South West/Central Southern England Regional Discussion 20/01/13 10z------------->

Hmmmm, hope seems to be fading for the snow on Tuesday in BRizzle, slipping off SW me thinks. Next 06z will be key.

[John88B]

Morning all. I just watched the local weather forecast on the BBC and it seems the north of the region could be in for significant snow overnight and into Tuesday. With hardly any thaw since the last heavy fall, with trees, bushes and roofs still heavily laden with snow and with still a good 12cm of level snow on my back lawn, the results of another good fall could be spectacular!

Plenty of time for things to go wrong but keeping my fingers crossed!

we go snow, we got snow we got snow,..... sounding like speidi of can......thanks for all your help...We got snow yippppeeeeeee

[BARRY]

That front is sliding. Doesn't look likely to reach Plymouth.......

Not a flake so that's the second chance of snow gone

[jazzy]

Still no snow in S Devon really thought it was our time and that Cornish front might clip us. -5 dew point -3 temp and no nothing falling from the sky. Am very happy for those in Cornwall that have snow but would very much like to see a flake this winter

[festivalking]

Concur with previous comments that the front has slid into the channel but local weather still suggests it will move up to the coasts. Evil to see how that would happen but we live in hope. The radar shows Penzance is getting some snow which must be a very rare event indeed.

[George]

Still haven't seen snow in my part of Devon this winter, looks like the chance today has gone.

[somersetsnow]

Still have all our Snow in Deepest Darkest Evercreech.

[Duane S.]

More southerly tracking extent of the feature could be a good omen for the Mon/Tues much more potent feature for snow further S and W than forecast yesterday.

[Andy Bown]

From having light snow all day I have woken to the met app showing one flake in the evening!! So what ever sir fergie has to say this eve on points west i dosent include banes/west wilts.

For which day? Today or tomorrow?

Some parts of the West Country could see a real dumping tomorrow if the front moves in slowly, stalls and then retreats/slides away!

My prediction is a lot of snow across Dartmoor/East Devon/Somerset and getting less but still a fresh covering towards Wiltshire/Bath as the front reaches

this far before retreating/sliding.

[Duane S.]

NAE agrees too..

Latest local BBC weather shows most of the snow around Bristol North and SE Wales

[khodds]

Yay! I soooo hope this happens! Will GFS agree later tho...?

[Ali1977]

Could this heavy snow on tue make it towards north wilts?

[somersetsnow]

Simon Keeling has said about the poss of Snow for the SW tonight.

[dancing daisy]

Even Carol is showing a whack of snow for a lot of us, the nationals don't usually say a lot about us.

[BristolBaggie]

National BBC weather even better for West Country "significant snow" mentioned and the words "double whammy if this comes off. Ian if your up already what's your take on this. Sounds potentially quite serious.

[somersetsnow]

Well,lets hope we get a top up and some for those who didn't get any

[iceman1991]

Great looks like it will be to far west for hampshire tormorrow

[dancing daisy]

Well with approx 18 hours to go there must be some confidence in the forecast if the nationals and locals are talking about it. It's going to be a long day of weather watching.
