Go here. Choose UK Snow risk. You can see there is a moderate risk for NE coast from 3am, then a higher risk for North Yorkshire after 7am. TBH its going to take a change in the predicted wind direction for showers to hit NE coast. Be very lucky to get even one here.... Check this again at about 10pm tonight...

You can see in the charts the wind direction buckling to what looks like a true northerly for a time in the early hours... before shifting to a NW later in the day. The devil will be in the detail! If it does make a northerly, how long for will determine which parts get some snow. I would not be expecting anything inland at all. Coastal regions favoured. Especially N.Yorks.

We are in the warm sector. Colder air is already in S.Scotland heading south. Watch the radar as the transition in forecast to bring a band of precipitation down with 100% chance of being snow by midnight (according to gfs!) Then before Friday, FAX chart showing chance of a couple of features which could bring some snow....

Problem with this blast is its not been a direct Northery. More of a NNW'ly. Problem with an easterly is the airmass needs to be very cold to get snow on the areas 10 miles or less from the coast (unless you have elevation). IMO the very best direction for snow showers is a direct northerly OR even better NE'ly where you get streamers forming (2010). The airmass does not need to be as cold to get snow right along the coast. Only issue would be if you are well inland!!!

Well at least there are no fires to light for the just stop oil protestors this year... at least in the UK

Just read the netweather summer forecast. July is the exact opposite of what actually happened. Whats the point? Why almost every time when I read the Model Output Discussion does someone say "The models are struggling at the moment".... Aren't they always at some point in the timeline?
