I have to agree with you there.

Nothing like the old symbols IMO.

1987 style but -3c max shown on 3 days in the west is as impressive as it gets.

yes, was the best,

Raining in Aberdeen

I always assumed there should be impartiality in there.  Thought the 'come to me blizzard conditions' were meant for the regional threads.  There's always some southerner saying something about a 'correction' in other words the model they're posting is suiting their location.  Bloomin' bunch of IMBYs...

I wish someone in there would explain the use of "correction" - because if it means the models said A, then switched to B, then changed back again to A, then saying the models have corrected to A would be perfectly fine... 

I *think* that's what they mean - most of the cases I've seen seem to be that situation, but nobody ever actually explains it, do they?

Should be -10 by now

Thanks. I've just been out with the dog. He wasn't impressed! It feels quite cold in the breezier spots.

Midlands? or Aberdeen in Scotland, was meant to rain a bit kind of to introduce the beast, beast behind that, early hours it arrives

Still a bit early to say with great confidence. The charts currently suggest snow - and lots of it - but details won't be firmed up until closer to the time.

IF that comes off, it would be a truly major event. Full on blizzards for the most densely populated areas of the UK during the working week, including places where it doesn’t snow very often. Could even be a spell of freezing rain in the south. Surely red warnings. London is awful even in a small fall of snow.

lol to be honest I was just trying to wind up 'Atlantic 252'...............he's not exactly her greatest fan for some reason, IIRC

ICON brings snow much further north than 12z. Heaviest snow in North Midlands
