Road to work

[Neiller]

Looks very stormy from Tuesday to fri for us. Don't think I can ever recall as many warnings for us in one week. Unfortunately it looks like any snow at min just restricted too high ground. But that could change.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Get the feeling it will Neiller

[Weegaz]

Cold and icy in Lisburn at 7am this morning.  Road over the White Mountain to Dundrod was clear apart from some sleet.  Wednesday afternoon into Thursday may give some suprise snowfalls even to lower levels.

 

Some heavy sleet showers yesterday with massive snow flakes, biggest I have seen in a long time.

 

Weather this week looks interesting, everything but the kitchen sink in the mix.

The Met office going for wintry showers from 8pm tomorrow night for my location and straight through to Friday, interesting

Or you could turned the device upside down storm but u do love your yoga positions

pom, I like any position.

also I am very jealous, there must be over an inch of snow there, all we got here was black ice.

Aye pomeroy you have quite a bit of elevation for u to do well out of this. However low lying areas will have to play a waiting game to see what transpires nearer the time. However I firmly believe that anyone in elevation over 80-100 metres might get a few surprises thrown at them. It does not take much for snowfall in these situations just a little ASLEEP and I think this elevation will be the jackpot.

Elevation that was not asleep

Don't worry Storm you will get your fill of snow (I hope)

That sucks Neiller, i'm at 70m asl lol

[Neiller]

May still be ok for you weegaz. But it will be marginal. Don't machine snow warnings to come out nearer time. More like nowcasting.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Is your predictive text going haywire

[stormforce 10]

Don't worry Storm you will get your fill of snow (I hope)

yep I think wednesday to saturday is of main interest.

[Neiller]

Yeah I hate predictive text. Pain in backside!

Went for a drive around the sperrins today not a lot of snow around was a bit disappointed only took one photo.

I also noticed the waves were nice and big at castle rock so I went onto the beach to have a look and something bad happened lol.

[stormforce 10]

[sundog]

A nice dry,cold, crisp, bright day here today,my coldest max day so far 4.3c.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Hmm for this Friday

[Rocheydub]

Been following the output for this weekend PS, at best for us this side will be cold rain, and maybe some sleet, but if the current trend is correct, just that! No chance of lying snow at my latitude/altitude/longitude!!! 

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Fingers crossed for you Rochey, anyway at least we cannot say that the weather has been boring this week

[gary1365]

Wee bit windy this morning and not so cold either.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Will be later tonight Gary hopefully we might get a dusting, looking rather cool the rest of this week. Oh and winter is over then

Why do my emoticons not work on this!!!!

[gary1365]

Winter is definitely not over lol. I would like to see lying snow but at my elevation i doubt I'll see much this week unless I go looking for it.
