South West and Central Southern England Regional Weather Discussion 22/02/2018 Onwards

[philglossop]

To put today in Plymouth into context....

 

These were BBC Spotlight titles the last time I can remember this amount in daytime

Snow showers just to my North (Thornbury area i reck) snow showers to the South (Bristol)......just a few flakes here. Missing out in SG today.

Latest for tomorrow? It is getting as confusing in here as in mad thread!

Is it a downgrade OR as you were? Cheers

ICON has shifted west a bit on latest run not good news for us in the east of the region!

That's the only doubt I have. Need a more ENE flow or growth on the southern edge.

Which we seem to have, as there are flakes blowing around in the wind as I type.

As feared.

UKMO to wait for

I will be watching the Radar and listening to the MetO, not the Mad Thread! 

[EllyTech]

Snowing, hard, here.

[Dormouse]

-3c and still snowing and blowing here.

[MidnightSnow]

Anyone able to post the ICON charts? Minimal shift west or a lot?

[SteveB]

What is all this talk of downgrade, this thread is getting as bad as the MAD thread 

[EllyTech]

Vis down to 120yrds approx. Approaching whiteout conditions.

Not hugely but still a somewhat small west shift, Bristol throughout looks to be the far far edge.

However I can't even trust high-res models, all of the showers the Bristol area witnessed yesterday, not one high-res model forecasted that.

I always wonder whether the batch of snow will still correct eastwards as that is the general theme with these events.

Yes. The man upstairs is shaking his head over us too and it's a bit grey looking to my east.

1 cm from a shower that looks very tame on radar.

[Georgie]

Little flakes a falling BS22 

[Ben Sainsbury]

To add the ICON and NetwX NMM look to go hand in hand. GFS, ECMWF, ARPEGE, HIRLAM all point towards heavier, more widespread snow.
