    Trying hard not to be negative here. However, it's hard not to. The ensembles have been hinting at a return to mild at the weekend since the cold showed up on them, and I see little change. I know the charts are all over the place at the minute, and even the MO don't know, but my negative head says that they have just got to give the heads up in case the cold air wins and a large part of the country gets buried in Snow.

    If I've learned anything from living down here, is that the mild air usually wins. I remember last seasons final Snowfall, which was a huge amount. Not very many people thought it would turn mild so quickly, turn to Rain and melt the Snow we had, but it did. :cray:

    Certainly an interesting few days ahead. I have to say, I do love the cold and do not want a return to anything mild for a while yet. This has only just started going really! It's going to be quite a showdown I feel. Actually I hope!

    It's looking good, I think tomorrow the MO will start talking and the BBC will follow. Amounts will change all through the week I feel.

    I copy below, a very good analysis from the MOD thread. Note OMM, is hinting at possible disturbances before the main event, so this proves there are clearly a lot of options on the table. So if at first, it is not the snow that is the main talking point, it will certainly be the COLD. :cold:

    We must take each day as it comes for now as the differing models are all over the place. :search:

    Hi you mentioned possible disturbances before the main event, what do you mean by disturbances?

    You beat me to it, but I must say I LIKE IT.

    IT SCREAMS POTENTIAL and whilst there is POTENTIAL, there is HOPE. :drinks:

    And to add further to your last part as highlighted, this is the CRUCIAL part, if it were to stall over your region (whoevers?) this could produce snowfall of epic proportions, say upwards of a foot or more over high ground, who knows at this stage. :sorry: I am highlighting this part in particular because the MetO are clearly looking at it as well. Februarys from years gone by, have produced these battleground events on numerous occasions from very similar synoptics to which we are currently enduring. :good: My guess and it is purely a guess would be to favour the Southwest of our region with the usual caveats of elevation and places away from the coast being best favoured.

    Amazing times ahead.

    Cheers

    When will we know more about this potential event, can we get excited about this yet?

    Andrew, you could also read this post with some excellent analysis from Isolated Frost.

    To my mind, this seems to be a bit overegged but then again, the "people in the know" are responding well to his thoughts and I also have a lot of respect for this guy.

    Looking possible then. Fingers crossed

    Game on, as I said earlier and this COULD well be a long old trawl through February if you're looking for something springlike. :acute:

    Regards
