Cold Snap coming our way

that's because we never get any 

Is that Scandinavia or the UK?

Newham

so what - we are not Canada? - it's only two weeks. FFS over the top reactions every year. go and buy a quilt from Morrisons. a hot water bottle from the sports shop. and buy some hot food.

Rail delays inevitable due to the wrong kind of snow.

Just going to do the last of my food stocking up today to save me going out in the cold.
Wind has picked up in Leeds

good luck everybody

soon it will be winter and the snow will swirl, beautiful.

Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean
The unborn grass lies waiting
For its coat to turn to green
The snowbird sings the song he always sings
And speaks to me of flowers
That will bloom again in spring

Snow better to get about in than the rain if on foot

Yes the newspapers were right
Snow was general all over Ireland
It was falling softly on the Bog of Allen
and, further westwards, softly falling into
the dark mutinous Shannon waves
It was falling too upon every part of the churchyard

No doubt all the gritting lorries will be snowed in.

it's reached an absolutely shivering ,bone numbing , excrutiating and uncomfortable plus 7 degrees centigrade  here ,with a very gentle breeze in Eastern England  .
I really don't know how i'm going to survive . 

theres a rumour that its as low as 11c in South Western England . This is terrible .


I have stockpiled the cellar with tinned pears and kendal mint cake as a safeguard

coachbuster if you read the opening post it says from thursday, today is wednesday.

Coachbuster, it's grim here in South East London as well. I had to wear a jumper when I went to the bakery at lunchtime.

Ditto in West London. I had to think long and hard about wearing a cravat earlier as I braved New Kings Road.

Can't be as cold as my bedroom, doors been frozen solid for about 8 years now ....

SNOW HELL in 24 HOURS: Whole of UK to be trapped in -10C freezing DOUBLE VORTEX for a week.

TWO colossal swathes of churning, freezing air will close in on Britain over the next 24 hours triggering snow across the whole of the UK and the worst nationwide freeze for six years.
- The Army is on standby to deal with weather-related emergencies over the next few days as Britain braces for the most severe whiteout since 2010.

- The Daily Express.

What a load of bs.

Just said rain tomorrow turning to snow during pm in south east.

Just end up being a slushy mushy mess, and all gone by the following day no doubt.

JM - kwality 

BBC South-East, "there is a chance of snow settling with possible disruption to road,rail and air travel."

Not very good for tomorrows f/c, bit guessy and less than 24 hours away, seem to be hedging bets, win win either way for them.
That minxy one(weather presenter) gets away with murder,all she was short of saying was i haven't a feckin clue.

Norfolk's suppose to get some snow tomorrow evening, the coldest it's going to get is -1. Then it will all be gone the next day.

I'm glad I never buy any newspapers, I knew most of the headlines are lies.. but  now they're lying about the weather too.

They appeared to have Missed the Hurricane that hit the north east over night

Not a mention of the storm , it didn't just hit the north east , it was here in the Pennines as well .

yeah ,but which thursday ?  and what year are you talking about ? 

Daily Mail have rolled out the most sensational word they can make up. Apparently, we'll be getting THUNDERSNOW!!!

It was a disaster case, my ginger wig flew off. God knows where it ended up.

Slippy blue, flitting between the pub and bakery all day. Time out to walk the beast on the heath. Back to the mansion for a roast with the missus.

Loving this lifestyle.

How much is spent on weather forecasting? The blizzards/snow promised earlier in the week look a lot like the rainy drizzle which is standard for Manchester

Have a look at this article in the Yorkshire Evening Post..

The best line..
But she warned: "Even a centimetre of snow in this country can obviously cause some disruption," adding that there could be "some showers inland, but they are likely to be short-lived".
