WHERE IS THE SNOW IN SUNDERLAND?
There was a light dusting around 5am this morning at Stanley. Was quite slippy too.

It had all gone by the time I drove through at around 6:30am.
RE: Weather - Ds1197 - 13 Jan 2017

Yep. There's a bit on the car. Nowt to get excited about like, but enough to freeze solid.
Husband's getting his hair cut for the first time in 6 months, tomorrow. He'll have a cold head.

I shoudnt be moaning I suppose, I'm off for half of Friday and off the whole week after for work experience, And the weekend after is the Bank Holiday weekend so ive got a few more days off to come
RE: Weather - BusLoverMum - 26 Apr 2017
Husband has a few days off. He's alternating between painting and emailing the person he mentors at work who is struggling with something. I was glad of him being off when it hailed all afternoon, on and off, yesterday.
Michael will be jealous because we had a layer of snow, this morning.

Ours disappeared as soon as the sun came out. Still needed my gloves, this afternoon.
RE: Weather - BusLoverMum - 27 May 2017
So, we cleverly managed to avoid the worst of the weather, today, but it seems there's been a twister in Darlo and flash flooding in Stanley, with Asbo and the bus station flooded and a sink hole opening up on Durham road, meaning the 16 is having to be diverted.
We just got pelted with dead blossom, waiting in the wind for the 20A in Houghton

I bet you have the met office app on your phone - failing to prepare and all that

I have more that the met office app. I've got the netweather storm radar which shows you exactly where there rain is (as of 10 minutes ago!) How heavy it is and which direction it's travelling, as well as the location of all lightning strikes in the past hour.
I've got one for snow, too
RE: Weather - Michael - 27 May 2017
I was at Hamsterley Forest today and i got caught in a thunderstorm, and the rain was really heavy, (even seen some fork lightning) luckily we had just started our walk so we went back to the car, we were still soaked through.
RE: Weather - BusLoverMum - 30 Nov 2017
Winter, innit.
RE: Weather - BusLoverMum - 30 Nov 2017
Even Michael might get some.

good ol' netweather. I have a skylight window (diagonal), and there's nothing to see due to snow cover. My room is dark as a result. It's like an igloo.
Weather - Jamie M - 30 Nov 2017
Normally can see far out of the window --

They have a downside!
Gne reporting lots of parts of East Durham they can't serve. Arriva silent as ever, but I've seen 2 buses get through in 2 hours.
RE: Weather - BusLoverMum - 30 Nov 2017
Whehey! A bus just went past!
Husband's having to pick littlun up from school because I've had no means of getting there.
Weather - Jimmi - 30 Nov 2017
Some people can't seem to comprehend the fact it's snowing, was waiting for a bus to Aycliffe in Darlington at 13:55, rejected a busy 7 after checking the app to see the 19 that would become my 5 was on time, at this point some woman starts whinging about the fact that the 13:50 service 8 to Spennymoor hadn't turned up yet and started saying that it was a joke that it wasn't here, "they've taken it off" etc, could have told her it would be 37 minutes late arriving into Darlington but she would probably have only start whinging even more. In the end she boarded my 5 to Bishop Auckland and kept moaning.
After boarding the 5 the weather looked a bit like this.

YouTube or You've Been Framed.
If I was caught on CCTV performing a spectacular slip and fall in the snow earlier on, my next media appearance may be earlier than I thought.

Husband ended up skidding in spenny. I'd be surprised if the 8 could keep time at all.

That's why I used my stick when I trudged down to the surgery, earlier (only to find my prescription wasn't ready)

Durham tweeted that they'd be out from 5am and, despite the fact that it's snowing again, things are passing our house (on a hill) without problem. They probably have a much bigger gritting budget than Sunderland, mind, what with all the hills.
Had some blooming loud thunder, around midnight.
