Title: Who has snow then?
Post by: Vamps on 22 March 2013, 22:37:33
Bloomin cold here today but despite it trying on and off all day not actual snow on the ground, road reports in the area offer a different story, A66 closed on the moor. We are supposed to be going to the caravan (Static) tomorrow, Ripon, North Yorkshire, to open it up ready for Easter, we will make a final decision in the morning..... ::) ::)

Fed up with the snow and cold now, even with the Jeep..... ;)

We are very fortunate to have this local amateur weather centre in nearby Bracknell, which I really like, for current statistics, but also for their archive.  :y :y :y

This shows that in March we are 3.3cegC below peak daily average.  :'( We have no snow, only sleet and a very cold biting wind.  :( :( :(

http://www.weatherfamily.org/bracknell/wxstats.html (http://www.weatherfamily.org/bracknell/wxstats.html)

I've always been interested in the weather and in my first and second years at secondary school, two of us used to record max and min temperature, wind speed, wind direction, sunshine, rainfall and air pressure on every school day. They were all mechanical instruments in those days.

When I'm full time in Ukraine, I want to set up my own local weather centre, similar to the above, but also to run a webcam, so people can also see for themselves.  :y :y :y

I'm a hot weather person, so I'm a bit fed up these below average temperatures since September. Every month except December have been below average, with for 2013 -0.3degC, -1.4.degC and -2.7degC below average from January to March.  :o :o :o

In Ukraine, they have got spring, today was sunny and +20degC. Weather in March is very variable and can vary from +20degC to -10degC depending upon which direction the wind is blowing and the weather is coming from. In April it is normal to have regular +20degC and by May getting into the +30degC.  :y :y :y

This is suspect is similar to the South of France and Spain where they are at a similar latitude.  :)

Snowed all night and most of the day (still snowing), about 4" here, although roads seem clear (well they were when I went out this afternoon)

But if it freezes overnight - tomorrow morning could be interesting ;)

20 minutes with a shovel will soon make that passable ;)

Quite impressed with how clear the roads are around here... Snowed constantly since about 11 am yesterday (stopped briefly an hour or so ago but starting again now) and all the roads are fine

We keep getting flurries of snow but the biting Easterly wind shifts it as soon as it falls. On the other hand, we have some pretty impressive SAND Drifts as it's coming off the beach in a never ending high velocity cloud! I'm really glad I live a quarter mile away & not on the sea front otherwise a full respray would be on the cards  :D ;D

General Winter never gives up as 6cm snow there is over half of the country and the prognose does not suggest any better for next some days but continous snowing. My girlie loves it I dont so much...
