After last nights disappointment, with not even a flake settling, I’m not expecting much.

Any settling snow would be brilliant by this winters standards.

I think you are right   however  its happened before when tracks of lows  etc are a bit off.    guess we will see later    at least its something to watch    which as been lacking this year    

[kmanmx]

Safe bet - follow the MetO warning zone guidance. They're right more than they are wrong. Access to better models than we have...

Snow due from midnight tonight to around 10am on Thursday

Was awaiting the downgrade I predict patchy rain. It will keep correcting further South. We never going to get a decent snowfall it seems.

Have we had that inevitable downgrade on the gfs mate?

[snowstorm27x]

Hat trick gfs is further south with low system by about 50 miles or so. Midlands looks like cold rain maybe a bit of sleet in the early hours. When will I learn that it always goes tits up.

[shaky]

Hmmm just took a look at gfs 12z!!still not too bad for the midlands!!expected it to look worse!!
