  1. After nothing but rain on and off today Ive come to the conclusion that the only white stuff Im going to see is the inside of the toilet when im being sick.
  2. NAE 00z showing substantial snow by 1800. GFS precip says no. During tha night here it clouded over and the temp lifted to -4.1 now it has cleared over again and it is -4.9
  3. -0.9c falling very quickly. Hoping we see a couple of hours of snow tomorrow.
  4. This event has Dec 2010 written all over it for me. I'll be able to see the clouds, smell the snow but it will be 20-30 miles away.
  5. Sticking my head over the parapet for the first time in this thread so please be gentle. I've noticed before that charts from previous years have been posted as a comparison to a suggested evolution, but nothing in this current setup. Is part of the model programming based on historical data and so this could be why they are struggling with the current situation?
  6. whale oil beef, its turned back to snow and its heavy man.
  7. Rain here now. Snow disappearing very quickly. Breakdown guy turned up to get into gritter. Decided to use all his training and adopt a tecnical approach. Tried to crowbar door open but failed. Asked to borrow wire coathanger to break in which was successful. I wonder what tools he had in his van......
  8. A little bit of sleety stuff now. I wonder how long a gritter can sit with the engine idling before it runs out of fuel.......
  9. Stopped completely now, thawing rapidly. But gone VERY dark.....
  10. Still coming down. Someone turned up to try and get into the gritter stuck outside, but he brought the wrong key.
  11. A guy just came in my shop and left his vehicle running outside. Unfortunately the vehicle has locked itself and he cant get back in. The amusing part is that the vehicle is the scourge of snowlovers - A GRITTER. hahahahahahaha.
  12. Very heavy snow restarted. I'm liking the track of the streamers.
  13. Snow stopped now. Clearing over. I reckon a quick melt is on the cards too. Fun while it lasted.
  14. We are whited out here, virtually 1" down now and still bucketing down.
  15. Its been hammering down here now for 20 mins or so, put down over 1 1/2 cms so far. Very unexpected.
  16. Indeed CC, any excitement will be tempered by the harsh reality of history. I shal still watch closely in hope.
  17. I could be right on the edge of this, bieng 20 miles south of you. After the waste of space that was last winter, it would be a novelty.
  18. I have to join as I live in the Cheshire Gap. It's a gap between wintry precipitation.
  19. You've got to laugh at the way the front is splitting to avoid where I live.
