Jeeeeez - fingers crossed. I just think of 2013 and the red warning we had that night only for it to hit the channel islands instead!

You never know. Nothing like what you lot had over the weekend. Lived in chelts for 6 years and never had anything like that!

I need to do work!!! But can't pull myself away!

Yes very useful. Try and get one that records dew points as thats the one that tends to scupper snow in the south west.

You never know. We are on the south western slope of the moor. At 200 metres we are certainly well placed than say folks in plymouth, but we are often on the margins of a decent snowfall. In these marginal set ups the snow line tends to be above 300 metres (only half a mile from me). We suffer in my location to the proximity of the tamar estuary, its a huge body of water and is only 5 miles away I'm sure it effects our DP and general tendency to get really cold. The fabled snow narnia village of princetown is but 5 miles up the road but its a hugely different climate to here. It sits at 500 m/asl and is often 3c colder at all times of the year (sometimes 6c difference to plymouth city centre) it certainly picks up its fair share of snow days. If the ppn is there in the next 24 hours they will be in business.

Interesting really to see how the warmer air interacts with our current cold airmass in terms of inroads or skirting along the channel. Feels like a nowcasting sort of 24 hours coming up.

I've got to 8:15 on the browser.....baby steps!

Oh no any idea when it is due back on? Had to be today!

When the sun comes up this is a very useful webcam Dartmoor Princetown Live Webcam CAMSECURE.CO.UK Live streaming webcam from Princetown in Dartmoor Devon UK. This live webcam shows views from Princetown towards the moors and the infamous...

Yes overnight could be interesting. Not that it is always right but the absence of any weather warning makes me wonder if it will be just fluff in the breeze mind you anything that falls from the sky should add to the ice risk. Sunday morning was an ice rink round here.

Nothing here yet! Mind you we are only at 200 metres. Met office app always over egg the snow risk. Its relatively mild today at 1.6c. DP about 0.5. If we are to get anything significant today I'd suggest it will a 300 m/asl event, certainly during the day. Radar is pretty bare at the moment for the moor.

Update on the snow tomorrow for Devon and Cornwall. Looks a bit wet rather than white tomorrow night for Cornwall with patchy snow for Devon certainly on the moors. But then Wednesday afternoon looks like a heavier period of snow for Cornwall. Usual caveats apply. Only one model and is just one possibility but a possibility all the same.

Met office ups the ante somewhat with the snow getting to Poole. HIgh parts of devon and east cornwall in line for 5 hours of light snow elsewhere rain. 4 different models with 4 different outcomes. Best bet stick your head out the window at 10pm tomorrow and see what is what EDIT: Arome model suggests brushing the cornish coast with rain and snow in land.

Splodge or PPN just entering the south hams area from the channel could turn to snow if it makes it inland, heading in a NW direction. Could lead to real icy conditions.

Anytime but I have to go but I'm nipping out now so try and get on it later

Arpege makes a bit more of it almost getting to exeter but getting no further north than dartmoor. All in all no one really knows!!

12z GFS has it even more west based, with west cornwall the favoured spot. By tonight's run I'd suggest it will not make landfall at all

Thats just one model. GFS running now will give us another clue

Nope it fades towards france. That's the furthermost extent on this model

Forgot to attach to my last post

12z ICON brings cornwall into play for snow tuesday evening and night. Extends up to Dartmoor as well.

6z GFS says no. So only UKMO suggesting it. Their next high resolution run is at 3pm so will know more this evening. My hunch is it will slip through the channel. The breakdown on Sunday will be a rain event where as up north it could be a mega snow to rain event

The models keep changing their mind. Today UKMO suggest some snow along the coast tomorrow night but the other models have backed away. So in answer to your question who knows!

Yes indeed 11c here by Sunday. But before then have woken up to see the met office suggesting there will be 5 hours of snow on tuesday evening. Even into Plymouth snow is predicted. Yikes. Oh and it is -2.9c
