  1. 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.
  2. Don't believe that. It is only using model data. It showed a snow shower on me, yesterday, but it was rain.
  3. No change down here near the coast. 9 - 10°C and rain. By the time the temperature get down to low figures, the precip has cleared off.
  4. 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!
  5. 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.
  6. I saw knocker online a little while ago. I know he's not a fan of cold weather and the snow angst that occurs in the mod thread, so I expect he's taking a break - I don't blame him! lol
  7. 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!
  8. I should also mention that there could be high rainfall totals for those who aren't in line for snow.
  9. On the bright side, still looking like a station record tomorrow. Pressure is 1019.24 hPa at the moment. This time tomorrow, perhaps in to the high 970's That is a massive drop in 24 hours.
  10. It's brought Scotland in to play now.. Don't shoot the messenger!
  11. 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..
  12. Yes. If you look at the EXIF data of the picture, it says it has been edited with Pixlr - a picture editor.
  13. A bit more detail.. A range of models and their pressure projections for here: Saturday 9am: Sunday 9am: That's impressive! Possible low 970's or maybe even a 969mb by Monday.
  14. A 35 - 40mb drop in pressure in under 24 hours for some places.. My record on this station is 29.1mb - I reckon that could go?!
  15. 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.
  16. Just been out to shine the handheld sun up in to the sky, I can confirm a flake or two mixed in with the rain.
  17. I know i'm going to get shouted out for going on about it, but re Sunday's wind warning... I've just had a look at the app, and the wind gusts are showing higher for Monday than they are on Sunday. Even the BBC said 50mph gusts widely. I just cannot work it out!
  18. I reckon he's been looking at that ridiculous ECM snow chart that keeps getting banded around on here. It makes the GFS precip-type chart look accurate at 384 hours.
  19. Most of the region is under -8C upper air, but it makes no odds if the wetbulb temps aren't interested. Easterlies or GTFO for me.
