  1. The snowflakes are quite something different to any ive seen this winter they are so big in size perfect vertical drop no wind at all
  2. Seems to be heading bang smack over us too unexpected but it looks like it means business.. infact it's just started snowing again as I write
  3. I am ready and waiting for it Steve it's heading directly for me on the radar
  4. Thanks for all your time and effort into your postings about this cold snap Steve, I enjoy reading them and learning from your skills... much appreciated!
  5. Yes I have to agree it was obvious to even the untrained amateur eye that decent precipitation to produce the snowfall predicted was lacking and indeed where it was to come from? the radars were looking quite dry and the convection precipitation just fizzled out from the SE after 2100. I realise no one can control the weather so something scientific must have happened to cause this dry up meteorologically, i would be interested to read the NW experts thoughts and views on this especially after the ramping from the BBC/Skyweather and the news media. I suppose forewarned is forearmed but this was grossly over exaggerated!
  6. Not much better now in Sutton was -1.2 now +0.9c and rising
  7. So I suppose then Paul it would be fair to assume the snow projections for the next 48 hours were for the media to cover themselves in the public eye in case?
  8. I am astounded! Not sure Sutton does although in saying that a gritter has just gone by
  9. I dont understand it either Jan cant see where the precipitation is going to come from to deliver 10 to 20cm of snow grains but these guys obviously have a rabbit in a hat somewhere so lets wait and see tomorrow but somehow i don't think so
  10. Sorry CG dont really see where you are coming from there....
  11. LOL lets face it the Met Office ramps it up, the press get hold of it ramp it up even further, people go mad and strip the shelves in the supermarkets, we run out of salt and for what? Lets hope tomorrow it was just a bad dream....
  12. I think not cant see where its suddenly going to develop from not now... the radar returns just seem to fizzle out. Unless something unexpected happens I think we have to face it and enjoy what some of us have already got and look forward to next time........
  13. I have to agree and also with Mr Murrs post too. Unless something has gone drastically wrong with the weather. I remember the guy Joe B from Accuweather saying the UK was going to get the mother of all snowstorms last Sunday then having to backtrack a few days later, I sense the same happening with our own forecasters and yet Francis Wilson on Sky was forecasting this snow it like the BBC were earlier... unless of course they know something that isnt apparent to others. If so we will wake tomorrow to the forecasted centimetres nationwide however at the moment it seems the party is over for now... who's got the hoover! Im off down the pub!
  14. Being an older fossil, I think it's probably now 50/50 , the precipitation is so raggedy it appears convection reliant which is not always easy to pin down. We all know London has it's own climate in some ways so it's wait and see time but i wouldn't hold out a lot of hope unless something miraculous changes things.... the radars are not overflowing with reliable precipitation for the London area
