Freezing up here. No snow.

We got about 15cm here from a storm but not too bad...... I reckon it will be gone by end of week when temps are supposed to hit 10...

We had a light powdering that melted after an hour. There's still some on the cars and house roofs.

Went for our eye tests earlier and it felt like -5 out in the open.

Dude111 09-01-2024 17:34

The other night I went for a walk and it was -7

Re: Snow !
 
Very little melted today, lots of white roofs, gardens and cars still. My gran would say "It's waiting for some more"

Tinky 10-01-2024 17:11

Re: Snow !
 
Very cold down here, flurry of snow this morning which has since disappeared. At least the high winds have abated. :erm:

Same here. After 3 inches of snow yesterday we are back to just frost.

Just put our dustbins out for collection tomorrow morning and had to prise them open tp break the frost layer that had sealed them to add some rubbish.

Temp is currently -5° and heading down to -6° until 7am tomorrow. at which point it is due to rise to a barmy -3° by midday tomorrow.

Paul 18-01-2024 01:29

Re: Snow !
 
Wow, its now -9.0C here :shocked: - the coldest I can remember for a few years.

Re: Snow !
 
I thought Americans used degrees F (Fahrenheit) not C (Centigrade/Celsius) ?

Dude111 18-01-2024 19:09

Yea well when your not happy with how your country treats the world,you tend to use other countries ways :)

Mr K 07-02-2024 22:00

Re: Snow !
 
Alexa says there's going to be 3.68cm of snow tomorrow. She seems very sure of that. I will be getting my ruler out and checking on her.

Re: Snow !
 
A friend that recently moved to Canada sent me some photos yesterday. Over 3ft deep snow drifts over night. Looked insane.

Dude111 08-02-2024 15:14

mrmistoffelees 08-02-2024 15:22

Re: Snow !
 
Was meant to be 5-10cm here

Paul 08-02-2024 21:37

Re: Snow !
 
We got snow here from about 9am until midday.
It didnt really ever settle, there is still a sprinking on a few surfaces.

Paul 09-02-2024 13:37

Re: Snow !
 
Rain, rain, rain today - its washed away all the remaining snow.

Dude111 13-02-2024 06:00

Supposed to be a huge storm coming here 2morrow but hopefully it will go south as I heard them saying!!

Paul 19-11-2024 04:28

Re: Snow !
 
We have our first snow of this autumn, about an inch so far, expecting more.

Re: Snow !
 
Snowed here in Wakefield too. Helped me realise the heater isn't working in the car.

Stephen 19-11-2024 08:43

Re: Snow !
 
No snow in Glasgow just -2 °C here at the moment. Expected highs of 2°C.

Taf 19-11-2024 11:11

Re: Snow !
 
What snow stuck is rapidly vanishing as sleet falls. 3c.

Paul 20-11-2024 00:05

Re: Snow !
 
We ended up with 3 inches of the white stuff.
Partially melted during the day, but whats left is freezing now (-2.8C here atm).

We had a light dusting overnight on Monday, but the roads stayed clear and it has now all melted away.

Gave us an excuse to put the gas fire on for the first time since March.

Are you kidding Dude? We pray for snowfall. Britain stops , there are national headlines if there is one flake. If it falls in the SE, a national emergency is declared. We love it.

tweetiepooh 21-11-2024 10:23

Re: Snow !
 
It's sprinkling down here. Heating is all sorted and working but if it stays maybe an excuse to light the fire.

Re: Snow !
 
It's been threatening snow for the last week, but all we got was -1 ->-2°C. We had 10mins of sleet this afternoon. Due to freeze again tonight and stay at -1 most of tomorrow.
With rain due as well as more freezing overnight I'm just happy that ...........on side note. Our central heating boiler stopped working last Friday night -2°C. When our central heating guy checked what was going on he found that the heat exchanger had developed a pin hole leak. He phoned the Ideal Boiler people as the 5 year old boiler still has 5 years warranty left and, because I'am at hospital most days, the firm sent out an engineer who came yesterday evening and ...... we have heat and hot water again!!!!

GrimUpNorth 22-11-2024 21:21

Re: Snow !
 
Still got some on the north facing side of the garage roof. Surprised it's lasted since Monday night.

Paul 22-11-2024 23:54

Re: Snow !
 
We had more in the early hours of today (about another inch) which then froze.

SnoopZ 23-11-2024 11:08

Re: Snow !
 
Luckily only had a few frozen flakes on my car on Wednesday night and I want to keep it that way.

Paul 04-01-2025 23:04

Re: Snow !
 
Its started to snow here, only lightly atm.

thenry 05-01-2025 06:23

Re: Snow !
 
It was snowing here in Crawley last night. The rain early this morning has washed it all away :D Just as well I hate icy pathways

Hugh 05-01-2025 08:12

Re: Snow !
 
About 4 inches of snow in NW Leeds

Taf 05-01-2025 10:06

Re: Snow !
 
An inch, then sleet started to stick on the roads. It's all gone now.

SnoopZ 05-01-2025 11:04

Re: Snow !
 
An inch over night down near Cambridge, luckily it's melting quickly.

mrmistoffelees 05-01-2025 11:26

Re: Snow !
 
Good couple of inches in boro but it’s very wet, looks like there’s plenty more up in the sky though

GrimUpNorth 05-01-2025 13:02

Re: Snow !
 
Just been watching the chap next door struggling to get his car up the road - he normally parks his car at the bottom of the hill and walks up. I'm going out to have a drive drive past his house, might even stop outside and set off again. He's a numpty and no-one on the road likes him. I hope he remembers saying people with 4 wheel drive are pretentious pricks - maybe I am but it means a few inches of snow won't stop me.

Taf 07-01-2025 11:53

Re: Snow !
 
Not snow, but severe black ice on main roads that weren't gritted near me caused a major accident yesterday and another this morning.

Dude111 12-02-2025 19:11

We are supposed to get a big mess sometime tonight or tommorow... Tommorow its supposed to be near 10 so I know it wont be snow luckily!
