the mod thread is terrible to much bias and imby they only see what they want to and are always left with egg on there faces they ramp things up to much and then moan when things dont come off

Depending on which reckoning you prefer, its about 7 weeks to spring !!...

You're not wrong.. I gave up posting in the model thread for this reason, and also because my one liners where being mistaken for wind ups. Still If you watch the models alot, you get a hint of when models are right and models are wrong.. All to often the best way to resolve whether a model is right or wrong, is to use your instinct.. overanalysis will results in analyses that aren't always correct.

Already a covering in some places/S Wales sleet/snow showers also in parts of Ireland

Interesting, it's 6.0C here at the moment with the wind off the estuary, but dewpoint is 0.7C, so probably showers would be of rain and hail.

26th January and still havent had one wet snow flake all winter!

[SparkleS]

Clearing skies here, i think, temp 9 degrees! Lol its got warmer after 5 and 6 degrees today...so no chance!

[Mokidugway]

Wind picked up quite a lot in last ten minutes or so , need to get step ladders out to change batteries in weather station sensor , but not tonight !!...

Thursday had first flakes here that ive seen, was pretty heavy and laid but saw first flakes in mossley in early december....hoping as many as possible get a covering tonight, myself included....as with showers though unpredictable and radar watch mixed with curtain twitching....roast eaten, fire on and wine now poured.....Just checked temp its 1c and clouded over.... Wind is lightest its been all day... Edited January 26, 2014 by WillinGlossop

the temps don't have too be low for it to snow, look at last year for example it was 4C and it was snowing heavily. It only need dew point to drop low enough to snow. It is 6C right now and who knows what it will bring tonight.

[itsnowjoke]

Well its not snowing here well I am suprised NOT....off for beer......

[I Cumbria Marra I]

It gets better.............Cornwall, Cardiff, Bristol, Swindon and loads of other places in the SW are reporting snow   . Time out.

I'm surprised there is any discussion left in there at all - the mods seem to find new excuses of what is "acceptable" and what isn't. I know many who have stopped posting in there. Once I got a warning PM purely because "I posted a mild chart and most people are looking for cold and it was cherry picked"

 

Yet these mods (no offence) talk about recognising peoples different weather tastes and respecting them.......so with me being me I had a right go at the moderator lol.

 

Then you have the drama queens who seem to need anti-depressants through no snow "Winter is over!" .......

Overall it's a decent forum but a lot of people on here spoil it.

 

Anyway tonight I reckon some in our region will see a covering but it won't last long even at height. As the colder uppers get mixed out again before sunrise.

[WillinGlossop]

Interesting could it be heading this way.....ie heavy more persistent precip.....dare i say snow?

[Mokidugway]

Rarely bother with m o d , rather look at charts and try and work it out for myself , as others have said to much imbyisum and ramping for my liking !!...

[SparkleS]

Ive read it wrong lol its actually 5.7 degrees, getting windy, feels cold and some clouds rolling in covering the clear skies

[bridgechad]

4.5oC  dp 2.2oC so that needs to drop a fair bit more yet to be in with a chance tonight! 

[WillinGlossop]

1c dew -0.5c....hoping something white and snowy falls here....showers are pepping up in the irish sea..... Looking good people....

[itsnowjoke]

[SparkleS]

Maybe they are looking for snow too and have heard that the higher u are the better chance of snow;)

[Mokidugway]
