It's too hot in my flat already - I'm dreading the next few days.
Shut the curtains

Its because you dont understand the orography of Slovakia. A -8 T850hPa under NW will produce a sunny +5 fór me, All the Snow will be blocked by mountains as Well as coldest air. I get colder temps under slack westerly,even Ice days like today with rising uppers.
Pretty sure you said you wouldn’t moan anymore given your white Xmas?!

This is not over for the south by any means. Now a mini ridge has appeared for Friday/Saturday and the low has turned into a slider, it is quite conceivable a correction of up to 200 miles could yet happen. I recall a couple of years ago a snow event dropped its southern extent from Birmingham to N London between T48 and T36. Equally there have been times the line has pushed north. Unless the models move towards ECM op in terms of depth of cold, this could go to the wire.
Don’t do it to yourself dude

He has based this on one model at 168hrs out. Big risk to tweet this
He has many more tools at his disposal than us. Don’t be silly.
remember Marco was being scoffed at when he was saying it would be mild in the south over Xmas and look what the models are now showing…

Yes, i would far rather live in kent than here, in my life kent has had nearly a metre of level snow once, a foot a few times and a lot of 6 inch falls, my location has had 6 inches about 3 times during that same period and has only had more than 6 inches once.
Lol
a very small corner of Kent
I honestly think people who live up north have different ranges to us southerners. When we say rarely, we mean a dusting maybe once a year. For those up north rarely seems to mean 5 or 6 occasions with measurable snow a year!

Sounding more like a description the winter of 78/79 with every update.
Seems to me like a normal winter; snow in the usual places. Bugger all down south as standard

I can agree with that from my location with hills towering round me the snow lines are very visible. Can only describe them as white curtains..
But that’s different from individual flakes 700ft away!

I have stood in Buxton and experienced rain / sleet yet still was able to make out individual snowflakes falling onto the adjacent hills above - 300ft higher & 700ft away.
Another point is that the settling snow gradient is generally much tighter than the falling snow gradient. You can go from no snow to snow on the ground in 30ft but this altitude based change is not possible for falling snow. This is because snow accumulation follows the 0c dewpoint line which is very narrow. Conversely, the snow to rain transition is not subject to a sharp cut off as falling snow does not get time to melt as it falls into temps of 1c to begin with.
Yet on the ground it has more time to reflect the temperature as the precipitation hits the ground it is there for much longer.
Lol @ making out individual snowflakes 700ft away
ok

This is true.
I'm much happier with the 12zs but the meto and BBC app have rain every single day locally after Wednesday.
And they have been consistent,and annoyingly stubborn.
As someone who takes as much interest in the models as you do I’m amazed you take any notice of the apps further than 12 hours out!
