If I get a chance then I'll look in on the thread tomorrow - if DD3 is off school I may be too busy though.

majormother · 17/01/2013 23:10

The same as Lechat - I was worried it was that the snow has all been called off Grin

lubeybooby · 17/01/2013 23:30

Bit worrying that temps are up here. Nowhere near as cold as it was... could we end up with slush and sleet? Shock

Southsearocks · 18/01/2013 00:07

Oh bugger. Just remembered I did an online shop with Sainsburys and booked it for tomorrow afternoon......sigh.........

On the other hand... Yippee!! It's gonna snow! I can't sleep (saddo) Grin

Snowing here in Norwich again. Hoping council will be more prepared than Tuesday, when I was stuck in traffic on Dereham road (takes usually 10 mins) for 2hrs.
Also people are apparently panic buying here!

lubeybooby · 18/01/2013 03:10

can't sleep, the snow radar is too interesting seeing it all approach and checking for corresponding weather out the window :)

Another sad person who has been awake since 5am as so excited. Its worse than Christmas!

MegGriffin · 18/01/2013 06:02

No snow yet though.

PeppermintCreams · 18/01/2013 06:04

No snow in suburban London yet.

Follyfoot · 18/01/2013 06:08

Just ventured outside in my dressing gown armed with a tape measure. We're up to around 3" of snow and its just started to snow again....Derbyshire Dales.

Tortoise · 18/01/2013 06:13

Lovely layer of snow in Somerset and snowing heavily. DC all awake, too excited to sleep! Grin Grin Grin

UnderwaterBasketWeaving · 18/01/2013 06:22

We have snow. Not a great depth (yet), and it's very wet, but it's coming down heavily and being blown around.

TwllBach · 18/01/2013 06:32

I am about to venture out of bed to see if we have snow. I shall report back...

OhYouBadBadKitten · 18/01/2013 06:37

TSG - give it a bit of time, it should change as the cold air starts to feed into the system :)

TwllBach · 18/01/2013 06:39

Bloody weather forcasts I am mightily disappointed.

BlackAffronted · 18/01/2013 06:40

Any chance you could tell me if we will get ANY snow? Montrose area of east Scotland. Thank you!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 18/01/2013 06:41

Its nearly here!!! should be at mine as we set off for work/school.

looks like last nights stuff has thinned out somewhat and this mornings weather crashes into it. Fascinating!

Follyfoot · 18/01/2013 06:42

Morning BadKitten. Thanks again for all your wise words on here. Will be interested to see how much more we get as we sneak into the amber warning area, unlike the rest of Derbyshire which is just yellow (preens). We're quite high up here - about 500ft - dont know whether that makes any difference to anything?

hopenglory · 18/01/2013 06:42

Rain here, no snow

OhYouBadBadKitten · 18/01/2013 06:43

Twlbach - what have you got???

OP posts:
OhYouBadBadKitten · 18/01/2013 06:45

hopenglory, i cant remember if you said where you are?

follyfoot, yes higher ground does make a difference :)

blackaffronted - you have a good chance of snow showers
