Bugger Sad

We have a dusting of snow but enough to make the estate very difficult to get out of.

lal123 · 17/12/2010 06:15

Hurray! Another snowless morning - yippee!!!!

OhYouSnowySnowyKitten · 17/12/2010 07:48

impressive Lal!!

Teuch that sounds very brrrrrr.

Interesting tomorrow, less snow risk for many showing on the latest GFS - shows some escaping it all together. UKMO too - though where gets hit is different in each case.
Would be almost easier if we did all have proper snow then travelling/not travelling would be easy to decide.

Still no snow here either. Quite glad about that! We got enough last time.

NoahAndTheWhale · 17/12/2010 07:55

Nothing in York. Very cold though

SuePurblybiltbyElves · 17/12/2010 08:39

I have snow! A good covering, just enough for a 4yo to sledge on Xmas Grin

Holding out for more so I can get a snowman made.

lostinwales · 17/12/2010 08:39
Sad 5 miles in any direction from here all the schools are closed, we have about 0.5cm of snow, disappointed children, and lunch boxes still to pack, bum. I think out of all the schools in our area only DH's and the boys are open.
WilfShelf · 17/12/2010 09:14

OMG. Just did school run and got dumped on by what I think must be GRAUPEL! SEems to have stopped now though...

ledodgy · 17/12/2010 09:16

We've just had Graupel too.

mankyscotslass · 17/12/2010 09:25

Beautiful sunny, crisp day.

The frost is creeping across the cars like feathers.

I'm realy disappointed that it looks less likely for heavy snow for us this weekend. Sad

SuePurblybiltbyElves · 17/12/2010 09:26

Graupel Gang. I'm making badges and working on a password.

GeorgeWHollyBush · 17/12/2010 09:27

nothing on the I.O.W, snowed for about 10 minutes at 19:00 and then again at 22:00. Very icy this morning.

DH managed to drive from Scotland to home in 7 hours last night Shock.

We're still under an orange weather warning for tomorrow though. Gah.

OYBBK - were you congratulating me? For my shiny, new vacuum cleaner?! Grin

itsTwiiiiitmaaaaasss · 17/12/2010 09:41

Good morning!

Herefordshire;
frosty, cloudy, a bit of snow dust in the air otherwise nothing.
It is nowhere near as dark as it was yesterday though.

midnightexpress · 17/12/2010 09:55

Morning all. Still no snow in Glasgow (yeay!). Blimmin cold though.

patienceplease · 17/12/2010 09:56

Twiitmaaaas you got there before me! And in answer to your question about how long I'm here- I don't mind getting stuck inherefordshire as I'm not planning on leaving till30th. Would be nice for kids to get some proper snow- down south we had very little last year even when everyone else had some.
I can even see blue sky in Hereford right now- Tis cold tho.

lostinwales · 17/12/2010 10:15

Can I join the Graupel Gang too? It would make up for the fact that it's the only thing left on the ground here after all the beautiful feathery snowflakes of last night melted.

laughalot · 17/12/2010 10:31

Morning im in nottinghamshire very bad ice here and cold im hoping for a load of snow tomorrow Grin.

itsTwiiiiitmaaaaasss · 17/12/2010 10:32

lol graupel gang. we had it once, does that count? Grin
we have sunshine here too now.

LadyGlencoraPalliser · 17/12/2010 10:37

About a centimetre of snow here in North Devon, but it will melt rapidly as it is not very cold atm. Looks like we are in line for more overnight though.

TeuchnutsRoastingOnAnOpenFire · 17/12/2010 10:38

How are we pronouncing 'graupel' may I check?

Snow has eased here, although I reckon we may get a wee bit more before the day is much older.

mankyscotslass · 17/12/2010 10:41

I am jealous of those with snow!

Still glorious sunshine here, and tbh I thinks the prospect of buckets of snow for us is fading rapidly. Sad

It's going to be a very cold lunchtime for me in the school playground!

clayre · 17/12/2010 10:42

still no snow in Dundee!

GodRestYeMerryMummyLin · 17/12/2010 10:46

No snow in Bournemouth ,bright and sunny here.I want some snow !!!

midnightexpress · 17/12/2010 11:01

OYBBK, going slightly off-topic here, but is there any truth in that thing that people say sometimes: 'it's too cold to snow'? I'm thinking that it must be rubbish (for evidence, see Canada, Siberia), but someone said it to me yesterday and it struck me. Is it just that warm bit before the cold bit thing that you were talking about yesterday?

fatsatsuma · 17/12/2010 11:06

It's snowing very heavily here in N oxon. Has been for about 20 mins and still looking very dark. It just shows that the best way to predict the weather is to look out of the window, as we were forecast a sunny day I think Grin

No graupel though Envy
