I do hope that it is an Easterly being in a bit of a rain shadow from the North. Same for many of us I suspect away from North facing coasts and areas without any hills to their North.

Easterly/northeasterly 

[damianslaw]

Given the volatile changes taking place - its right for the Met Office to cover themselves in the medium timeframe - a wintry mix is about as far as you can go, snow chances more so in the north. Not sure about mention of just rain on Friday, in the north more likely snow.

[damianslaw]

The latest forecast - shouts heights to the north or more so NW - low pressure possibly trying to make inroads from the SW, but coming unstuck against the heights - battleground snowfall territory, with the north always in the cold air, and low heights forced to sink away south again..

‘cold or very cold’ - I like that very much!

UK Outlook for Friday 18 Jan 2019 to Sunday 27 Jan 2019:

It will be mostly settled for a time on Friday, especially in the east, before thickening cloud and outbreaks of rain, perhaps with some hill snow, try to move eastwards later, with strong winds. The rain and hill snow will make further eastward progress on Saturday, perhaps with northeastern areas staying dry. Thereafter, it looks set to remain mainly cold, unsettled and sometimes windy, with gales possible in the north. Any milder spells will tend to be brief, and associated with longer spells of rain. The rain could turn to snow almost anywhere, but particularly across northern and central areas, especially later in this period. Some drier, brighter spells are likely, perhaps with snow showers, especially in the east. During such spells, frost could become widespread and severe.

UK Outlook for Monday 28 Jan 2019 to Monday 11 Feb 2019:

For the end of January and into early February, there is an increased likelihood of cold weather being established across all of the UK, with temperatures continuing a downward trend to become cold or very cold. This would bring a greater risk of snow, ice and widespread frost, particularly across northern parts of the country. However, there remains uncertainty over the extent of the cold weather and how long it will last, and it is still possible that some milder and wetter interludes will intersperse this generally cold period, especially in the south.

If memory serves, severe frost is within  -6c -to -11c range.

UK Outlook for Saturday 19 Jan 2019 to Monday 28 Jan 2019:

Outbreaks of rain, sleet and some snow are likely to move slowly south and eastwards on Saturday, but tending to become lighter and more patchy as it does so. Sunday looks generally quiet, with a good deal of dry and bright weather. Thereafter, it looks set to remain mainly on the cold side, but also unsettled and sometimes windy, with gales possible in the north. Any milder spells will tend to be brief, and associated with longer spells of rain. The rain could turn to snow at times, particularly across northern, central and eastern areas, especially later in this period. Some drier, brighter spells are likely, perhaps with snow showers, during such spells, frost could become widespread and severe.

'to become cold or very cold' looks to be the only part they've removed from the update

[karyo]

I was expecting worst to be honest.

Yes, it looks like that upward trend at the end of the ensembles is definitely not just a blip.

[mountain shadow]

Won't be long before the cold is postponed to mid-February.

[northwestsnow]

Another excellent update for coldies:-)

[ICE COLD]

Nice update again

[winterof79]

removed the "almost anywhere" bit for snowfall

[northwestsnow]

Again, sounds good to me..

[PLANET THANET]

Not looked at the models today but judging by some comments here would suggest they have not been great this morning?

It was only tautology anywho, whenever it's cold enough for snow and severe frosts, it's 'cold or very cold' by definition.
