it will only be as accurate as the gfs precip charts !!!!

Thanks, I know, and I still want to test it for accuracy! Won't be scientific but will definitely be fun.

Alaska seems to have finally filled in too.

There should a pixel or two over highlands and pennine locations today.

The pixels are there, just need to zoom right in!

[Katrine Basso]

Slow but steady increase in the sea ice cover.

Just lovely to see the white pixels in the UK at this time of year. Hopefully. they will be there from now till april!!!

First sea ice creeping into the northern edge of Hudson Bay now.. Seems to be earlier than the other years above.

I would also expect to see the Alps highlighted  as it has been snowing down there recently.

Looking good for the UK, lovely accumulations everywhere.

Bank this picture, very few occasions in the past 3 winters we had similiar images, and this at 10 November!

Big melt on the SW extent but big gains in Northern china and also some in Europe.

Latest weekly Arctic sea ice extent update here

[Ross Andrew Hemphill]

More gains in Europe, along with a big increase in ice towards Alaska.

By the way, you can use this zoom to see the UK snow extent ( resolution 1km ) :

(it is exactly the same data as the previous NOAA map you have shown)

Most of South Poland and Mountains in Slovakia  now covered, snowing all day yesterday there,missed my Ryanair Flight to Belfast from Krakow! Took me 5 hours to drive from Tatra Mountains 100km to airport,will have to do it again on Tuesday! Firstly annoyed but then realised that in UK and Ireland I will probably never experience something like this

[Turnedoutniceagain]

Lots of UK pixels - nice to see in November. Snow creep further West through Europe by the day

[myleon73]

Its a beautiful sight.

Looking good for the UK, lovely accumulations everywhere.

The Ice is on a roll & the snow accumulations, will be a massive increase for both in two weeks time.

Bookmarked. Thanks, SylvainTV.

Again no advance into Canadian plains.

But sea ice slight increase

Our near neighbours in Scandinavia are covered in snow, but the Atlas Mountains in Morocco have more snow pixels than the UK

Here is a closer look at Snow cover situation in Europe

As a matter of interest when was the last time the Baltic was at least half frozen over?
