The big thaw is coming.
 

Thursday, Friday and Saturday will be extremely mild and most snow will be gone by Saturday I think.:elephant:

Oh hello everyone btw.:xyxwave:

Hi there and welcome - not sure which part of the country you're referring to there, but I honestly can't see the depths we have in Scotland being wiped-out by a few slightly milder days Slush and the reformation of ice overnight also tend to make just as dangerous here.

Also, did you notice this thread about suggesting a false dawn weatherwise?

Anyways - here's hoping you're correct :)

Oh Hi!! :xyxwave::xyxwave:

Always nice to see new members on a forum..... but I have to ask...


Source please......

I'm totally happy with that, if it will get rid of all the horrible ice here.

Ditto.

A million times...ditto !

A bit of rain will do the trick

Suppose so Tom. It's quite ironic how everyone looks forward to snow with the onset of winter, then as soon as it arrives we all suddenly remember what a pain in the arse it is.

Memories like goldfish!

As Claymores said up there ^^, it's going to take more than a few days of mild weather to clear what we have here. Never seen anything like it!
There are pile of snow in my street way way taller than me :(
They're going to be there for fecking weeks! I want normality back again!

Ach it will thaw eventually, then come back again in February, never mind though soon be spring.

hope to god thats right

I envy your optimism!! I was just thing "christ, spring seems a lifetime away" when on my way to work this morning! :)

It does seem too far away. I'm sick to the back teeth of snow. Would be happy to never see another flake!

It will not be extremely mild, temps will be back to average or slightly below for the North. Most of the snow will still remain by Saturday.

A gradual thaw is coming
:nono:

Same here!

To be honest I don' think I would mind so much if we had just had a long hot summer but it doesn't really seem that long since last years snow and then a very short, wet summer! :(

Hi and thanks for the welcome everyone. I got the information from the BBC weather site.:joker::blush:

The bbc weather site would make no judgement on temperature (ie mild or cold) and would make no judgement on snow thaw.

so you did not

I want the snow, ice and sh!t to go away now please.

Seconded. !!

The snow needs to come back again :love:

Ice will do though

We would need desert like weather to dispose of the snow thats here :bored:

Same - and where it's been piled high to clear pathways through, some of it will still be there mid-January

Yeah I know.

The bloody tractors keep coming round here making everything worse...piling the snow into mountains in the middle of the roads, and leaving the ice there...surely its better trying to drive on snow than on ice D:

It was quite funny yesterday though...they came round piling the snow up again. The neighbour had spent about half an hour digging his car out. The tractors then deposited the snow right behind his car :laugh: He was fuming and I stood laughing, dont like him anyways :p

:laugh3::laugh3:

Like him or not, I think I'd have laughed too. Saw it happen years ago now though, one of those 'not funny, but very funny' situations!!

Well of course they tell you what temperature its going to be.

If its above freezing it thaws (not too difficult to understand is it?):xyxwave:

And the warmer it is, the quicker it thaws.

Not Mild just 4.


Also this is not for long as the bitter cold returns.

Oh noooo I was looking forward to getting my BBQ out.:bawling:

Yeah I heard it's going to be even worse next week. Just a milder weekend. Still thick with it here

Ours is shifting fast.:elephant:

Ours isnt.

Nor ours :bawling:

Oh dear:bawling::bawling::bawling::hugesmile:

I am shocked at how much of ours has thawed during the night, im actually getting excited that I can finally get out and do some Christmas shopping today :laugh3:

Jobsfortheboys: - you took a bit of flack on this thread, but I have to say.... you've been spot on to a certain degree.

Although the huge piles of snow are still around,..... it's slowly getting back to green trees, and snow on roads gradually dispersing and quickly.... one more day will make all the difference I'm hoping.

:dance2::cheer2::cheer2::cheer2:

Nobody believed me.:bawling::bawling::bawling:

Seeing as I'm the biggest cynic around..... I can't condemn them too much.... :whistle:

we had heavy snow on the south coast finally. Very thick and the pavements thick with ice and slush 2 days later. Thought it would be like that for weeks.

But then.....it rained overnight and the next morning it was all cleared up completely! Just all vanished.

So yeah, rain does the trick.
