snowflakey

Welcome Stormygirl, your in the wright place.

Thanks AWD,feel a lot better about things now.

Just thought Id post this snap shot from gfs, and seems to indicate a slight north of East flow along the cannel. this may do us a IOWers a better chance of snow. Sorry singularity this post was meant as a reply to your post, where you alluded to a maritime influence along the south coast, but I couldn't find it when I scrolled though.

Hope so, its all looking a bit marginal for us IOW people (IMO), but I've been wrong more times than I've been wright . Fingers crossed.

Yep, very critical to far north and we re on the warm side, direct hit and weve got a maritime influence. Just far enough south that we stay in the cold air is what we wont.

Hope so but don't think so

Thought Id get a front row seat for the up and coming snow fest Tues. Wed, but in reality being stuck in the middle of the channel in a PM air mas all seems a bit to marginal. Still would be nice to be pleasantly surprised.

Yes I to prefer the Wetterzentrale, although the map get distorted the further north you go, it looks more like a map to me, also on the ens graphs the average temp is shown as well as the ens mean.

I do think that a change to a much colder easterly set up is closer than we think, sorry this sounds a little vague, but it has been hinted at on the other model forum.

To me that's looks like a very cold HP building over Scandy, if I'm reading this wright then that's 528 blue shading and a 1030mb HP.

Thanks for the reply Offerman, I'm still quite confident that the HP will retrogress into a more favourable position, fingers crossed.

Looks quite mobile this morning with a cool zonal flow. The snap shot indicates a transient cold spell where the country is bathed in sub 528 for a short time. Let hope the models revert back to a more amplified setup latter on in the day.

Goodnight all, had a great day reading everyone's comments in hear tonight. I'm sure things will look a lot better in the morning, and the slider will improve the outlook.

Going by that graph we have just had the highest temp or the foreseeable at 6am this morning, hope so
