Trying hard not to be negative here. However, it's hard not to. The ensembles have been hinting at a return to mild at the weekend since the cold showed up on them, and I see little change. I know the charts are all over the place at the minute, and even the MO don't know, but my negative head says that they have just got to give the heads up in case the cold air wins and a large part of the country gets buried in Snow.
If I've learned anything from living down here, is that the mild air usually wins. I remember last seasons final Snowfall, which was a huge amount. Not very many people thought it would turn mild so quickly, turn to Rain and melt the Snow we had, but it did.
Certainly an interesting few days ahead. I have to say, I do love the cold and do not want a return to anything mild for a while yet. This has only just started going really! It's going to be quite a showdown I feel. Actually I hope!
