[Misc] The Award-winning official "More Snow Tomorrow?" Thread [2024-25 Season]

[casbom]

What a great week of cold weather so far! Gradually got colder during last week with the ground drying out and freezing in prep for the snow on Friday, got a good 8cm and then snizzled most of yesterday with another 4 or 5cm today! I live next to Tilgate now so took the boys up there for some sledging...they hated it but they are only 3 and 1..maybe next year!

Right for this coming week it's going to stay cold so the snow for most should still be around come Friday. As for further wintry stuff there's a chance tomorrow but this is 50/50, definitely a case of watching the radar and the NAE forecast to get an idea. Tuesday there's another chance then it looks to dry up for a couple of days although some surprise snowfalls can't be ruled out. Turning more sleety rainy near coasts unfortunately from Tuesday onwards. The breakdown at the moment appears next weekend. It might be a snowy breakdown or go out in a whimper. The outsider at this stage is the GEM model which shows a channel low next weekend so keeping the cold going!

An interesting weeks weather coming up.

As you switch the lights off and head for bed, don't you just love the glow of snow lighting up the darkness of the night, bloody lovely

Blimey, when I went to bed it was coming down a bit, but it's really come down over night. 1st half decent amount and very windy. Doesn't sound like we've had as much up here as you guys, but more forecast today and tomorrow... Shame I've got to be in work in 2hrs 16mins!

Seen the website, but previous experience tells me to treat anything on there as a greater work of fiction than Harry bloody Potter

From southern website

Services across our network are being disrupted due to the late finish of improvement works, which has delayed our lines being treated to remove the build up of ice. Trains are unable to operate between Lewes / Brighton / Haywards Heath and Three Bridges in both directions and buses are being arranged to operate between Brighton and Three Bridges. These buses are expected to start operating from approx 07.30.
Passengers travelling towards London from West Coast stations can travel via the Arun Valley line between Barnham and Three Bridges.

Extremely icy this morning.

 

[pasty]

As I said, work of fiction! Checked the website at 5.45 and no different to yesterday. Got to station in time for 6.40 Gatwick Express which still hadn't departed when I gave up and came home at 7.15

I don't mind delays and cancellations in this weather and completely understand it all, but Southerns communication is awful.

The upside is, I have just been given permission by my team leader to WFH until all the snow has cleared

Looks possible later on.

Papa,

A mate is due to fly to India on Friday for his wedding, he is panicking a bit due to all the cancellations at Heathrow , are we due any later in the week?

Cheers

Papa -

Any more snow due for Brighton/Lewes/Hove for today and the rest of the week?

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

I think that's it for us now :-(

Papa Lazarou must dread coming on here now with all the questions he gets bombarded with!

Looks like there's a chance of something this afternoon, but I'm not confident myself. Tonight will be very cold and frosty, and there's another batch coming in tomorrow - which may be sleet or snow depending on where you are. Neither looks like a lot of snow though.

The radar is showing a channel streamer - which may clip the coast neat Eastbourne. This may develop.

Looks mild and possibly wet by the weekend.

Up to 10 degrees by the weekend! Bye bye snowmen of Sussex.

Are you or the right thread, or just being "anti" in a look at me sort of way

Very anti the snow, my kids have grown up and flown the nest, all snow means to me is over half of our staff deciding they can't get to work.

Love the way it makes things look pristine and stuff, hate the way effects daily life.

 

[chucky1973]

is it correct that we have more snow forecast for Sussex this afternoon, Beeb saying from 2pm till 6?
