I'll have both, if you're paying Gord!  :drunk:

 

Nice vibes in this thread tonight, in direct contrast to the infamous MOD thread - can't even be bothered to venture in there tonight. I'd rather keep my sanity intact, thank you very much.

very exciting and to be fair thats not surprising cos that nmm chart has a pretty potent line of snow crossing us tomorrow morning! !

 

I might, just might, get up early and take a look. I love my lie ins, but possibly love snow even more.   :yahoo:

clear as a bell, -2.5C, my look on models looks like the UKMO and ECM are too far east, looks like leading edge snow Tuesday evening, then rain for Wed, we are on the wrong side of the slider

 

GFS looks the snowiest, but likely a massive eastward shift on 18Z, to match other 2 models

Considering models always shift everything miles and miles further west/south west last minute I still wouldn't be surprised if the weather front never reached us at all and we end up with high pressure or an easterly of some kind.

So, if it does snow tonight, won't it melt tomorrow with temps of 4'c?

 

I need snow that sticks for at least 2 days, anything else just makes me mourn for what could have been, I so hate that 'drip drip' :-(

Snow can take longer to thaw if the ground temperature is still cold...regardless of air temperature (within reason of course...13C airmasses would of course wipe it out pretty quick!).

 

If there is snow lying tomorrow...providing temps don't get much higher than predicted...there should still be a cover by nightfall. Of course if there is only a thin layer than the sun will get to work on it quickly anyway.

 

Met Office probability for snow here never gets above 50% over the next few days for when it does appear in the forecast. A good enough reason to stay calm and take each day at a time. I suppose we'll find out soon enough!

Hey everybody!!! :-D

 

Heres hoping for some snow!! I'm in Nottingham (south of Nottingham in Long Eaton) and see that the majority in here are West Mids!! I do hope some snow gets to me, I've been watching the ever changing charts!! But I see that there is lots of wowing at MetO forecasts so I suppose I'd better pop over there and have a look too!! 

 

Oh, and I shall be on wine tonight :-D

Thanks S....been in the MOD thread and strat thread mostly (most of the time no clue about what they're going on about!!). At least we have a fairly accurate weather station page on Wellesbourne airfield to check the actual temps. Most of the time it's 2 or 3 deg c above what the forecast says.

Welcome! I'm just down the road from you in Tiddington and I know the feeling!
