Looking forward to heavy snow on Sunday night and then showers on Monday

[Southender]

Hello again everyone. So, whats happening over the next few days?...Anything remotely exciting or is this average winter all but over?

[saint]

Looks more like snow than rain out there at the moment.

Hello again everyone. So, whats happening over the next few days?...Anything remotely exciting or is this average winter all but over?

Could you ask a harder question than that? who knows mate!

[Mark Neal.]

Hi,

Do you......

1. Stare so hard into the garden sometimes that you start to see dots in front of your eyes and convince yourself it's snowing?
   
2. Whoop with delight when a white feather floats down and catches your eye, only to then pretend that you were whooping aboout something else entirely as it clearly wasn't a snowflake?
   
3. Flick from channel to channel watching the weather and only believe the one suggesting snow for your area?
   
4. Stay up to silly hours (probably drinking) watching the snow fall in the light of a lamp post, blatantly refusing to go to bed for fear of missing one flake?
   
5. Peep out of the curtains when snow is forecast but cover up your obsession to family and friends by making ridiculous excuses as to why you need to take more rubbish out/check the car/pop to the neighbours house etc?
   
6. Head over to the model thread and ignore all of the negative posts but get excited about all the snowmaggeddon ones?
   
7. Have more than one weather app on your mobile phone?
   
8. Get more than just a little bit excited when anyone mentions pink blobs?
   
9. Find yourself in the garden measuring snowfall and taking an unprecedented amount of pictures when it does settle?
   

If you can answer yes to any of these, you will find a strong family of like-minded people in here

I fit all of them!

Awake again after 2 weeks .

Did some one say Pink Blobs?

[bluearmy]

that T72 FAX was a surprise. exeter have other models at 3 day range which we wont see. lets see what the T96 looks like after 10pm. the ecm 12z is poor for us because the shape of the depression is more rounded compared to the 00z run. that brings warmer air into the mix. i hope the ecm ens dont support this shape to the depression or the 00z FAX for sunday may look a bit different. there will be more adjustments to sunday/ monday - certainly over the next 24 hours.

Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself as a newbie!

been reading this and the model thread for a few weeks now and you guys in here seem a lot less scary to say hi to!!

I can't read the charts for toffee (im in the lampost watching club) but im trying to make sense of them and I really appreciate the posts which explain things in detail.

I'm in north Kent so I've got my fingers crossed with you guys for an exciting weekend!!

Where in North Kent? You may find my Weather Station of some use to you!

Ok, where's the camera???! I feel like im coming out now but........Yes to all but the last one, however I'm sure if this weekend comes off, that will be checked off too! so glad to see I'm not the only one who does those things, my family think I'm very odd, especially after I told my hubby I wanted a new weather app for my mobile on valentines day

Thanks for the warm welcome!

[PurpleButterfly]

Just looked outside and it's snowing here and starting to sort of give a covering. Didn't really expect that!

[tinybill]

nice to see Alex on look east joining the main weather on the subject of a possible snow fest for us Sunday /Monday at the moment!!

[Mr_Pessimistic]

Looking sooo marginal for sun/mon, so I'm calling for a rain - rain event. Such a shame we don't have nice cold uppers like in 2010, although in 2010, didn't haave any ppn to go with the cold 850s, either one or the other living here. Must change my name to victor meldrew_2 I think.

[saint]

Strange, settling here now on cars, and some on the ground!

[Whereisthesnow?]

Can anyone confirm whether its snowing in Swanley and Beckenham please?

[Suburban Streamer]

Been snowing heavily here now for about 20mins. Massive flakes

[Gary_R_Walker]

Just burnt my toast. On the subject of weather, I'm pretty sure we are having some, but nothing of any consequence.

[TheGate]

Snowing here, big flakes but still too warm to settle. 1.1c

[alexisj9]

Still sleeting here but mostly rain I think, hope it changes soon, been getting a little colder all the time.

[Swave Snow]
