  1. belting down here now, got about 1cm already. heaviest stuff's not even here yet!
  2. just to calm any fears anyone has, the 18z GFS is showing pretty much whats on the radar. don't take the snowfall charts as gospel- they are just an estimation and don't really take into account streamers etc. temps are forecast as staying just above freezing for much of the region (although some are reporting minus figures which is good) until about midnight, when the s-easterly picks up and knocks the temps down. DP's are below zero. (its 1.8c DP -1.6c, higher than some, here at the moment and snowing lightly) so no worries about marginality. the Meto have been pretty much spot on (at short range at least) lately and they have amber warnings out for us! so far, its looking good. everything on target, game on!
  3. very light snow here in horsham, temp 1.6c DP -2.0c........
  4. i'm hoping to wake up with 12 inches in the morning. sadly i think it will still be the same size...
  5. i'd say stays the same or moves slightly west but thats not in the options!
  6. here's a thought- what if the snowfall is so heavy it brings down power lines and knocks out the internet...... no netweather??????
  7. looking good for friday then, GFS has moved closer to the UKMO. game on!!!
  8. we dont want that! that would put us in a south-westerly flow.- cold but only northern parts of the country might see snow, we would just get rain.
  9. i think its a 'kink' in the airflow which seems to have created a kind of 'eddy current'. maybe the winds are moving a little faster than forecast you can see it on the wind charts-
  10. interesting little feature in the north sea at the moment- http://www.sat24.com/gb almost looks like a small LP system. or a mini hurricane! lol
  11. you could well be right- as thats what the forecast says....
  12. as steve says, we need temperatures to drop. as john says, they could well do as the north-easterlies kick in. timing is crucial, nothing is guaranteed. but.... fingers crossed.....
