[Misc] The Award-winning official "More Snow Tomorrow?" Thread [2023-24 Season]

Doesn't the snow make everything look better? I also like how quiet it is. Shame there's no more on the way.
This morning inspired me to get flights booked to the mountains and go play in the real stuff.

Drive to work from Brighton to hurstpierpoint was fine until I hit the country lanes where I work. Traction control was working overtime on the slightest incline, back end was a bit twitchy (cars, not mine)

-7 here the past few nights and -3 during the day yesterday. Schools closed, trains disrupted and some nasty crashes because of very icy conditions. Snow is a lot of fun in urban areas, not so much in rural areas although very pretty!

Kept it upright somehow, but it isn't moving again until we have a thaw...

Again as I've already been reminded.

Very fine snow falling again in BN9

 

[Audax]

It's trying here in Uckfield again today. Couple of very light flurries about an hour ago, there's currently the finest of fine something falling (fine enough that struggle to see it). That's the fun with snow, isn't it - can be very difficult to forecast exactly where and when it's going to fall when we've got conditions like currently.

seems to be far more snow across central and eastern East Sussex. no gritters had been out in advance, was there no forecast of snow? think they got caught out so the roads have a thin layer of packed snow after being driven on, was quite nasty last night.

Can confirm that the gritters had not been out in Uckfield at all. Despite the yellow alert and forecasts of sub-zero temps over night (and confirmed sub-zero temps previous nights).

Next Sundays forecast locally to me is just like old times, as in last month and last few years

Always amazes me when the sky does this. This is my tree and I took the picture at midnight without a flash.

To be fair that basically is all of the garden or as we call them in London, somewhere they haven't built on yet.

68" of snow in 48 hours - that's some award winning snow in Lake Tahoe

We're still waiting for the inevitable land grab by the turds at HS2.
Our allotment site borders on one of their many dig sites, and they've been expanding, looking for somewhere to dump all of the earth they've dug up.

Only planted them recently

Only planted them recently :wi k:

Sprouts and broad beans?

Sprouts and broad beans?

The raised beds, that's why they're small.
Not worth having too high, as it means humping more earth.

Then surely they're not really raised are they? They're just bordered?
