  1. This winter tells me I need to move to Bluebell Hill or just anywhere with even slightly more elevation than where I live now! Snow thawing fairly quickly this morning though a drive just 200 feet up the hill has little to no thawing, a huge difference! Driving down the A2 during the heaviest snow with only 2 viable lanes was quite an experience, the 30mph everyone was doing was nice too, lots of people driving responsibly for a change!
  2. Just my iPhone XS, very good camera these days! Cannot wait to see the re-analysis of what went wrong/right tonight, nothing like this was expected
  3. Quick timelapse of my drive home 81F4D6E0-2BC8-4156-9821-F059D856A896.MOV
  4. This is insane!! Buses have been abandoned, cars sliding all over the place, 2-4cm at an estimate and that’s at sea level, more even just slightly higher up!!
  5. Not usually one to call "winter is over" but I feel like that's probably largely it, now. Very little support on any model for proper cold, EC46 has largely backed away from the idea though that model has been about as useful as a kettle in forecasting the weather this winter. Next week looks largely Atlantic dominated and those patterns can typically last a two weeks or more. It's been a fun one, an incredibly frustrating one but that's what keeps us coming back, I suppose!
  6. Well absolutely sod all on the ground here. Bring on a decent Easterly, what a rubbish winter this really has been so far
  7. Provided the heaviest stuff doesn't move from directly above me for the next 5 weeks, there's a pretty good chance I'll end up with a dusting! Higher ground perhaps more favoured than expected?
  8. Not settling here in lower Strood but upper Strood it is, quite surprised actually..
  9. Heavy snow but really struggling to settle, just 20/30m up the hill it's settling on most surfaces
  10. I think it's more that you say you're studying a degree in Meteorology and then fail to understand even the basic of meteorological concepts that's made people be a little critical of the claims..
  11. Far easier to see this watching the radar animation for the last couple of hours, it's a little hard to see flicking from frames on the radar. If you're worried about it all heading off for a holiday in France, run the animation
  12. Very small icy flakes blowing around in the wind here in Strood/Rochester but you have to look rather hard to see them* *Might not actually exist outside of my head
  13. Reports of snow in Sevenoaks/Maidstone on Twitter so the lighter stuff ahead of the main band is now reaching the ground. Isn't social media great?
  14. Promised the girlfriend an inch or two tonight, could be the second time I've failed to deliver on that..
  15. Guys.. relax. This isn't a marginal situation. Away from perhaps the extreme S coast anything falling from the sky will be 100% snow. If snow is setting on Cornwall beaches then I'm pretty sure those of us in the SE have absolutely nothing to worry about. EDIT: No idea how the chart Bluearmy posted ended up in my post.....
  16. Not sure why they would.. majority arrives after rush hour so impact/disruption will be rather limited
