Yeah marginal but the right side of marginal for snow fans starting to stick to the trees now

I am still among those hoping for the colder scenarios to verify, rather than the milder ones. I must say, though, that I would strongly welcome a warmer spell if it involved a fair amount of sunshine, rather than a grey south-easterly regime with daytime maxima struggling to near average and night-time minima above average.

I've been having an unexpected accumulation of snow in N Yorks recently which bodes well for lying snow on Monday/Tuesday.

Really?? Surely we've seen more impressive falls this year, let alone 2010!

[peterf]

try up here,you live in the tropics compared to this location.still going flat out a good inch accumulated and looking at the radar the heavier precip will turn to snow as it rolls in.

proper snow this, lovely outside with a ground temp of 0.2c and flat calm.
