  1. How reliable is NMM? It seems out on a limb compared with Euro4 and NW's model
  2. Slightly off topic, but do the warnings team work at night? Or would any warnings for SE for tomorrow come in the morning?
  3. North and South downs look like they are going to get pasted, maybe the chilterns too
  4. I wonder when the met office will start putting out warnings again for tomorrow, given Steve's update snow seems nailed on
  5. Thanks for the update, interesting day ahead tomorrow I lost a bit of faith when the met removed the warning, but sounds like there is still hope
  6. Express at it AGAIN Big headline - 6 INCHES OF SNOW THIS WEEKEND Anyone seeing the headline would think it everywhere and panic, the Express take something from a northern peak or Scottish mountain and spin it to look like it's going to happen everywhere They should be fined by the PCC for deliberately misleading people
  7. Weird, the warnings for tomorrow have disappeared from the met office website Maybe taken down to be updated to snow? as GFS was a significant upgrade for the SE
  8. Decent charts today No beast from the east or snowmageddon but a week or so of very cold temperatures, night frosts, trough disruption and more, good chance of most places to see some lying snow Bank
  9. With the angle of the band and its shape it looks to me like a Bristol channel streamer, just hope it doesn't die out before it reaches London
  10. A band of heavy snow working it's way towards the London area, things could get very interesting indeed
  11. Looks like the downs will get a few cm tonight, I would say about 10-15cm in the most elevated areas, but temperatures are going to be 8-9 tomorrow so I can't see any lying snow lasting long Some incredible models from the GFS(P) and ECM though, so tonight is just a little taster of what's to come
  12. Looks like the UK heading into the freezer in the next few days and staying in it for a considerable time, looks pretty cast in stone now that there will be a severe spell of weather Both ECM and GFS (P) would result in snow cover not seen since Dec 2010 Party time
  13. How do the GFS Operational run, the parallel run and the control run often show such big differences in output? GFS is the American answer to the Met Office? Are the same team of people working on the same models or do they have different teams? just find it strange how 3 totally different types of weather in terms of models can come out of the same building
  14. Those who wrote off winter must be feeling pretty embarrassed now Some stunning charts, frontal snow, sliders, easterly, all in FI admittedly, but the trend is for colder weather The cold heart of winter is coming
  15. Amazing how the met office with their multi million pound computers and hundreds of Millions from the taxpayer have got it so massively wrong They forecast westerlies and South westerlies for the next couple of weeks, when it is very clear that the UK is heading into the freezer in a way not seen for a couple of years
  16. Madden now predicting 150 days of snow http://www.express.co.uk/news/nature/549619/2015-weather-forecast-UK-five-months-cold-winter Last year he predicted 100 days of snow and got none right
  17. NW is useless for widespread snow though, with NW sure Scotland, N Wales and the Cheshire gap would do ok but that's it, we need a NE/E to send us into the freezer and give us the deep snow everyone on this forum wants
  18. Feb 2009 I got 16" of snow from a Thames streamer, anything is possible, feb 2009 was as a result of an SSW event too so there is still everything to play for
  19. Anything beyond +96 is FI now so no point getting excited about what might occur 10 days + time, the models got the low at the weekend wrong even the day before, it was much further north than predicted so while eye candy is nice it is pointless getting excited atm
  20. It is time that he was sectioned, he is either a sociopath who gets kicks out of scaring pensioners, or he is mentally ill. Or both
  21. Weren't the models forecasting a Thames streamer today?
  22. That band of showers across Norfolk and Suffolk is still heading towards London and southern counties, could be an eventful afternoon, the rain is turning to snow as it heads inland
  23. A heavy looking blob just entered east Anglia and heading in the direction of London, rain atm but if that bumps into the cold air and turns to snow it could give a good covering
  24. There is a line of snow stretching from the North Sea down to west London, hope we get in on the action there as looks like it will snow all day
