Oh that reminds me - Winter road rescue channel 5 9pm tonight, how appropriate lol

Awww come on Liam you know you want to ramp really........ A night of radar and lampost watching - plus lock in, in chat thread. Just been to cash & carry, bar well stocked up. All welcome.

I think you may struggle to get them planted. Ground is going to be too hard.

Matthew Hugo@MattHugo81 One thing is for sure even if it's transitory most areas of Eng/Wales will see snow. I'll try & discuss in detail Matthew Hugo@MattHugo81 Note the rather elongated shape to the isobars...this signals a slowing system all good for us #snowfans - http://www.wetterzentrale.de/pics/Rtavn601.png Paul Hudson @Hudsonweather Room for timings to change at w/e, but @metoffice warning suggesting 2-5cms in west, with 5-10cms further east looks reasonable at moment Matthew Hugo@MattHugo81 Here's the latest NAE model on the situation for Sat morning. Sniw getting into Wales & W areas of Eng early on. http://pic.twitter.com/9RRQRT6a

Hi annag welcome to the forum.

Haha it's like a pantomine. 'oh no it isn't' *Grabs rotten cabbages*

Long time no see! Great to see you back!

Matthew Hugo@MattHugo81 NW Eng. ECM ENS brings a zone of snow across the region during the latter stages of Sat. Temps progged to be 0C or just below at time of ppn

Yes as Martin said not too sure about a frost tonight as the air is so dry. Car hasn't got any frost on so far.

Not far behind you Liam, temp -2c, dewpoint -6.1c

So far so good for Saturday. If the timing is right we could get a dumping of snow.

Currently 1.7c, dewpoint -4.7c

I think the ground is still going to be pretty hard so you'll struggle to dig the soil.

Morning everyone! A low of -0.7c last night. Currently -0.2c

Pipped at the Post SP!

Ok think SP wins on the temp front. Temp ever so slightly on the rise here. Currently 0.2c. Really calm, no breeze whatsoever.

Evening all. Temp currently -0.9c, dewpoint -3.1c

Could be in for an interesting weekend! http://metofficenews...ekends-weather/

It's best not to look that far ahead Chiffer as its out of the reliable time frame. Reliable timeframe at the moment is about 4 days at the most. So stick around for the fun and games

Bit of dandruff this morning but that's all. Struggled to get much above 2c today, dewpoint -0.1c
