  1. I think most of us should see some decent snow falling, Thursday but I'm not expecting much IMBY, west of Leeds and especially anywhere with elevation (150m+) could do very well.

    Reason I say more doubtful east of leeds, it does look like slightly less could uppers feeding up this side late Thursday into Friday, with more western areas the cold perhaps been reinvigorated from slightly colder uppers digging in on the other flank.

    All does depend on the exact track, angle and amplification of thursdays low though. Also does a second system with milder air push north on Friday we do not know?

    I believe the underwhelming met office warning for low ground is because they expect everything to be shunted north as we head into Friday/ Saturday, raising the snow levels and lowering accumulations down at low levels.

    Believe you me, keep an eye on the -5 850 boundary, If the precipitation is heavy enough snow will settle nicely down to 50m, perhaps lower If we are right side of this long enough. I'm a little more optimistic for snow not turning to rain for places that have snow Friday if we don't get that big push of milder air from the south Friday, I mean it will become less cool, but under heavy precipitation with more favourable 500s, -2/3 uppers may be cold enough!

    Believe me with these 500s the snow level will come right down in heavy precipitation with uppers right side of 0.

    The bbc /met office haven't got a clue, more data updates needed, may be a T0 nowcast what will happen!

    You guys west of Leeds with decent altitude I would be very excited about this. Although small changes on future runs could have huge ramifications either way, just saying how II  see it right now.

  2. For me the last few days all the attention was on Thursday's snow potential, now we are looking at an early tasty on Tuesday for a bit of back edge snow. Just shows how snow chances can just about pop up anywhere once ya get the colder air in. Provided it isn't a straight Northerly ovcoarse lol..

  3.  Battleground Snow

    There's a lot of positive output to look at this morning, I think people are just picking out small bits of information rather than blowing their load so early on, with a whole Sunday ahead of us for discussing the weather lol.

    As you say ECM is great, more importantly we have all 3 big models singing off the same hymn sheet, GFS Average is insanely good!

    Yes furthest reaches of FI but you will struggle to find such a good AVG at that range at any time.

  4. ECM coming out, can it start a trend of bringing Thursdays's low further south, let's see.

    Excellent post from TEITS, couldn't have put it any better!

     AO-

     I know the GEM will have verification stats to back it up but for our little Island, alongside the JMA I have it down as absolutely useless, I've stopped looking at those 2 models.

    With the lag maybe the presence of it will be fully felt around 1st March.

    I can see a very blocked Northern Hemisphere over these parts in March, yes perhaps too late in the day for that pristine powder snow that lasts days, but can still get some cracking snowfalls/events.
