Very held up then,. By at least 12 hours or so. Anyone convinced Thursdays front will push through as forecast, considering its warm and the air to the east is still cold and doesn't seem to want to budge. I'm not sure it's modelled right yet, I expect it to be slow and weaken. However I still think the west will win because of current jet strength.

What happened to the cold? I’ve had colder nights in late April than I have had the last 2 nights. Didn’t even have to scrape the car.

[Blazerblue]

So the few cms of snow that fell has all gone now. Absolutely bucketing it down now will hail thrown in for good measure  feels colder today than yesterday.

[Dami]

It was a very cold night dew points were or are usually low suggestive of very little moisture in lower atmosphere. Without this you’re not going to get frost even if it’s cold enough.

Thank you! Although only just dipped below 0C here. 

[Jimmyh]

yes I woke at 3 looked out and cloudy thought hmm a chance checked dew points -3 thought ahhh not good. couldn't find the wet bulb temp. I am disappointed but realistic. the ssw seems to be splinters up ya bum for fence sitting at moment. I did think back to 85 and ragin 87 and 91. Super computers blah fax charts and the basic bbc chart with Bill Giles on it    

[throwoff]

So what’s coming up next few weeks? Paging Mr Murr?

[alexisj9]

Sun is out here now, however looking at radar may have a shower come through shortly.

Showers pepped up too..

[alexisj9]

Yep, thought at first the one north of me were coming here, but I think everything is still moving nnw, how long is the front going to hang on to this far Eastern UK. Pressure has risen a lot since last night to now 1019.38 and still rising. That is what killed the ppm, started rising slowly before midnight. So really to have had any ppm what so ever this front was actually pretty strong, although it didn't seem it.

Anyone know if there is anything exciting coming up after the warmer phase as of tomorrow?

There’s a low risk of some back edge snowfall Friday morning. 

[alexisj9]

Now I'm wonder if temp and DP will keep dropping before the blog to my north gets here, didn't expect to still be radar watching lol. Temp 2.5 DP 0.5,, both were higher earlier.

Anyone under the northeasterly streamer, is it rain or snow

I’d say it’s unlikely to even have some snow currently and well GFS shows heavier precip clearing away while lighter stuff turns to snow, if it is some how slowed down then it could.

I guess you’re talking about that mess to NW, ARPEGE is definitely slow on this it breaks it up too when it gets to the point where radar is, so interesting. 

[Snowpuff]

Im under the mini streamer..its cold rain

That in the North Sea that's clippping East Kent is just cold rain, not done bad that ARPEGE with this one has it.
