My best streamer chance would be of the North Coast tip of The Netherlands and curling down on a ENE, 2010 kept one going for hours, sadly probably not for me this time.

Anything is possible but highly unlikely to that extent. 

GFS precip charts are useless. Stick with High res, Hirlam etc...

Still chasing the charts at 144 and beyond in the mod forum. could be July and some of them would still be looking for an easterly to bring snow.......just give up guys ! lol.  Hopefully this weekend we might see a little something white falling from the sky......

GFS has been quite bullish on this showers off North Sea going well inland merging into longer spells of snow in places across the country. We see a more unstable atmospheric makeup on that day - with quite a lot of moisture available to be tapped into across our region. In my personal opinion I  think most if not all will see some snow falling a very good chance. A winter wonderland well that's unlikely but you never know... :p:good:

High res NMM gives a Kent Streamer.

Some heavier snowfalls in the next few days wouldn't surprise me at all before temps recover to 6-8 degrees for a few days next week. Looking likely now that spring will be put on hold for a few weeks after the milder blip.

Arpege also suggesting that showers will form into lines coming into our Region on the ENE wind, starting Friday evening and continuing right through Saturday. So the combination of 850hPa temperatures around -7C and North Sea SST's around +7C enough to generate some convection and light precipitation.

This evening's GFS and Arpege 12z output both show that all the prerequisites (850, DP and 2m temps) for snow later Friday and into early Saturday are favourable. But both models go on to show 2m temps rising a couple of degress above 0C as Saturday progresses, particularly near coasts, so I believe our best opportunity for seeing a dusting of snow settle is overnight Friday into early Saturday morning, when temps will be at their lowest.

Snow accumulation at 07.00 Saturday:

Ha ha..! When the models don't live up to their expectations they spit out their dummies.. It's been going on since I joined up and it's always the same culprits. :)

Yes, Louise Lear on this evening BBC 1 TV forecast mentioned temps recovering to around 5C Saturday and 6-7C Sunday 

Best chance (although slim) Friday night to see a few flakes.

First temperatures were supposed to recover on Monday, then Sunday and now Saturday!  This so called upcoming cold snap really is a dead loss.  Hardly worth even mentioning!
