Well thanks 252  that’s the best it gets !!!!! 

Downgrading last three days from heavy snow for 5 hours to a dusting if lucky. The met Office got it spot on Tuesday so why not tomorrow

METO doesn't have a clue right now. They have a yellow warning area that covers half of the UK. Their forecast contains words like "parts of England". It might snow in some parts or not. Tbh this is not a forecast. I know some LPs are difficult to track but I expect more from METO. 

Anyway, as I see things right now its a non event especially for Leicester, even with a northern extension I expect fragmented ppn.

No surprise. GFS is always way too progressive and ends up falling inline with the other models eventually.

Looks much more accurate now it has the snow stopping about 5 miles to my south.

The low is tracking further south sorry. I would love to be wrong but the met Office have been pretty good for Warwick! Some people will see snow and good luck in that. 

But it’s getting less and less for here

Hey Foz ?? if something can downgrade, it will around here. I was looking at the dew point the other night on the Wellesbourne airport weather site, much higher than what everyone else in the region was reporting. We are just too low with unfavourable geography it seems. ??‍♂️

Blimey, I'm not far from you at the moment, currently in Maypole. 

Yes not far at all, was looking good for our locale a couple of days ago, but not very hopeful now. Think they’ll be another opportunity though before end of Feb, there’s still March of course also!

Fully expect the Euro4 model to have it further south on the next update, to complete the full sweep. Should know about 11pm.

Yes VC that’s why the glass is always half empty with snow for our location

ignore that member, no charts whatsoever, no evidence to ever back things up

You may have just made it more difficult for yourself when your discussions about modern winters come around next.

Stoke seems to be the consensus now for the Northern boundary. All models now in half decent agreement.

Looks like tonight though has shown the Front isnt that powerful even further South best we can hope for is a dusting. Not many big totals even further South looks marginal and sleet at times in Somerset etc. Think calling time on this event like so many promises so much but so often falls flat. Euro 4 will be further South

Have to say the latest charts do still seem adamant on a slight shift even more south at this rate it may just touch the Cotswolds. Think we could all do with a good 100 mile shift north in the morning

You'll do fine. As will most of the Midlands. It's only from my town northwards that there looks to be sod all.
