Thank you my lovelies. I'll try and read back when she is glued to my chest at bedtime! I am here though in the back ground. Thanks she's not that new actually she is 24 weeks now but feels like yesterday I had been contracting for 3 days lol! Little Jess - now 3 1/2 - keeps asking for snow so hope we get something!

So when will wee Stormforec-jess be joining the forum?

Right, just come back from lamp-post watch.

First there was one, then another and then another. Then it stopped.

Then it started again, another one, then more and then more. 

Yep, it was raining, but no lightning off to the south and no thunder

I can go one better than that! I was under a red warning for snow- 2010 i think? @Dorsetbred will remember. I woke up the next morning, red warning had gone and no snow. lol

Here you go, satellite image of that no show, look at the area it missed, Poole, Wareham and Weymouth.

Very icey rain in Wootton Bassett at the moment. A few flakey bits of sleet thrown in. 

[katemart]

Chucking it down with rain now. 12 mm/hr. And has warmed up considerably. Wind chill gone :-( This is rubbish.

Might be worth watching points west forecast this evening after Fergies latest tweet

 

An all nighter could be on the cards after all 

Man I love those white blob graphics 

My expectations have lowered over the past few years. After 2010 anything under 5cm of snow was 'meh'  .. but nowadays I'll take a 1cm dumping any day of the week. Could be the first lampost watch in a LONG  time for Thurs night

Cold rain on the commute home tonight

That's interesting it is currently only 3c outside maybe there is hope yet tonight?

down to 2.9c here now sleet/hail echoes on the higher moor looking at the radar, get this warm sector through might be the odd surprise come the morning

 

[karlos1983]

Arsenal giving me heart palpations, I've had a hard week model watching, I don't need 2-2 within 30 mins  

[Jayfromcardiff]

Is there a good chance of snow tomorrow night then? or is it mainly for higher ground? I mean i'm sure we'd all be grateful for a dusting at the least haha.

[Argyle1980]

I'm in full agreement with you karlos1983.

but as with the weather we are still very much in it for the spoils !

 

[Nights King]

Sleet shower again here now but temperature is falling gradually so maybe just maybe if we can get some heavy showers after mid night we could get a little snow falling.. 

Funny how desperate we have all become after the last 2 winters.. 

[Mapantz]

WOOHOO... BIG FAT....

Drops of rain!

[Zephyr]

Can hear the rain on the roof here, hopefully that could be some white stuff tomorrow!

 

Pressure is finally starting to rise now.

 

[katemart]

Nice squall line developing Bristol down to Penzance. Could get tasty.

 

[Bristawl Si]

Seems a bit sleety here at the mo.

[A.J]

yes Kate, T850's for my neck of the woods are around -3C, with dewpoints of 3C, a spot of evaporative cooling could bring the freezing level down nicely here, might see a wet flake or two in a bit?

[katemart]

Fingers crossed for you! Still 5.0C here and pressure falling.

 

[Frosty hollows]

Same here. 4 C pressure falling, drizzly

Id say so, yes! I use it to get a good idea of temperatures around me and also the weather type radar is useful!
