    Not my word of choice but.....

    Not quite - but actually the snake pass in this one or nearby

    It's the showers that form behind it once it gets lost isn't it?
  5. Frosty the Snowman
    You got mine by the looks of it

    Scottish thread has snow in the Scottish borders already, that's ahead of forecast! by some margin!! Is there a chance the sinking front could fall as snow even here?
  7. Frosty the Snowman
    Just looking in the Scottish thread and there's reports of snow as far South as the Scottish borders, to low levels. Cold air sinking quicker than expected by the looks of it, got a feeling a few of you in the North East are going to wake up to some decent snow cover tomorrow

    This could be varying out of model discussion, but has the UK ever had an event where one of those lows has both kept it's intensity and made it all the way to our shores with cold enough air , would be some snow depths from that set up.

    40cm is certainly possible from this on the hills. Nobody has suggested you'll see it in the centre of London.

    Met has re-downgraded me to dry on Sarturday nigh after a day of rain. Mins of +1C - I'll get the barbecue out.

    Shame we can't go snow-necking

    Looking at this thread it appears to have been a westerly front meeting with an existing Easterly and providing breakdown snow. Although I am sure the many on here old enough to remember it will be able to clear things up. I've heard this referred to many times as one of the holy grails for snow lovers on the West Coast, and there's a remote possibility of a rerun in the next few weeks depending on the track of the current Atlantic Low.

    Love within 20 minutes of posting this has been updated to snow in Blackburn. With the line moved westwards to somewhere between Preston and Blackburn. Imagine the closer we get to this the more confidence will increase and the further west this'll get/

    Just For Fun as I've too much time on my hands The met office have the showers tomorrow night dying somewhere around Burnely turning to sleet in Padiham and then nothingness in Blackburn. That's an incredibly westward starting point for an E'LY, which suggest to me they reckon this could deliver quite widely, will keep an update over tonight and tomorrow.

    A good segway on to this - I know most people already do but can you please check you have your height above sea level in your location - it helps distinguish how helpful a snow report is for other users in your vicinity (20m asl - complaining of no snow or low depths in the same shower that gives 2-3cm a few miles down the road, whilst someone at 600m saying their buried and the rest of us wondering what the fuss about is all too common)

    I've done everybody a snow risk map......
  17. Frosty the Snowman
    That's the insane optimist/high ground forecast. 45cm by Monday night would be some event. the more likely scenario would be 2-5cm one day and then 7/8 another - which would still give you 15cm - nothing to be sniffed at.

    The fact people down south are getting excited by 6 inches of snow just reminds me how lucky I am up here. Not moving down sarth then
  19. Frosty the Snowman
    You couldn't make this up. A northerly correction to ruin everything for us

    A streamer is a replenishing line of showers coming from the same initial disturbance out at sea (the North Sea in this case) often creating near constant barrages of precipitation for areas in their line of sight (in this case an East to West line across the country). They can be extremely localised though compared to a low pressure system which generally has a wider area.
  21. Frosty the Snowman
    Moving over here as has bot all to do with models. What's the correct way to measure snow depth then?
  22. Frosty the Snowman
    This is the ramping thread In all seriousness whilst those snow totals are unlikely they are possible in that time frame with this set up.
  23. Frosty the Snowman
    Snow prediction time..... Up to Friday 12th February at sea level near the coast for the respective region Highlands - 100-120cm Eastern Scotland - 70-90cm North East - 60-70cm Cumbria - 30-40cm Yorkshire - 60-70cm North West - 30-40cm East Midlands - 60-70cm West Midlands - 40-50cm Wales - 40-50cm East Anglia - 80-90cm South East 80-90cm South West 30-40cm Northern Ireland - 25-35cm

    Looks like a serious battleground snow event emerging for the west of the country around T150 - and barrels through to the east so quite possibly a truly nationwide snow event (a rare thing indeed) , a good way to deal with the Atlantic low I suppose. Big question is whether it remains mild afterwards or cold returns.

    Thursday - in from the SW High risk high reward scenario for a battleground breakdown
