EWP has opened up slowly, 3 mm to 2nd and not much added since then. The GFS 10-day forecast shows a muted version of the February pattern but it only appears to be around 20 mm away from the much wetter mountains of Wales and Cumbria. The maps for days 11 to 16 could add 10-15 mm. So if this verifies, we would be near the 20th with only 30-40 mm in the bucket. Perhaps 50-60 is not unrealistic given the model performances in February.
