Radar still implying there's some headed into Sussex........

Allegedly there is some falling in Firle but it’s either very small or my eyesite is getting worse

 

[Papa Lazarou]

We are off again. It’s harder to judge flumpage because the wind is so strong but I’d say it’s a good level 4 now.

I still think you're level 4 is most other people's level 2.

Is this the most disappointing French import into Brighton since Florent Chaigneau?

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Very tiny flakes coming down in Newhaven, but fast in the wind.

Mine is high up, as the boiler is in the loft

It's at the very top of this massive icicle under the overhang for the roof. Because of it's location I couldn't pour a kettle on it (I tried and just got covered in boiling water, which froze instantly on my ski jacket).

I ended up using a heat gun with an extension lead out of the nearby window.

Mine was in a similarly difficult position to get to, managed to get it in the end with a long pole with a hot water bottle attached to it!

Wondering now how I keep it from freezing again though?!

If mine is anything to go by, I'd say 9 years!

Swirling in the wind a lot

You may have a point, I do get over excited.

Can you re-post the flumpage scale please as I now can’t find it.

Level 5 = Oh my god! Double Flumping - 20m or less visibility
Level 4 = Heavy snow - Flumping - 20m - 100m visibility
Level 3 = Medium intensity
Level 2 = Flizzle - Light snow falling consistently
Level 1 = Flurries - Similar to precum (a bit of excitement leading to the big event)

But we also have the granularity

Small
Medium
Large

Okay then, based on that, half an hour ago, we had level 3 large, it's now on level 1 small.

We are up the top of the hill though so I reckon that might account for some of the historical difference, maybe worth an extra 0.5 on the flumpage dial due to the extra altitude.

Ha, ha, yes just spoke to a mate of mine who is a plumber and said it takes about 5 days of constantly below zero temperatures for one of those to freeze. He said he had done 6 of them today!

Just freezing cold in BN43

So we're now under an amber warning! First time all week if I'm not mistaken. This has just been updated.
Permission to get excited!?
