Still looks like heavy snow on Sunday to me?

There hasn't been that large of a shift from the gfs, the mod thread keep looking at the worst precipitation models ever invented to top it off though.

Oh yeah I know mate. Referring to his forecast. Not so confident regarding Sunday sadly. I feel tomorrow may deliver if the Irish sea gets going. Been known to really get provide the goods, remains to be seen what will happen but having a trough knocking about can only help

The South of the region looks good so far but hopefully it'll include more of you lot to join in. Still time to change but Knowing our luck it'll probably be rain especially on the coasts lol

Forget the apps and focus on the radar for tomorrow. Activity in the Irish sea is already increasing.

Oh yes of course. The thing is as great as this hobby is watching the models, when the met office have contradicted a huge model hype they'e not often wrong. The Irish sea is certainly picking up, do you know when the westerly element kicks in?
