Looks like pub run is living upto it’s name tonight. All this talk about shortwaves etc is great. Because I think it was nick Sussex earlier who said move shortwaves the better. As this will cause instability in the flow. I.e lots of powder snowfall happy days. Brace yourself it’s coming :cold::cold:

Wouldn't surprise me if -20C uppers hit somewhere in Scotland on this run :shok:

Whilst I agree that the synoptics are amazing, the cold is being slowly delayed. We had the -12 850 hitting the East Coast on midday Sunday yesterday, not it's 6am on Monday. 

All that is happening are the models are slowly falling inline with the ECM which always had the coldest air coming in overnight Sunday into the Monday morning, the GFS has slowed but it was probably too fast to start with.

The coldest uppers seem to be always post 144. The Easterly seems a lot slacker with more shortwaves causing a less clean flow. Not sure we will be looking at -15 or more uppers any more. Always seems to be delayed by 6 hours then another 6 hours and so on. 

Think it depends on your point of view tbh. For most I'm sure aslong as there is enough instability to create convective showers then who cares if its -10 uppers or -15 uppers aslong as its snowing.

Obviously for those who want too see that magical -15 hitting then it may take a while and it might not at all. Again what we seeing is just another variation and the overall trend is clear that cold air will be heading our way, the questions will be how quick it will arrive and will it arrive with enough instability to create convective showers.

I know precipitation charts for snow can be purely figurative but there's enough solidity in the forecast for strong suggestion of precipitation type and general placement. The beast is clear to see, and pinches the East of England with a snowy claw. 150.  :rolleyes:

-17 uppers in the north of Scotland :cold:

No chart available for the selected hour. Many charts start at 3 hours ahead, so if you have 0 hours selected try stepping forward or selecting a later hour.

Incredible, don't think I've ever seen that before for my location.

Well the high is significantly further north on the 18z at 168hrs onwards, plus brutal cold getting into Scotland!

I am also getting annoyed by the delay - don't get me wrong, it looks sensational...but I'm becoming more of a nervous wreck with each run!

Cold shot core punches further north on this over Scotland, still very cold across the whole country . Location of the cold pool will shift from run to run but at least we are still getting the main thrust.

Getting mighty close to the point where we can have real confidence of a signifcant cold spell.

Now that's a very strong SE flow with -14/-15 uppers, if you don't get convective snow showers from that in the SE...

Jeez.....there is no problem. I was merely pointing out that today the cold is more delayed on this run compared to the same run yesterday.

I'm not bigging up mild weather or claiming this ain't going to happen just pointing out a fact.

Really is like swimming in a pool of piranahs in here sometimes!
