Snow 2021!

[Dos_Box]

I have to admit, I think we are haing a 'proper' winter for once.

Lots of frosts, occasional snow and not too much rain. Nice

Blue skies and sunshine. There’s still ice on our pond, but no snow. A really nice day about 8C here

Not too much rain??!! Seriously??!!!

 

I agree with the lots of frosts and occasional (very poor attempts at) snow, but we've had loads of torrential rain in Liverpool. Other places around the country have had it far worse than us.

 

This photo, taken at Lunt Meadows a couple of weeks ago, shows the extent of the 'snow' near here.

 

 

(Bonus points if you find Ciara the Patterdale hidden in this picture.)

I did, just left and centre of middle of picture! I also followed the link - sounds like a nice place. One issue, you've self-incriminated yourself, either that or you have a very long lead .

Hahaha! Actually, we were just emerging from Roughley's Wood, part of Sefton Meadows, which leads into Lunt Meadows, so were outside the gated 'Dogs must be on a lead' area. Well spotted, though!

All pretty and white this morning - not real snow just kinda small flakey bits - but all over

 

started to melt as soon as the Sun came out - couldn't go out for a bike ride due to

a) possible ice on roads other than main roads

b) flat tyre - investigation led to

i) cut finger

ii) discovery of (near the smear of blood) small and VERY SHARP piece of glass embedded in the 'puncture resistant' tyre rubber - constant cycle of it slicing into the tyre and the 'goo' (tyre sealant) fixing it - repeat until fixed

 

so now Mrs mikeprice can go back to worrying I will go out and come back witha broken arm - again

on which point - cycle helmet has a break - wonder if I have fallen off and bashed my head so badly I forgot about it

 

 

might explain bit

It's been raining quite heavily through the night and all morning. Now we are seeing a few (large) flakes of snow.

Same here. Nothing sticking yet, though - thank goodness!

We are covered by the yellow warning. Mother-in-law, and father-in-law are on the edge of the amber warning (Sunday)

I am in that Amber warning, I have been there before, its a big tease!

 

We live in hope [emoji23]

 

We do indeed, I'm just glad I will actually be able to play about in it now! haha

[Davit2005]

Hopefully I'll pull my finger out and get out for my run on Saturday morning.

 

A lot of fields near where I live are close to a river and are currently flooded, I've seen swans on a few and expecting to see no fishing signs pretty soon.

 

Jus mostly inconvenience to vehicles and people using private roads and bridleways in between the fields, one so deep on Wednesday I couldn't actually run through it. A few sheep occasionally but they have been moved to higher ground,

...but I thought you lived in Kent?

 

 

(Well, someone had to...)

[elsiegee40]

@hardtailstar I shall sulk if you get proper snow and we get the usual dusting

 

We are on the boundary of the amber warning.

I'm only just inside it! But I'll be sulking if we don't get any!

I'll not post pictures of what we've got then.....

 

Snowing here and laying!

[Norphy]

We’ve got a bit of a flurry coming down here in leafy Beckenham. No sign of it settling but you never know I guess

[6Foot2]

North West Herts: Bright sunshine. Not a single flake. Chilly, though.

[elsiegee40]

There is white precipitation now. It’s somewhere between sleet and snow

[hardtailstar]

Still snowing here

[6Foot2]

Tiny snowflakes just started to fall (Not miniature versions of Nigel, Farage, Piers Morgan or Donald Trump before anyone makes that suggestion. )

[stevejp]

Nothing here in the West Midlands.

[free780]

It snowed last night in Leeds and melted overnight. Its started snowing again finely.
