ROFLMAO

So the coldest week for 7 years and you have just started looking for signs of spring.

 

Why what's wrong with that? A practically nationwide snow event that will affect everyone apart from those in north west England! He has every right to be done with winter and look forward to spring. This winter has been bloody awful in terms of not living to potential and all the let downs we have had.

Aparently a woman rang th e BBC asking if it will snow  in NW , they said F**k Off...........

[Day 10]

Seriously mate, not worth worrying about. I take precipitation charts with a pinch of salt 

What does concern me is, if the Lp continues to move south. I fear it will be a midlands south event only.

I know mate

Hasn’t happened or not happened yet and the northwest is a large area.

I enjoy seeing exciting Synoptics like this play out whether I get a big snowfall or not. That is why I joined a weather forum

UKMO FAX chart which I do rate in the short-range period i.e. 48 hours, shows the frontal shallow low feature moving right through the region Tuesday morning, a northward correction, not south. This is backed up by most other models, yes there will be a Pennines effect, but I suspect muted. However, we won't know for certain its exact path until this time tomorrow.

Exactly! And the exciting cold synoptics don't look at the calendar.

Yes not bettered here since, however, that was a very different set up, an active occluded front which stalled over the region coming unstuck against a cold block. Those are the best set ups for heavy snowfall over the NW, especially Cumbria.

I'm thinking more back to 26/27 Jan 96 when we managed 5 inches from a convective easterly and frontal feature from the east.

We can receive significant snow when fronts move in from the south as well and become slow moving as suggested end of the week, then the cold air remains at the surface and often the cold hits back from the north, 23 Feb 1994 springs to mind here.. 1 ft of snow.
