For general weather chat including about the snow/cold chances around the country, please go to the regional threads:https://www.netweather.tv/forum/forum/142-regional-discussions/ Right at the top of the page. To be fair, you should use the multiquote option and then post it in the regional thread. It get's too clogged up in the model thread with people asking about snow for their area.

Something else has taken my fancy (as someone who likes weather statistics) the windchill on Monday from a strong NE/NNE wind could be very significant during the early hours. Don't take those windchill's at face value, I find nearly all public charts that show them, to be massively overplayed. However, it could be the coldest windchill for quite some time!

I pointed out in my regional thread yesterday, there's likely to be a significant pressure drop in the 24 hours. For example, I was at 1020mb at 10am this morning. At 10am tomorrow, pressure is projected to be in the high 970's - a good 35mb + drop in 24 hours.

I think you'll see something, whether it's worthwhile or not, is open for debate. I just thought i'd post them for fun as it's not worth getting hung up about it now. It's just a case of watching the radar and looking at your station's temp/dew point/wet bulb for anyone close to the zone. In the past, I have had heavy rain (which left the streets flowing like rivers) which then started falling as snow, it created a slush at first, but the snow was heavy enough to start accumulating, even on puddles!

I've just seen the very latest one, and they have significantly shifted the snow further North. Gimme a sec, i'll get a screen-grab.. -

Yes. If you look at the EXIF data of the picture, it says it has been edited with Pixlr - a picture editor. -
I agree if comparing GFS/other models to the MetO warning. What I cannot understand is their own wind forecasts - they don't match the warnings at all. If you go by the wind forecasts, then why wasn't there a warning out for Weds in to Thurs night? There was a stretch of around 8 - 10 hours of 45mph +, yet they're forecast shows the low 40's for around 3 hours. The weather maps and wind forecasts have always seemed correct during a warning, but not this time. It's extremely confusing.
