London & The South East Regional Discussion - Part 6

[captain jack]

Jolly glad to hear that, old chap.

;-)

Not bad for a lad from Middlesbrough, now living it up in the snowy South East!

[Reefseeker]

I know this is late for this fast running thread, but I have to open one of my windows to confirm for sure it's snow - and not all the smears and dirt from our Windows :lol:

I pretend I'm not looking, and have the garden security light on to make sure the dog isn't doing anything amiss in the garden... he's not that keen to keep going out... so then I have to pretend I forgot to turn off the light(!)

Not just you, I have a fair few open

[Met4Cast]

Kaddy pretty much just said we could see up to 12 hours of snowfall producing 5-10cm of snow.

Love it! Gotta love lamp post watching for snow - something I discovered when I was 9 years old (January 1987) And again in Feb 1991 and since then every time snow is forecast in night time hours

Looking forward to chatting/bantering with you tomorrow evening - here's to some decent snowfall in our region

[Marie]

Right im off to bed got work tomorrow then no doubt will be up most of sat night hopefully watching snow fall past the lampost.Night all see you all tomorrow night ready for fun and frolics with lots of snow

[SlimJ]

Anyone remember Jan 1987? Got sent home from work early, parked the car and didn't move it for a week! Tried to walk up Titsey Hill from Oxted with the intent of poly bagging down the North Downs, but only got as far as the M25 and was in thigh deep drifts. Tatsfield, near Biggin Hill was cut off, the pub ran out of beer and a pregnant woman had to be airlifted to hospital. There was a photo of the bus stop on the ridge totally covered with only the top of the sign sticking out. Drifts must have been 8ft at least!

Yep, was only 8 then, dad has it on video from when he was working on the Isle of Sheppey doing car transporting, not seen the video for sometime but can remember some very deep drifts!!! Must dig the video out and get it on YouTube!

[BLUNT]

Be mayhem tomorrow once it starts to snow, i think i will take my laptop in the garden with my beer so i dont miss anything

[Bluebreezer54]

Listen......its getting closer !!

[Great Plum]

I look for snow with the lamp posts but as soon as its falling, I'm out in it if I can be!

Not the only one hun! By far!

[DAVEY1980]

Still predicted to be 2-4 inches on the forecast. Hardly worth the excitement. I guess it will be very light in general

[Robbie Garrett]

Benson currently on -9.6*C (Forecast was -5), London now almost on -3/-4 for tonight.

No. I'm the same. Thankfully, Mrs Loafer is as obsessed as me. We're known as Mr & Mrs McCaskill by our friends when the snow comes...mind you, they always ask our advice!

[Paul Sherman]

No Lamp-Posts down my little Street but 2 Pictures from 2nd December 2010! 37cm Level Snow (Thats over 1 Foot in old Money) and my poor fish pond buried somewhere under it all and yes the fish survived!

- Its under there somewhere

- Ruler Test

Lets hope for some of the below Charts - Last time was Dec17th 2009

That's exactly what he said, to be fair.

I think because this winter has been so mild, everyone is just pleased we might get snow!
