FROM THE MET OFFICE

Current warnings:

EARLY WARNING OF SEVERE WEATHER

EARLY WARNING of Heavy Snow Issued by the Met Office at 09:45 on Sunday, 25 December

OVERALL RISK ASSESSMENT: The probability of disruption due to severe weather conditions in parts of the United Kingdom within the next 4 days is 80 percent.
This warning is an update to that issued at 09:45 on Saturday 24 December 2005.
The Met Office expects snow showers to develop over eastern parts of the United Kingdom from Boxing day evening onwards. The showers will become heavy and prolonged in places.
There is potential for several centimetres of snow to occur widely, and in excess of 15cm in a few locations, with Kent and parts of E Anglia most vulnerable to the heavier falls. Icy roads will be an additional hazard.
Some travel disruption is expected.
This warning will be updated by 1000, tomorrow, Boxing Day.


Looking good.

Severe weather???

Only to us :roll:

Canadians consider a drift to be somewhere you can lose your car in until spring :lol:, and a blizzard means not being able to tell which hand is in front of your face.
A totally differant prospect to our dangerous 3" drifts & 'see for 300yards' blizzards

Headline in todays Daily Mail "Snow drifts as deep as six inches...". Buffoons- why don't they think before they type? Still a 6" snowdrift would probably bring the country to a halt- never mind 6" of level lying snow!

Could be headed my way though

EARLY WARNING of Heavy Snow Issued by the Met Office at 09:45 on Monday, 26 December

OVERALL RISK ASSESSMENT: The probability of disruption due to severe weather conditions in parts of the United Kingdom within the next 4 days is 90 percent.
This warning is an update to that issued at 09:45 on Sunday 25 December 2005.
The Met Office expects snow showers to develop over eastern parts of the United Kingdom from Boxing day evening onwards. The showers will become heavy and prolonged in places.
Several centimetres of snow are expected to occur quite widely, and in excess of 15cm is possible in a few locations, with parts of Kent and Essex most vulnerable to the heavier falls, notably during Tuesday. Icy stretches roads will be an additional hazard on untreated surfaces. Some coastal regions exposed to the north will be a little less cold and may well escape the worst conditions.
Travel disruption is expected.
Unless superseded by the issue of flash messages, this warning will be updated by 1000, tomorrow, Tuesday 27th December.
