At least we now know what an SSW event and Split polar vortex are.
Oh for days of blissful ignorance.
tbf, not sure it was supposed to hit here today to the extremes of elsewhere.I don't know but being 'Informed' seems so prohibitive to the point of Inertia.
Shitting it down at Westwood Business Park currently.
Hope they use that term on central weather tonight as that would be the end of annoying Des
If it keeps snowing like it is I should be able to make a snow ball about August.
Total over reaction from the weather people so far but as usual they will brush it off.
The only weather they get right is when they tell you the weather from earlier and they all look so smug getting it right
This is really the issue for me.tbf, not sure it was supposed to hit here today to the extremes of elsewhere.
But I do feel the dire warnings are counterproductive. The day there's a genuine warning I won't believe it, as I'll be thinking it's just another overreaction. Then there'll be all the news stories about people ignoring the warnings!
I'm in Wiltshire not too far from Dorset. No significant snow at the moment. However that's supposed to change tomorrow morning where it's supposed to get pretty bad all over the South West.Meant to be travelling down to Dorset tomorrow.
Does anyone possibly based down there know if it's really snowed in yet?
My parents (gawd bless 'em) have postponed their holiday down there for that very reason so, for their sake, I hope you get hellishly snowed inI'm in Wiltshire not too far from Dorset.

Haha. It's supposed to be bad. My Mrs' school has already been closed tomorrow and Friday. The lads school is closing at half 12, and there's no milk in the shops.My parents (gawd bless 'em) have postponed their holiday down there for that very reason so, for their sake, I hope you get hellishly snowed in
It's currently -8c here, never known it so cold in England.
Are you old enough to remember the winters in the 60's/70's ? This was normal and us kids loved it !Snow can fuck off! It’s nearly March!

Yep, you have to really feel for the homeless when it's like this.Thought the same earlier, only saw one homeless person on my lunch today in town (opposite the flower man across from M&S I think it was a phone shop last in the doorway.)
Hope the others have got In somewhere and I guess those that I have my suspicions about that beg are Home in their warm flats or houses.

One of the lads at work set up a bit of a fund to supply clothes and hot meals for the homeless in salisbury. He was down there with fresh cooked chilli and all sorts of warm clothes yesterday.
Sometimes we have to realise how lucky we are.

Fair play to you mate. I know you live in Brighton. I work there 3 days a week and see first hand the problem that the city has with people living on the streets.Most of the time we don't even see homeless people as they tend to sleep off the street for their safety. I organised a football tournament at work and raised over £3k the other week, such a rewarding experience.
Yup. I tried walking the dog but it was horrendous. My ears were really stinging within about 6 or 7 mins and the cold on my face was quite painful.It's currently -8c here, never known it so cold in England.

That 3k must have done an awful lot for those people.

No but remember it in the 80s. I don’t mind proper snow but this just can’t make up its mind!Are you old enough to remember the winters in the 60's/70's ? This was normal and us kids loved it !
Fine round here but I was due to head up to Wakefield. I’m not going!Nothing wrong on the roads this morning apart from spots of black ice down the lanes.
