Not forecast for Bristol it seems.

Bristol never gets any snow though :( That time last year (and the year before?) when the whole of the UK got amazing amount of snow, Bristol had none. Sigh.
Yeah I want some snow too. One of my friend's brothers went to uni here in Bristol (UWE not UoB though :p ) and he didn't see any snow for the 3 years he was here. He was always in the wrong place at the wrong time. Home when it snowed in Bristol, and in Bristol when it snowed at home. I hope that doesnt happen to me, I like the snow :(

EARLY WARNING OF SEVERE WEATHER
EARLY WARNING of Heavy Snow Issued by the Met Office at 12:00 on Sunday, 26 February

OVERALL RISK ASSESSMENT: The probability of disruption due to severe weather conditions in part of the United Kingdom within the next 84 hours is 90 percent.
This is the first warning of disruption due to Heavy Snow.
The Met Office is forecasting a very cold northerly flow to become established across the UK during Tuesday. This is expected to bring snow showers to many places. Areas most at risk are coastal and upland regions exposed to the northerly flow - in particular northern and northeastern Scotland along with some eastern counties of England. In these areas frequent heavy snow showers could bring accumulations of 5-10cm at times, with 30 percent risk of locally over 20 cm. In addition, some locally significant falls of snow could occur over parts of N Ireland and west Wales, especially on high ground. Strong winds are likely to cause drifting at times with blizzard conditions possible over high ground. Disruption to transport is possible and some roads may become impassable.
The cold, wintry spell is expected to continue for the following few days, with the possibility of persistent snow across southern counties. The early warning may be extended in subsequent issues as the risk becomes clearer.
This warning will be updated by 1200 tomorrow, Monday 27th February 2006.
:p

although the bbc say there wont be snow and are clearly spooners when it comes to knowing the simple rhyme about how many days there are in each month, or having the ability to for instance add 1 to 26 :rolleyes: they do predict temps as low as minus 6 in manc, so even if it doesnt snow it's going to be naffin cold

edit: beaten by a rabbit

BBC Weather is telling me it might get down to -5*C at nights.

Brrr...

Edit: And apparently heavy snow on Thursday! :D

God dammit, I have someone who needs to travel from Ashford to Lille on Thursday, and it would be nice if the snow appeared after that.
