It's usually best to stick to the professional forecast which they nailed down the general theme. Only query was where the low went which now seems much more certain.
That other thread is hilarious. Not many impartial attempts at forecasting, just hopecasting and disappointment. Always worth a laugh for non forecaster like myself
Colder with some chances of some snow, especially in the north. I know this because the Met long range forecast says so. It could be wrong, but it's more likely than the Hope casting on the model thread
Fwiw (as it was mentioned further up) the Met Office long range forecast (11th to 20th) talking of "significant snow and heavy rain for parts of the south" and "increased chance of colder conditions and widespread snow for the UK, but also" milder and wetter interludes".
A reasonable amount of snow has fallen in NW Leeds since 8pm when the paths and roads were all clear. My side road probably got an inch or two of snow on it. Gusty too, so it's blowing around. I opened the door and it's a bit chilly in that wind.
I'd rather it not snowed, can't be bothered about it these days. That said if it's going to snow it should be proper snow
Surfaces too warm and too wet I think. It has snowed quite heavily, just not the best conditions for it to settle.
We did a quick 30 minute test and put it in for 30 mins at 16c. Cost was nearly £1.
We've no cavity wall insulation and front windows aren't double glazed. Going to be very expensive if it gets cold. So far we've not had it on, temperature has been as low as 15c.
