So far this 'Winter', in the 'Bont', there hasn't been any ice, let alone snow to speak of; and this goes back at least 6 years.
Only interminable weeks of grey skies and pissing it down.
I know cold weather messes normal life up, but I would dearly love some weather like in my 70's and early 80's youth.
Winters should be Winters; which makes Spring and Summer so dear. |  |

We did have the beast from the east two years ago, but apart from that I agree, depressing weather. |  | | |

Even when the Beast form the East 'struck' it was a mite chilly here, but we had hardly any snow, and it melted immediately. | |

You need to move up here if you want snow |  |

I work near cowbridge and I couldn't get there for almost a week when the beast struck. Goes to show how different the microclimates in each town can be. Porthcawl as always had very little though [Post edited 7 Jan 2020 23:53]

I've only used my frost cover for my car 4 or 5 times since Oct.
Very , very wet. Farmers can shut the fúck up if we have a fortnight of hot weather in July. |  | | |

Don't think we've had decent snow fall in about 8-10 years. Only a bit of snow in the black mountains, Brecon beacons.
Apparently it's coming next week but I can't see it. We'll be seeing news articles online warning us that this summer is going to be the hottest ever soon anyway. |  |

Fully agree with you , 40 years ago I was on strike and opted for the night spots as I had 1 young child and my wife was expecting, froze my rollocks everytime and was wrapped up like Scott of the Antarctic .
We came home early from a holiday late September as it started to rain, don't think its stopped since. A good cod spell is needed. |  | | |

Winter starts on 1st December and ends on 29th February. Technically we are 39 days into Winter.
December 21st is the Winter solstice not the start of Winter. | |

Winter solstice is the start of the astronomical winter. The date you refer to is the start of the meterological winter , which the weather ppl use for their classifications | | | |

Correct astronomical refers to astronomy.
Meteorological refers to actual weather. | |

Correct. Which is why i referred to the astronomical winter. From lifetime experience i have always found the weather to be colder with more chance of snow and easterly winds up until mid march rather than in December. | | | |

Visit fabulous Swansea 300 rainy days a year. Totally depressing and soul destroying. We all need a certain amount of sun to lift our spirits and provide us with the necessary vitamin D. | | | |

Your not far out there mate, I've just googled it as a matter of interest.Check this sh!t out,..............
In Swansea, United Kingdom, during the entire year, the rain falls for 201 days, and collects up to 999.2mm (39.3") of precipitation.
1m of water from FFS.  |  | | |

I was in Bergen in Norway during the summer. The city is believed to be the wettest in Western Europe with around 200 rainy days per year. What surprised me is that the locals love it when it rains because the rainfall powers hydroelectric stations and the more it rains the more money back they get on their bills. Some good reverse psychology there. |  |

Had to travel to Cornwall the Saturday after the beast from the east.
The motorway was pretty much clear until you hit Bridgend, then was restricted to two lanes all the way down the M4 and including the M5 until we got to Exeter.
By the time we got to Bodmin there was absolutely no snow at all.
