okay up here in Pontyates, roads are clear now. It did start to stick on roads a bit, still a good dusting/covering here. It get's better more inland, Bancffosfelen is lovely! A lot of laying snow up there, one of the highest areas in Gwendraeth Valley I think so higher the more accumulation around here. EDIT: Heavy snow again in a small shower.

Agh lovely Kidwelly, I'm afraid they might just clip you at the best. Some light stuff for you. Shame your down there. Good luck.

What's your location in Carmarthenshire? Although some heavier bits and bobs appear over the East now maybe some more heavier and organised showers will come down our way? You never know.

The initial moderate shower which gave me a good dusting (including main roads initially but they seem okay now) died out over the Gower. Hope some last to get to you! I'm happy with these nice showers currently. --

Yep, I'm about 10 miles or something from there. We got showers coming in heading SE. Currently snowing again. Lovely here.
