Whether Idle replied to Paul's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Personally though the Atlantic looks to win this week I would not be surprised to see the models looking cold and easterly led come Friday. Time will tell. -

Its way better than the 12z. Nice little trough opening over Europe at 144. -

Looks like a better run at 96, dare I say it trending slightly more GEMish? -

MOGREPS seems fairly well programmed. Shame we don't get to see it. -

Cluster 2 (13/50) is favourable for a decent cold blast at day 6 or 7. That's about a 1 in 4 or 5 chance so 20%. 80% chance of something less pleasing. -

I see why - it keeps the product as one of relative quality and accuracy, avoiding much of the FI pfaffing. That's not to say the Met O is always accurate - I think it verifies at 144 usually in second place; though by virtue of its short time period it avoids the same number of reversals the longer reaching models inevitably suffer from. -

Hi Alexis. I was out in the car and it was wintry with hail and lots of sleety blobs on the windscreen as the ice melted, so not just rain but not a lot more either!!- 738 replies

Great post from Steve. It is always a breath of fresh air when people don't treat the models as gospel, and it is surely entirely sensible that people (rather than algorithms) evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the models? -

Very cold windchill and drifting snow here at Dover cliffs. Feel sorry for the sheep aroundabout like me looking for a bit of shelter. Had enough and heading for my car. Sheep not welcome. My sympathies dont extend that far!

Decided to get a taste of severe winter weather. Headed to St Margarets Bay. Currently at national trust area by Langdon Bay met station 117m SSL. Continuous light to moderate snow blowing near horizontally in winds of 25kmph. Drifting snow all surfaces with a cover of About 2 cms temp around -0.5c

We have 1 mighty cm here at sea level IMBY. I imagine St Margarets Bay (100m asl and furthest SE) will be the sweet spot. Upper air 850s are staying low so it could be a snowy day in east Kent with altitude and proximity to the south foreland being key variables affecting snow depth - maybe Langdon Bay/ St Margarets will get another 3 cms today?? Snowing moderately but fine individual crystals. Air +0.9 dp-2.0. Good luck to all

http://www.raintoday.co.uk/ Good chance of some accumulations on a line from Whitstable-Ashford Rye eastwards overnight. Up to 3 cms perhaps, nowt to get too excited about but just about worth the effort. Streamer type showers forecast to kick in from around 10pm this evening til 10am tomorrow - then it warms up a degree or two.Maybe sweetspot will be Whitfield/ Langdon Bay hill tops? Good luck and if the showers line up into bands you never know...

Some places in the bands of showers may get much more than 4cms. Maidstone - TWells?? and maybe Leatherhead area if the band aligns further west. Good luck!
