Oh no! Now I'm just inside the northern limit of the warning. It's the hope that kills you.

This is classic ‘screw zone’ stuff 😂 there’ll be a thin wedge of places that will see nothing from this. Looks like we’re right in the middle of it! Been here before many times, ideally we need a NNE flow for any decent snow showers in this part of the region, I think geographically we are in worse in place in the region for anything from the SW as it always agonisingly just grazes us! I hope we can get a 20 mile adjustment north but I’m not being too hopeful!

I think all I'll see is rain as I'm about 5m asl and a few hundred metres from the sea, still, might get a few flakes in the air, I've been surprised before.

Yep. I reckon we will be too far north tomorrow and too far south Thursday/Friday.

Has anyone noticed that when it snows in march the snowflakes are absaloutly huge! 

In past yrs I have observed how big they are.

Wonder why?

Is it to do with warmer temperatures?

If you’re short sighted (like me) take your glasses off before looking out the window. It’s amazing, 50p size flakes all the way.

There'll be snow up here, I fear: as soon as the predicted wind went from a straight northerly to a slack west-north-westerly, it was obvious... It's the same every year! 🦄

No, sorry not yet! Just saying when it does start and it’s, in reality, that cr**py snizzle stuff that does nothing.

Looking very interesting for our part of our world,  I think our regional thread is about to get very busy over the next 24 hours!

 

It's too far south for most I think???
