  1. In London to watch Manchester City at Wembley today. Went to watch a match at Fulham yesterday and got hit by a 15 minute wind blown graupel storm that blew across the Thames. At least I got to see something frozen and white falling from the sky for the first time in a while.

    Clearly you haven’t let the run finish first and no right minded soul a) believed it verbatim and b) thinks or wants a great solution for like 60 consecutive runs anyway.

    Guess I should have included :arrowhead: in my response.  a) I know that, it was sarcasm; b) I know that, it was sarcasm; c) is your sarcasm detector in need of an upgrade? :ph34r::D

    Gfs has that trash Tuesday event as the last event  of the month (with say .25 QPF ) mercifully . 

    Then on to Morch. This has been an abomination and ya maybe we see a bowling ball in March , but I’ll take the milder morch temps .

     

    So the monster storm it had at the end of the month is gone?  I'm shocked, shocked I say!

    The odd thing about cold rain in London is that it feels right.  When I was in London and Manchester (my sister studied at U of Manchester for a while), it added to the vibe to have it like 48F with -RN.  It fits all your preconceived notions of what English life is, haha.  Like being in a movie, walking down a narrow cobblestone street and ducking into a small pub for a pint to get out of the rain.

    I've been lucky a few times and had some spectacular weather, but you are correct that the cool, misty, drizzly days are so quintessentially English.  Definitely taking a risk going over in late February/Early March.  Did you get out to the Peak District when you were in Manchester?  45 minute train ride from Manchester to Edale, get off the train and it is a 10 minute walk to the start of the Pennine Way . . . and of course you pass by 2 pubs along the way!

    Going to celebrate Liverpool's title? :whistle:

    Hopefully to celebrate City's third straight Carabao Cup Title at Wembley!  Also going to the Manchester Derby the following weekend.  Oh yeah, congrats on finally winning the Premier League after 30 years!  Just kidding, they've had an incredible season.  Cheers!

    I honestly don’t kno how any snow lovers are alive and breathing in SE Areas

    this is London/ Seattle weather 

    at least 2012 had a beautiful sunny summer stretch in February 

     

    Heading to Manchester and London at the end of the month, so this is just getting me ready for what's in store!  Maybe I'll get lucky and find an early English spring, if there is such a thing.

  7. Heard a little pinging during the night, and then got up at 5:20 to 33F and rain with a wee bit of slush on the grass.  So typical for this winter.  Give me a blizzard or give me a torch . . . but I'm not expecting either.
