Today, some of these charts, they must be some of the greatest weather set ups for the UK I have ever seen. If anything even close to hour 238 GFS (P) was to come off for us, albeit unlikely of course, it would cause not only the country to come to a complete standstill but also this forum would absolutely explode with joy.

I cannot explain how amazing some of them charts are. Feet and feet of snow if they happen.

ECM has led with way with this cold spell. Let's hope it continues tonight... If we have a full house Saturday evening/Sunday morning it's a done deal

Don’t get me wrong, I’m loving the charts and high spirits right now but I’m erring on the side of caution, we have been here before... it’s still a long way out in weather terms. Until we are at T+24 im going to be sitting here with my hands in front of my face in case it all goes wrong

Just driven home from work, had a pint, picked up some things at the shop, since I posted on the UKMO T120, and it's taken 20 minutes to get through the new pages of great posts, great charts, from everyone!  This is going to be epic.  

Don't worry about the ICON.  If as has been suggested it isn't modelling the arctic high element correctly, that may be because that is a manifestation of the strat downwelling, which must now be the main driver.  I would not expect a second division model like ICON would have good resolution up in the strat.

ECM a formality tonight for me.

Oh absolutely, we've seen it collapse regularly very close to the reliable. But if that low off the US behaves as we want it to, the pattern should begin in its wake. This is the key part. After that everything else should fall into place. That happens around Tuesday/Wednesday. If we can get within 72hrs of that and have a full house, I'm very confident.

Yep and near enough a foot for quite a large portion of W.Midlands as well. That literally is USA standards of snowfall by the way.

Anyway plenty of time for details to change so as great as it is, that's all it is for now, same with any solution the OP's bring out, colder or not.

By the way, the one ensemble run that looks like ICON at 180hrs develops a snowfall set-up and the cold does come in big time around 264hrs.

Here is that daft CMA model at +144. Seen a few mentions of it recently on here so worth a mention.

It has been mentioned because it nailed this pattern about 4 days ago.

Have to say for the first time this winter it's pretty spliffing to see Great 850s finally homing in on great synoptics for the UK.they have been either side of the UK all winter"esp to the east"so I think all UK coldies deserve a break and a good spell of exceptional winter weather!!!

That's storm Emma depths again for South East Wales and for a good part of the uk lol. I really hope this happens again. The highways and utility weather briefs were very interesting today. The pros are sure watching this very very closely ⛄☃️??❄

A bottle of Hynes XO, and a piping hot Waitrose Chilli prawn pizza in front of my fire watching through the window at the winter lockdown.

This is heading to #winterofdiscontent......will we see a 20th century great matched?  ECM imo will very much back its 00z up

No chance. To be like the winter of discontent we would need to have an extreme left wing government! Oh, hold on a minute maybe you might yet be right !

Looking good this afternoon. We are seeing most of the models agree the overall pattern now and have seen this over a few runs. Almost impossible to predict who will get hammered at this stage though.
