Gah I have exams on monday. Part of me wants to have them postponed to get more revision done, whereas the other just wants them out the way. Can't it be a bit earlier so i don't have to go to work on friday or saturday?

Hmmm it is only the MetOffice that have that view, Netweather can't see it either.

Still lightly snowing in bristol, has been for about 10 minutes. It's quite nice to revise and look out my window every so often and see the snow. The sky was beautiful last night, It was orange and everywhere was so light that you wouldn't have though it was midnight. I wanted to play in it rather than go to bed!

I'm signing off, see you tommorrow morning in the winter wonderland!

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Ok so 5 mins ago there was literally nothing at all, just checked and it is completely white already. Totally loving it!

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

It's obviously completely bypassed filton then :s

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Still nothing here either Bristle Boy

Bristol, Filton

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

can see sod all in bristol but i don't have a lamp post, just a neighbours window but that is dim so I shall run downstairs and have a gander...

... nope nothing yet

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Nothing in Bristol, Filton at the moment, might try and do some revising... or not

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Snowing again, gone very dark. Small flakes but quite heavy.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

SteveB - A lot of the schools in cornwall have been closed today.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Had a couple of showers starting about 11 this morning, only light and lasting a few minutes. Then we got a heavy one at 12, and another one at 1 which both started settling bu it's stopped now.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

All tommorrow night probably.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

ITV weather just said snow for most of england except the far south east and far south west. I'm hoping that happens!

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Even though the MetO has upped their warnings to the south west they are still showing just sleet for tommorrow and sunny for the rest of the week in bristol. Grrrr. Metcheck and Netweather have an optimistic streak but BBC and MetO don't. Lets see who's right!

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

geeez im supposed to be revising but this has got me wayy to excited lol!

Same here! Model watching and seeing the banter on here is just far more amusing than biological pschology!

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Well, if the GFS does come off I shall be playing tennis at 8pm on Tuesday in some pretty cold temperatures and falling snow. Which would be interesting. Getting back home would be even more interesting!

Will that be outside? How will you not freeze?

Anyway consideing the forecast hasn't significantly changed or downgraded within the last 48 hours, its looking good which isn't what happened with the NYE forecast. Although it is really not conducive to my revision. It's so cold in my house that i have to wear 2 or 3 layers and my dressing gown, and sometimes glves but I really don't want to put the heating on because it would cost money and I'm a poor student.

It seems we have the precipitation down, we just need the cold. Just checked the MetO warning and they think the rain in the south may turn to snow overnight into wednesday. Although I bet as soon as I leave to go back to bristol it will snow here.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Temp here is down to -2.3C already! Its barely dark out there! Thats a drop of just over 4C in about 90mins.

If it stays clear I may revise my -6c low to a -8c.

Feels damn cold out to, just wandered up the road to get some pictures and my hands nearly froze!

That happened here, the temp dropped so fast.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

IT'S SNOWING that is all

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

it's getting darker with the clouds but nothing here yet (i'm in filton)

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

It's snowing AND laying in torpoint (home), and where am I? Still in Bristol, beacause I have to work. But I'm going back tommorrow. Hopefully I'll get some flakes tonight in Brizzle then it'll follow me home again.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Haven't seen anything today, though I haven't actually been out as I have a cold . I'm going down to Cornwall on Sunday so it would be nice to see a few flakes before I leave but we'll see. I also like how the MetO warning this morning was just confined to West Scotland on sunday and now it has changed to the whole of the western side of the country.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

hi Sabrina nice to see you back on like Smarty and Jay.

Reminds me of last February....Lets hope by Monday night we are sick of snow amounts,,,,lol.....NEVER

Someone remembers me? Yay. Hehe I've been stalking for a few weeks but haven't had anything postworthy, but potential snow always is. Still nothing here.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Didn't see the first flurry as i was in a lecture theatre, and can't see anything at the moment. Hoping it starts up again.
