Now that would be epic! Adult snow

Now that's a rampable forecast from the ECM!

(It actually shows about 16mm water equivalent Thursday night into Friday)

5 ice days and Friday having a max of -3C with snow. Also -11C next Monday morning.

That's the perfect solution of the low getting close enough to bring a proper snow event, and then backing off to leave a slackening cold air mass.
Not expecting it like that but a nice thought

At face value it looks decent but take away the noise and ott amounts it could be quite light and patchy in west country going off that chart...

Im off to bed, Im totally on board now with severe cold but the snow amounts for us concern me still going off past experience.

^ That looks great! 18z GFS was another good one for frontal snow until it introduced milder uppers and turned to rain/sleet for parts, hopefully overly progressive. The control will do! 

[Ashme]

How do you delete the sticky notes? I can't click on them or reply to them from my phone? Please help, my OCD needs them gone ???

[Mapantz]

I'll take this..

Took its time but finally dropped below freezing about 45 minutes ago. Since then it’s dropped quickly to -1.0°C.

[EllyTech]

Temp 0C  Humidity 77%  Dewpoint -3C   Pressure 1020.1

[knocker]

The gfs still liking this scenario this morning

[Rammie]

What do you make of this break down by Friday talk? Cold arrives Monday, gone by Friday? Barely registers a cold snap! . Seems cold already, so I'm not believing the temps forecast for next week. Surely with that easterly, and those uppers, it will be colder. 

[EllyTech]

The chilliest station report in the UK this morning comes from Lyneham. 05.00:

Temp -4C and dew -5C

That is probably the hook to the song time of the whole event.

Temp here in North Devon this morning is a tropical -0.8c, started the night with a -1.6c but some cloud has come in and warmed us up!!!

Just read through the MAD thread and we seem to be in line for some cracking weather over the next 5-6 days. Bring it on..
