EDIT: Met Office keeping us waiting for the Server Weather Warning Update... who's broken it?

[South West Of England Regional Discussion Thread]

I don't think anyone knows! Lol.... It's going to get cold, that's all I know. Hard frosts and possible an Armageddon snow fest at the weekend, but it's far too early to call

LOL @ "Armageddon snow'fest".... lets hope its here for friday afternoon, Saturday, Sunday and all gone on Monday.. that would be perfect..

Not expecting anything here now, but going down to Taunton early tomorrow morning so hoping I might see something down that way still!

Just outside Taunton here... nothing happening here yet.. thats yet!

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Radar @03:20 A lot of light stuff.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Here's the 19.35 Radar. need it to pep'up a bit more...

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Appears to intensify a little as its coming across

Yes, agree. but needs to be alittle more to the East..

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Radar 19.25. Some thing def developing over Deb(v)on way

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

You know, I was thinking about steak and chips for tonight myself! Shame we haven't got enough room in the freezer to keep chips and peas though. Making to do with a nice Creamy Mushroom Chicken Tonight sauce to go with, er, chicken.

And there's already a cooking thread! You'll have to look for it, called Cooking With Attitude, was in the Lounge Section.

Oh and it's snowing lightly here. In Nottingham. I'm only here because I miss the South West when I'm up here at uni.

I've got the essential Pot Noodles in for the late nite radar watching, nothing like a pot noodle in the early hours...mmmm

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Tuesday look's interesting,will the warmth win the battle against the cold..

If not maybe lot's of snow

Here's the Tuesday battle I posted earlier:

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

I'm sure it did show a hint of snow, but the PPN rate (in shaded of white/grey) can be tricky to show on the graphics; i.e. trying to highlight more bothersome snow versus the generally light falls we expect here.

It's too easy for us to overdo the graphics and suggest whiteout conditions (and subsequently face further allegations from the S Glos person of ramping )

However, we've yet to see the next NAE so I'm not eager to get cornered on the potential for some districts.... yet.

.....yet...... ohh i love the anticipation (ohh and the precipitation too..)

18.30 Radar Image:

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

mmmm

Although I'm rustling up a mean coq au vin tonight... well its being rustled now.

Waiting for the Indian to be delivered.... (and no he's not going to do a snow dance for me..), Madras, Rice and Nana + a Teka Masala...

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

steak and chips ready, b bk ltr, hopefully a bit more to see on the radar for our area by then

I'll watch your steak if you wanna keep watching the radar...mmmmmmm steak.

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Ok, here's Tuesdays battle of the fronts (battle of the Atlantic)..... any thoughts anyone?

[South West England Cold Spell Discussion]

Looking like a possabiltiy of the cold breaking down and the Atlantic winning out then on Tue/Weds so Rain Rain rain Rain....and back to work!...or am I wrong?
