lol its just started pissing down with rain here and theres thunder as well, which is kinda odd, as theres a load of low pressure, not high pressure around:(

It was -4 as well earlier, so it may snow soon :)

As the most southern member of the Big Game attendees i can confirm that bournemouth is under about an inch of the white stuff which fell in around 30 mins at about 7-8pm little after it started in portsmouth. Its sooo much fun sliding up and down the road coz bournemouth has never heard of gritter lorries! :P We went to blockbuster and its an interesting experience doing a 360 on a roundabout :D

lol :)

Well I walked to kick boxing in the snow, and almost slipped up on icy patches and frozen puddles so many times it wasn't funny.

I then procced to throw a snowball at Leigh, getting my self into great trouble.

Snow rocks! I WONT MORE :) the storm was also very cool, I love thunder and lighting, something about the raw unharnesed power, kinda reminds me of me ;)

Right, i ahd a similar experence 2 dave, walking to the pub after fencing nearly impaled myself on someones saber infront of me when i slipped!

TBG Snow Forcast
He he guess who is made to study metrology :(

Neway the weather station at the uni says that the pressure is contiuning to drop. Couple that with the attached satalite data i predict that:

Tommorow there may be snow showers, coupled with medium winds. there will be a sunny patch, sometime in the late morning, followed by either rain/sleet or more snow.

Maxium temperatures 5celcius minium of -2.

Oh and by saturday its gonna rain!

So there we have it, TBG SNOW FORCAST!

I take no responsability if this is wrong!

Theres no snow here now ( :( ) but there is lots of ice which made walking into uni this morning almost as fun as trying to run in an ice skating rink with skate shoes (no grip!)

Anyway its sunny and warm now so it'll all be gone soon....

What's wrong with meteorology?! Thats my degree! :p

Very rare to get snow and thunder and lightning btw, for those that are interested.


lol its just started pissing down with rain here and theres thunder as well, which is kinda odd, as theres a load of low pressure, not high pressure around

It was -4 as well earlier, so it may snow soon

And also, thunderstorms occur in low pressure regions usually, not high pressure.

Snow is pretty exciting. got 14inches the last winter I was in the USA. School closed for a week. :D
