TETIS - looks like you are on first. Large area of showers now in the Wash making a line for Peterborough. Showing up as sleet at the moment but will presumably change to snow.

For myself - I'm watching that larger shower that has just left Norwich as sleety rain and turned to snow around Diss.

Seriously ignore the BBC forecasts beyond 2 days. All the models are pointing to freezing cold weather, with the potential for snow come monday and tuesday.

I would too say that, on Monday they forecasted snow for today and look what happened? I agree with you that the snow showers are likely to first fall on Tuesday, probably a day earlier in North East Scotland. Great potential for significant snow. Best to take it one day at a time

Do you think there will be enough moisture around? Not going to stay in this so called dry cold air are we? Hope you are right and things start to happen clap.gif

Temperature steadily rising here in Lowestoft it's now 4.44c so I can leave my thermal underwear at home for the walk up to the pub later, that should please my old man.

The smell of kippers blowing in the wind :clap::)

Looks like the NMM model is going to be right over the BBC tonight. A very nice cluster of showers entering the Wash.

Yep BBC do use the UKMO as they are affiliated with the Met Office, and UKMO stands for "United Kingdom Meteorological Office"

Looking at the way showers have been grouping in the central North Sea and moving down towards East Anglia I am optimistic about falling out of the pub to watch the fireworks in some snow here in Harwich. I have seen how they tend to fade out due to less convection at night but they do seem to have a bit of persistence this evening.

Radar is odd. Shows some convection getting going just off the north sea near the Wash coming TOWARDS the UK, but then if you flash forward on the FutureRadar it shows it actually moving AWAY from us. Bizarre!
