From what I can see it’s looks very warm Friday in the CI’s forecasts here backing the idea that it warms, had been showing a forecast of sleet and 4c early this morning now showing rain and a max of 9c and a SW wind. 

But with east F7 and snow on the Thursday max of 4c which had been sleet same time 24 hours before. Wednesday a cold SE wind dry max 1c , that has been consistent for days. Tuesday NE snow showers 2c.  

Could all be different tomorrow, I shall just enjoy any snow that happens to appear!

Please post tweets in the model tweets thread not in here, the reason we ask this is precisely what just happened (with the now deleted posts), a short tweet is often open to interpretation, which leads to misinformation and chinese whispers doing the rounds through the thread.

GFS 0z shows this also, turns back to rain readily then onwards though as the mild air is introduced

6 days away still. Reading to much into the specifics of these charts surely?
I think we see the trend for questions over the event toward the south, will it be rain or snow or something in between?  ...Will the event occur as its currently forecast? Probably not imo, it is still too early to call at this stage.
I will hold fire to see whether the models come to (or continue to come to) agreement in a day or twos time before taking gospel in those chart cherry-picking for Friday. 
I for one am very interested to see how this all develops!  Models are, after all, subject to change - interesting runs ahead!

An obvious error with the coding for precipitation-type graphics there.

Yep, but it must be correct!!

 It has snow for the south coast and the Midlands:D

Let’s see where we are by tonight.

The actual block is expected to head further west but you only need a small correction in where the low goes to bring quite different conditions.

There’s been some corrections this morning from the outputs which have improved slightly from last night in terms of snow.

As long as you maintain that surface flow from the east even if the 850s become less cold it will still be cold at the surface .

Wouldn't the surface cold be enhanced by lying snow ? I am not sure how much the models factor this in.

An improvement from the GFS, a slightly better angle of attack with a slightly more elongated low allowing for a more easterly component to reduce the advancement of the milder 850hPa temperatures north.

Many parts in the East especially, but also other areas, would be cut off if this output is anywhere near correct, quite incredible charts. Model watching will never be quite the same again after all this.

Latest runs seem to be showing a very Snowy Thursday for the SW , This is before Fridays possible event and shows as all Snow .

With the jet stream so far south why are the lows not going south with the jet ?

That chart looks pretty savage for the West and Wales though despite the potential brevity

It's game over for the far south, pretty much unanimous agreement amongst the GFS and ECM ensemble suites for a fast warm up, I mean... anyone who can't see that in the GFS ensembles is in serious denial, people will say it's a 6 days away but we've seen once the GFS and ECM suites are onboard at this range they aren't often wrong.

 

Question for the more intelligent ones regarding the SSW, as it was a record reversal do you think to some extent that is what is shooting the coldest uppers straight through us at a vast rate of knots as the cold pool seems to move through us very fast, all things considered.

Well, thankfully you’re here to tell us all how the weather will pan out in 6 days time, during a record breaking double SSW and with an extreme cold pool of air affecting the UK. I’m envious, to my feeble mind anyone ‘calling it’ at this stage is clearly Einstein reborn and must be fast tracked to the Met Office with immediate effect. I’ve never seen models reverse or drastically change, after agreeing for 20 minutes. Oh, hang on.....

GFS 06z shows On Sat Only the extreme south is showing 7/8c. From M4 north it is 1c / 2c and -3cm to -5c uppers.. more than cold enough for snow to continue !
