  1. I was that busy watching your lot rip Chelski a new one I didn’t even realise rain for on its way or that it could be sleety. that said though it felt pretty cold out walking this afternoon
  2. Dare I say, at least it will be mild or did you overdo the spices
  3. Hopefully we’ll be doing the same at teatime for the football.
  4. It looks like there is plenty of firewood blocking roads around here this morning for anyone with a chainsaw and a truck. I just hope that my fence panels aren’t adding to it.
  5. Yeah I noticed the noise of the drizzle on the conservatory roof, thought it sounded like the torrential type
  6. My last fiver would go on rain, even up here although we live in hope and surely a dozen downgrades must equal 1 upgrade.
  7. Not been outside since I came home from the football but it’s been cold all day and most of our snow cover has remained. just a shame it’s on its way tomorrow.
  8. Beautiful winters morning here, nothing much else to say.
  9. So long as it’s a decent brand, non of this buy one get ten free stuff oh and I need some onions
  10. Yeah just been out in the car and it’s snowing here.
  11. Still some pretty beefy showers crossing Yorkshire from the North Sea but only time will tell if they have enough left in them to get over to our side. not a bad effort earlier this morning though and even though the streamer moved away from here soon after light it did give another inch or so top up along with the usual early morning chaos on the local roads.
  12. BBC forecast showed snow showers coming in from the North Sea throughout the day so plenty of opportunity for parts of the region to see something.
  13. Couldn’t resist looking at the radar and that’s a decent streamer coming across the Pennines. its pretty narrow though and although i’m getting lucky at the moment, a movement of only 10 miles either way would take me out of the firing line. still it’s the third day with snow falling this week and after the dire first half of the winter when I couldn’t see us getting anything at all, it hasn’t turned out that bad.
  14. Yep, surprised to see the velux window in the bathroom covered again this morning. i haven’t looked at the radar but wasn’t expecting anything overnight so whatever we end up with is a nice surprise
  15. It was snowing a bit when I left work at 5pm but it didn’t do much. what we are having now is more like damp blowing fog than drizzle but you can feel the damp from it.
  16. Windy, foggy and damp outside to the point where you can see what looks like rain blowing about. only thing is with it already being -3c I can see there being some serious ice on the cars and slippy roads in the morning. meanwhile as i’ve got drizzle at 1000ft, sea level in Cornwall gets buried in snow.
  17. All we need now then is some fresh new snow for our thread. tomorrow and Friday are looking unlikely so it’s all eyes on Sunday which may or may not deliver
  18. My parents always said that the snowstorm in 1940 possibly January but not sure was heavier here than anything in either 47 or 63. a hell of a statement to make given the mythical like status those 2 have reached but aparantly the level snow was over 3 feet deep. big question is would it have warranted a Met O amber warning or being up here, would a yellow have been enough
  19. They seem to be hitting the Pennines and then turning south. obviously don’t fancy going to Yorkshire in the dark
  20. It seems to happen pretty well every year in much the same way that the north Midlands are often the northern limit of hot weather in summer
  21. No that’s the one I was talking about. the most easterly of the showers was right above Bacup so about 7 miles north of Rochdale. it wouldn’t take much of a change in direction to put Greater Manchester in the firing line and take the Rossendale Valley out of it.
  22. From an IMBY point of view I like the look of that line of showers coming in between the IOM and Walney Island. only problem is that the first one which the radar showed directly above me ended up giving me nothing but I live in hope
