A snow - less Worthing helenagrace

It's been snowing steadily in south Derbyshire (4 miles from derby city centre) since 3pm.

We've got a lovely covering now and it's just keeping on falling.

I'm seriously beginning to doubt that DH will make it back from Chester tomorrow though :(

OhYouBadBadKitten · 17/01/2013 22:08

Latest GFS is out now...... :)

Thanks Kitten, we might just strike it lucky then Grin

I've a feeling that the snow band that's currently sitting over the middle of England is going to hang around and the heavy snow band is going to crash into its arse around 10-11am tomorrow....

Hey OYBBK I've sent you a PM. I'd really out myself if I asked about the event I need to go to tomorrow. If you are too tired/fed up - don't worry!! Don't stay up too late pandering to us

MooncupGoddess · 17/01/2013 22:11

Oh, that sounds exciting, ArkadyRose! (By the way, I am totally envious of your previous job as a London Underground line controller. How exciting!)

OhYouBadBadKitten · 17/01/2013 22:11

And it looks pretty similar to before but it does give the Nw more than the UKMO model does, so those Manchester way don't lose heart yet.
However GFS also shows less heavy snow in the afternoon for the south than before.

Sorry kitten I've read the thread but am desperate for a snow day am in north Wales, is it worth me getting my hopes up?

OhYouBadBadKitten · 17/01/2013 22:30

I'm afraid I've got bad news for you all.

I'm working all day tomorrow and I have to be in work a bit early too. I'm going to try and get up a bit early cos obviously I want to update here, but I've also got to get us all out of the house togged up in full snow gear, so my time will be limited I'm afraid. Don't let the thread go cold! And please start another with a similar title if we get close to our limit.

Off to bed in a few minutes, tomorrow is going to be full on!

All offers of gin gratefully received! North Wales should do ok :) but you will be better placed if you ar away from the north coast.

LeChatRouge · 17/01/2013 22:33

Phew, for a minute then, I thought the bad news was no snow.

Have a fun, safe day kitten.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 17/01/2013 22:33

Just looked nervously out of the window and still no snow here. It looks like it'll be here in the morning according to the beeb. I don't think I'll be able to sleep.

Take care everyone.

magentastardust · 17/01/2013 22:56

I am in North East Scotland , it is winter, my garage is full of snow boots ,sledges, silhouettes- I should have snow ! Where is my snow ??? It's been a couple of years now since we have had a proper full on calf deep snow fall which we used to get at least a couple of times a year.
