Rain patchy here in North Essex, wind not to bad, just enough to move trees that still have some leaf. Been looking at conditions in Tromso in North Norway. And it should be a -30c at this time of year..but...it's a Plus 4c. Something is seriously going wrong with the weather.

The rampers can be found on the Model thread. they are all ways looking 10 days plus charts, and they never come off , Stick with the five day met.office charts, they are more accurate my brother lives on the North Lincolnshire coast, and has just reported showers moving in from the sea are of rain......

Funny old Day , -1c here this morning, and it rained. We are not in a good set up at the moment for any snow. North sea is above average temperature, I did see it mentions that it 2c warmer than the average. Plenty of winter days ahead

Yes an Easterly is incoming. But no snow, the air has a mix of warmer European air. Also the North Sea, is above average temperature at the moment This will result in Rain I am afraid

I am an old Walthamstow Boy, and remember the winter of 1962/63...Great fun that was, but poor old milkman trying to get round and big queue for the paraffin man..Remember BBC now get their forecasts from Meto , but the met office with their massive computers in Exeter all ways seem to come out on top. Just heard that the Beast from the East has booked his UK ticket.

New updated long range from Met Office Likely remaining cold throughout this period with the risk of wintry hazards. It will be dry at times, with the driest and clearest conditions likely in the west and northwest, and showers likely further east. These showers often wintry with hill snow but with a chance of snow falling to lower-levels at times. There is potential for spells of more organised precipitation, accompanied by stronger winds to move north from the continent into southern and central areas. Additionally, there is also the potential for precipitation to move into northern areas if high pressure declines. Both scenarios could bring an associated snow risk particularly over hills. Temperatures are likely to be below average bringing the risk of frost and freezing fog along with very cold overnight temperatures over any snow cover. Updated: 16:00 (UTC) on Tue 29 Dec 2020

Not sure how many on here remember the winter of 1962/63. But if you want to see a real Winter go to YouTube , search winter 62/ 63. Sit back and enjoy the snow.

From across the pond...one foot of snow dumped on Niagra..in one hour..First of the season. From my brother in law who said it's right on time.

The Hurricane Center has Lorenzo heading to the West of Ireland and up towards Iceland. At this stage it looks like the UK will get strong winds from its southerly track.

All the charts are at The Hurricane Center. just do a search for the site

Not much rain here today. Had a short spell around midday, but then a dry afternoon. It is very light rain at the moment, but the main feature of the day has been how cool it's been.
