Oh - most of us are jealous already (just the 1cm). It's truly excellent to have another snow monster here. You'll be very welcome in the South West thread of Netweather which is just about the most friendliest around!
cheers. loomed here for a while but its time to start doing a bit of typing!

Thanks and welcome. Up in the Cotswolds (but in a valley!) look forward to many more nowcasts from your locality.
thanks for the welcome kumquat. nice to see some fellow snow obsessed folk on here!!
Right, this band of SNOW is right on our doorstep now. Some pretty heavy bursts in this as well.

not contradictory IMO....I've found the BBC weather graphics inaccurate on numerous occasions, and find some of the hi-res models (especially NW's own NMM 4k model) more accurate....perhaps the BBC should employ better computer graphic designers?
just to add, I was referring more to the knee jerk reactions of a few members due to one short forecast
This is my first post on netweather and have been reading in the background for years. I have to say I'm dissapointed in the flack that Ian F has to endure on behalf of his colleagues at the bbc.
I don't think improving graphics or trying to make them look prettier is the answer when the answer is that a modelled solution cannot be shown in better detail/higher confidence. One thing that I've learned in being a forum lurker is that the solution that our model forecasting provides is simply the most likely scenario but we need to accept the element of uncertainly - and that is the weather.
For the record, Ian F replies to nearly every post/question directed at him (not just on this regional thread) on here (plus his commitments at the Met O) and I think some should show a little more gratitude. Ian's posts are the most informative (and frankly unbiased) that I've ever read on here and long may they continue...

larger flakes now, so this system has plenty of precipitation left in it for those east
