Princetown Dartmoor? 1430ft asl but I am worried that the snow won't travel this far west.

Maybe I should ask santa for a channel low! :D

Everywhere in the UK has exactly a 50% chance of snow.....ie either it will, or it wont.....easy, no GFS/ECM/METO charts needed to work that one out!....

Sorry :D:) I'll fetch my coat

Cant we just keep this in the cold spell discussion thread? Don't want to confuse matters.

Seems to be working pretty well and may get a few others debating instead of holding back !ph34r.gif

what about wouth west wales?

Temps, dew points, upper 850's wont be the problem, precipitation may be. It all depends how far the showers penetrate inland.

I can give a rough guidance on the areas that will see showers from this type of setup, as i'm rather experienced with this type of setups living on the E coast.

One thing i cannot be certain about is organised bands of precipitation in the form of "troughs" which would no doubt be able to penetrate further inland, depending on it's movement.

what are the chances of snow in cambridge / stansted airport area

Extremely good.

It's only 50/50 if no one want's to call it.

I'll stick my neck out, and clearly if no charts are needed to predict 50/50, may i ask what the hell your looking at lol!

Any joy for Hexham Lewis?

A potent easterly usually delivers for this area, Hexham is obviously further inland than where I am but usually the snow showers reach there. If Newcastle gets 10cm I'd expect Hexham to get 5 or 6cm, its that sort of a ratio.

The question is, will there be enough precipitation up here or will it be SE focused? With events like this we may not know until the day before - last February isolated snow showers were forecasted for anywhere away from the NE England and around the Thames, in actual fact whilst these areas saw the most many other areas also got heavy snow showers and a fair covering.

Not sure why people are asking whether it will snow at a particular location, that really is a tough one to call at this stage but generally, if you live anywhere in the north east of England, north east Midlands, EA or towards the south east, your chances of snow are quite high given the latest output. Further south and west the snow risk decreases simply because the airflow is not strong and precip will struggle to make its way inland, but nevertheless, I would expect the northern and western parts of the Midlands to also get snow. Whether it is good snow will depend on the exact airflow that will sweep over the country and other location factors such as elevation.

There really is no need to answer every 'will it snow?' question, eastern regions are most at risk from significant snowfall through Thursday and Friday.

You seem to be missing the point of the the thread! ................... WILL IT SNOW??ph34r.gif

AND whilst i`m ranting, snow does not STICK, it settles......................yahoo.gif

Pah! I hate the 18z map - although I love you for posting them.

Stay confident folks - the synoptics are great and the snow chance will change by the hour pretty much. Every snow event I've known over the last few years has been down to last minute radar watching.

P.S. the netweather radar is rather ace and for a couple of quid, it's worth it for a month of constant snow watch :-)

Cant wait to see how it all pans out!!!

Though, it's one thing living in the SE and enjoying the snow - however, it always causes total CHAOS!!!

Look forward to hearing accusations this year of people being ill prepared etc etc blah blah blah!! Can we beat my personal UK record of 1ft 2ins measured in Feb this year......who knows!! HAHA! Bring it on!!
