The EC output for Friday would be snowier than the GEM, UKMO and GFS, but all output would give us snow on Friday. That, for me, is a big positive. The GFS and GEM solutions are basically completely similar, with the BBC forecast above trending towards that it seems- though the UKMO solution is the halfway house between the American and European output. At 96 we have a diversified range of solutions- from a formed trough to the SW on the GEM, to the slack SE flow on the EC and GFS output- UKMO a halfway house again. If I'm going to look at it from a snow POV for the NE- 72 1. ECMWF 2. UKMO 3. GFS 4. GEM 96 1. GFS 2. UKMO/ECMWF 3. GEM 120 1. GFS 2. GEM 3. ECMWF/UKMO 144 1. GEM 2. GFS 3. ECMWF 4. UKMO For substantial long-lasting cold- 1. GFS 2. GEM 3. ECMWF 4. UKMO That's how good the 12zs were... every model were giving their own take on the situation... and each take was cold and bitter!

I think she is on Netweather also with a different alias- I would agree with that assessment- particular as the ECMWF 12z has uppers below -4c over NE England for it's entirety, and plenty of precipitation-synoptics.. Scotland, N England, the Midlands the best places imo- and perhaps the South at times.

We would be cold, very cold based on the ECMWF 12z suite- it's an absolute stonker. In terms of snow, I'd say quite a bit- the progression and tilt is mainly SSE-NNW- which is very encouraging for us here- there would be some amazing totals- Dream scenario for me is- (note DREAM!!!!) Friday heavy snow here, Saturday cold and dry Sunday reinforces that cold east flow via a weak cold trough- Monday has some snow from the east- Then the rest of next week, heavy snow across central and western parts- to enhance the british view of the spell and whilst this is happening, we have our snowfields and clear skies with temps PLUMMETING .. -15c's possible on the EC suite and after the record cold, we then look at the convective NElies to end the month ay... we can dream- but the 12zs suite would all give the NE of England some significant snow and cold down the line- just in different ways... very encouraging signs... and no sign of milder weather on it's way- icy... -3.2c now, Nick, I agree, tonight is about the cold- let's get ourselves a deep frost on top of the snow

-2.4c at 1820, on top of 5cms of snow. Not bad at all. Very cold, but not snowy is how I'd sum up the next 2 days, before a return to potentially wet times. That wet will be snow, but how much is the question! It's lovely to have the question of little or lots of snow Rivers and lakes freezing over the next few days anyone? Copious snow.

Very heavy snow here, covered most surfaces, at least 2cm from this alone. Superb!

It looks quite quiet Nick, but as last night had shown, intensity can always increase. Today will be the best today for convection this week, but then tomorrow and Thursday look bloody freezing with a chance of some isolated showers, and Friday/Saturday potentially a frontal+convective snowfest! (potentially!) River Wear could easily be in danger of freezing in parts by Saturday.

It seems quite slow moving and it's only just light here, so maybe you will be- I'm starting to walk in 10 mins, so I should have some in my mates house. Mind you, it's not quite as nostalgic and momentous when a bunch of whiny teenagers, still angry at the facts they got up 10 minutes ago, school is open despite the 5cm deluge, and they have loads of coursework for IT, walk through the streets of Washington. I still love it though!

Bar 2009-10 and 2010-11, this would rank pretty highly in the 21st century scheme of things, and has plenty of life in it still. Snowing lightly here again, -0.1c.

7th snow lying day of the winter on it's way (Dec 1, 3, 6, 7, 14; Jan 14, 15) and 8th since July 1st (October snow). That's much better than last year's 4 snow lying days already! So, it's not been abysmal by any means, and we're only half way through, currently on about 120% of the average regarding snow cover. Starting to snow again, expecting to add at least a cm with this next band.. everything is adding on nicely now.

Added another 1cm last night, 4cm on the fence. North Sea doesn't look quite finished yet, big snow shower on it's way for much of the NE in the next 30 minutes.

Starting to get much colder here, -0.4c. NMM expect the upper vectors to turn N/NE tomorrow morning so I'd be looking at what is coming out off E Scotland.
