London and South East Regional Discussion - 20th January 2013 - 06z onwards

[matt brid]

Very Light snow been falling in Harrow since 08.40 ... Given 1cm. Temperature rising - now +1.9c.

[sarah7meme]

I say easily 4cm extra here

[anything-but]

Someone`s pranged their brand new Audi by the roundabout on the gravesend road over the bypass.....whoops!

Light snow coming down nicely now here.

[TheGate]

-1.5c and much bigger flakes, coming down heavier too

[Charltonkerry]

Grass now totally covered, probably a 6 on the murrometer scale.

Temp risen to -0.9

Dew point -1.8

[Kent Blizzard]

Are you up in the woods? I have 3cm at the moment.

Nope but top of the Valley, my mate down on the lower road only got about 3cm so presume you down low too?

I imagine Lordswood doing well too

[PrettyYellow]

So I just woke up now and looked outside and BAM! It's snowing and the roads are covered again and nothing is melting. Wow. Small flakes here...I wonder when it started snowing again.

[keke]

Smaller snow flakes? No problem. I spend a few weeks in central Finland each winter, these smaller flakes are the norm. If anything it's proof of colder weather. Very rare to get huge snow flakes over there unless its around zero (temp is around -18 in the daytime at present - paradise!).

[AtlanticFlamethrower]

Temperature is going to enter marginal territory during the midday.

So although I expect snow to fall from the sky, temperature and dew points low enough, I would expect an ongoing thaw especially in urban areas.

I'm expecting the depth to not rise as much as the PPN one might expect would suggest.

[Jo S]

**NB* RE.SNOW DEPTH CUP.

I nearly forgot, I was going to mention what happens if any of you have the same amount as your opponent.

If you're on zilch, nada, you will have a replay during the next snow event. If you have a score draw, a penalty shoot-out will result and only I will know the result, probably, if you put your height above sea-level in your profile or I'll have to ask you your postcodes, now you dont want me to do that do you!

IN OTHER WORDS, IF YOU HAVE BOTH RECORDED THE SAME AMOUNT, EXCEPT 0-0, THE MEMBER WITH THE LOCATION WITH THE LOWEST ALTITUDE, SHALL BE DEEMED THE WINNER.

If by some strange quirk your locations are at the same height, the emergency Pools Panel (Snow Panel), showing my age now, will be brought in to adjudicate on the result (Paul Sherman, Steve Murr and Chionomaniac), using polystyrene balls, bifurcated jetstreams and SSWs! I've not been drinking either!

Cheers,

Tom

P.S. Did someone mention snow tomorrow evening? Thats any replays sorted out then! Hopefully wont be any 0-0 draws

and we can move onto next round. Remember winners in this round, will be playing winners of next match in list!

At work but not much work to do (Bookmakers), racing abandoned at Kempton Park (Hampton Court way).

Still taking bets on Chelsea/Arsenal and Spurs/Man.Utd. I've got to stay and put Spurs/Utd result in computer for settlement

Last day of account today and accounts go out tomorrow!

Mind you, if that match gets abandoned, I can go home after Chelsea/Arsenal, come on you North London snow!

Cheers,

Tom.

I have an ideas,im gunna dig a deep hole and fill it up with snow,then measure it but dont anyone

Ha ha I have 3cm from this morning's snow........I'm back in the game!

[Planet Stow]

Temp has risen to +0.4 from -0.6 which was at 9am

[Weathizard]

Temperature is going to enter marginal territory during the midday.

So although I expect snow to fall from the sky, temperature and dew points low enough, I would expect an ongoing thaw especially in urban areas.

I'm expecting the depth to not rise as much as the PPN one might expect would suggest.

I don't really understand why it would be marginal? Temps here on the south coast aren't even above zero and are not progged to be all day, dew points are low enough all over our region as are the uppers.

[matt brid]

+2.0c now in Harrow lol

[Jo S]

It's like a snizzle blizzard

I agree.really deep, persistent snizzle,can you get snowed in by snizzle,or if you went for a walk and died in snizzle,that wouldnt be very dramatic on the death certificate,JO.S died by snizzle Edited January 20, 2013 by Jo S

[NO LONGER POSTING]

heavier stuff right over London hitting west London in about 15 mins

[Kent Blizzard]

Lots more to come http://www.meteoradar.co.uk/

Look at the Euro Radar http://www.meteox.co.uk/h.aspx?r=&jaar=-3&soort=loop1uur

Edited January 20, 2013 by Kent Blizzard

[Redmc13]

I'm thinking a walk to the pub is in order

[Heretic]

It's getting a little heavier now. So many snowflakes, but just so small!

[danm]

+2.0c now in Harrow lol

Not sure if youre just a troll or you have a faulty thermometer. It's sub zero across the region at the moment.
