Snow !! don't you just hate it after a while
« on: January 31, 2010, 04:56:11 PM »

Well, I am sick of the snow now  [wall]

it was fun in December but here we go again with more of the bloody stuff , just as my local mountain bike centre was re-opening 5 inches of the stuff fell overnight makingitimpassable once again.The forecast looks bad for the next 2 weeks too   :-(

Roll on the summer as this winter seems to be dragging on

I have enjoyed the snowboarding etc but after a while and with the low temperatures continuing there's little chance of a good thaw for a while here  :tongue3:

I love the seasons in the UK, we are really fortunate  :icon_thumright: 

it's just this snow is anightmare this year as since December my mountain biking has been limited so much due to the damned stuff....... 2 or 3 weeks is fine but it's now almost 2 months of unrideable trails  [wall]  and yes there are some that are clear but only where there are no hills =no fun  :icon_thumleft:

We have snow constantly for 2 months a year here in my part of Germany.
-15 is regularly seen as a daytime temperature and snow clearing is just part of the daily routine.
and Im well fecked off with it now.
Cant even see my 2nd car on the driveway (VW Polo) as its totally buried under snow!

Yes that i a car under there!  :shock:

Where I used to live (in south of Poland near mountains) we had every year half of meter snow and temperature was -18 to -20 in day time! This year was the biggest frost ever recorded in area where i used to live temperature was -25 at night!

Off the met office web site :-

Monday 1 February 2010 to Sunday 7 February 2010

Eventually turning milder
It will take until about Wednesday for the whole of the UK to get back into the milder westerly airstream from the Atlantic. Before then it does turn briefly milder in Scotland with some rain and hill snow, but we're soon back into the colder northerly airstream. Further south it will be a little milder and wetter through Monday night into Tuesday. The second half of the week and into the weekend sees west or southwesterly winds across the UK. With that comes milder conditions, but also bands of rain in association with low pressure systems. During Wednesday, as the transition happens, there could be some significant snow from the Midlands northwards.

Monday 8 February 2010 to Sunday 14 February 2010

Cold returning
High pressure, an anticyclone, will build over Greenland and Scandinavia, and this is going to have a big impact on our weather. Around the edge of that high comes a cold easterly wind. Temperatures will be well below average for all parts of the UK, with a noticeable windchill factor and overnight frosts. Rainfall amounts are likely to be below normal, however snow could well come out of the near continent to affect southern areas at times. Many places will enjoy some cold sunshine but the skies in eastern Scotland and northeast England will probably be rather cloudy.

Monday 15 February 2010 to Sunday 28 February 2010

Staying cold
There looks to be little change in the big picture. The large anticylone remains in place producing cold easterly winds and blocking the progress of Atlantic frontal systems from the southwest. It's going to stay cold with below average temperatures and overnight frosts. Amounts of precipitation are expected to be around normal in the south and east of the UK, but drier than average conditions are expected in the northwest.


Can not see the weather warming up until the end of march!!    :dontknow:      :crybaby2:
