Winter storm Nika (sounds like it should be sponsored by Nike) now heading up through the Mid West and should hit us in New York tonight. I think it’s forgotten how to snow in the UK.

Light snow flurries in Crap Town at present , rain this morning turned to sleet at midday and now proper white stuff but not much of it. Too wet for it to lay.

As expected really, wet, occasionally chilly and a bit blowy. Everything except real snow.

Plenty of snow falling in the Midlands and not just on high ground, there's even a snow warning for parts of the South East for tonight! (Okay just for Oxfordshire 
) If anyone is awake during the night, you might just see something wintry down here.

Some parts in the NW, Wales, and many upland areas to the North will see snow over the next few days; but not here.

And now there is another one brewing in the deep south, poised to run up the Atlantic coast Wed. night and into Thursday. Depending on track, snow/rain line etc parts of the mid-Atlantic, and the north east corridor, including DC and NYC could get a big dump. Lyndhurst, we'd best hop over to Crafty Tubthumpers craft beer thread and get some ideas for stocking up on essential supplies.

I think you could be right Mr. Chavez. Panic buying is already starting in NYC – but it seems to be bottled water, bread and cat food, certainly not my idea of essential supplies ! I shall be doing some research on the craft beer thread, but will certainly be getting some Heady Topper, Dogfish Head 60 minute IPA and some Mermaid Pilsner from Coney Island Brewery. Then hope my office declares a Snow Day.

So did anyone see anything wintry last night in Sussex? Not sure the showers made it as far as here! Noteworthy weather today for down here but more for west country, Ireland, Wales and Midlands upwards for VERY strong winds. Expected gusts later today in the prone areas could exceed 100MPH! With 60 - 80MPH gusts inland. Down here we could see 80MPG gusts on the coast with 50 - 60MPH gusts further inland. We've then got another storm to deal with on Friday/Saturday which potentially could affect us more, something to keep an eye on..

In Worthing we got heavy thundery showers, but nothing wintry. I'd guess the main reason we only saw rainw as the wind direction down here was just off the sea, a WSW, so lots of warm air off the Channel.

Are the crappy conditions gonna change any time soon? I could do with some sunshine, be that unusually mild February sunshine, or bright, frosty winter sunshine. I'm so fed up with the wind and rain and general bleakness. Just glad and grateful that I'm not one of the poor sods who are flooded.

For once I think they may have this almost right, the high winds seem to be a little further south than predicted and we seem to have a localised hoolie SE of Ireland at the St. Georges Channel bouy recording a gust of 74mph earlier !

I won't believe it until I see a DRAMATIC headline in The Daily Express along the lines of "MEGA storm to DROWN the entire UK"
