[dogs32]

Well I cant be greedy I have had 3 helpings now.....It would be plain greed if I get a fourth...

I will blow some down to Kaz in the tropics in Devon

Jay well, what can I say you wont a 9 th...lol

BTW.....we still have snow here with the roofs partly covered and a few inches over my lawn....

Still a nice thick covering.

The main roads are clear but the side roads are still full of Ice and bits of snow left over...

I feel we could do with a top up.

[kaz]

I'm not bothered if it snows or not to be honest. If it does then i'm happy,

i fell around laughing when read this from our Jay.... Talk about reverse psychology.. Jay the day your not worried about snow i will eat my hat (if i had one) thanks for making me laugh :lol: oh dogs thank you for wanting to share your snow... you have had are grit and salt so suppose its only fair

Last photo to be shown, unless we get more over the coming week.

this was taken today, and shows the effect of shade, with plenty of snow on the grass but less on the roads, this also shows he snow on the background hills.

from another thread

BBC News 24 just Forcast HEAVY RAIN MONDAY NIGHT in the south east and Heavy snow central uk

[Snowyowl9]

GFS shows a possible blizzard in the making all there wants is an east/NE-ly 30mph wind or above and heavy drifting snow.

:lol:

This gave 7 inches blizzards and huge drifts,looks very similar yet upper air was marginal in november 1996.

[Jayfromcardiff]

Oh, I know.. it's just I love false hope (:

[Barb]

If the 18z GFS comes off, I'll get ~25cm of snow with a raging wind, oh my. Famous last words though.

[Jayfromcardiff]

We will just see tomorrow if it's still the same, looking great at the moment. I wouldn't expect any major change, well i hope not.

That is a hell of a lot of ppn. If it is rain, which it probably will be, onto some snow covered ground, could be some nasty flooding.

Or 30cm+ of snow, guess which one i would like...

[smarty81]

BBC saying we will miss the snow on Monday...Only to the North of us....

Didn't mention Mon/Tues snow...But Isabel OF sky did this morning which ties into the Met office

so another interesting day come Monday for us lot :wacko:

Well It looks like the specifics have changed since this afternoon going by the healthy banter on the snow watch thread tonight It certainly is one to watch

I can feel another all nighter coming on monday night :wacko:

[Snowyowl9]

Temps have dropped now -1.8c thought the cloud wasn`t going to clear until I saw XC.

Snow should be nice and crunchy tomorrow and with hardly any sun less thawing as temps will be lower to todays,then more snow or sleet.

[J10]

Those precipitation charts show the cumulative rainfall (or snowfall) for the period mentioned, so that would be the total rainfall in he next 72 hours.

[Iceberg]

People in the SW should be very very pleased with the latest Meto update. !!

[dogs32]

the rain turning to snow further South on radar....

snowing in Wales in parts...and as far south as the Bristol opening

Edited February 8, 2009 by dogs32

[impster]

just got up. Blanket of snow - about three quarter of an inch here in Machynlleth.

[snowking]

Certainly worth watching this situation this morning, NMM suggesting dews here at the moment sould be around 0c, where as, in fact, they are still holding at -2c..IF the precip makes it this far then certainly worth keeping an eye on dews for the next few hours - by 10am they should be 1c here

And with thickness values looking satisfactory until mid afternoon some suprise snowfall could be on the way for some in the west

SK

[loadsa]

Well its snowing here only small stuff but is settling. Nothing from the met office forcasted. Supposed to be dry with a shower this afternoon!!!
