If MetO were to update their warnings again today what sort of time would they do that? I’ve onlt ever noticed them doing updates between roughly 10-11am but see on other threads people are mentioning the expect the amber warning to get further extended. I don’t think I’ve ever noticed it change later in the day before 

They will change them as they see fit I think. If an extension is warranted they will do it regardless of Time of day as they need to notify the public.

As my post clearly stated, it was what Ian F said last night...Please feel free to view his forecast.

As he also said, the forecast will homed in TODAY with regards to warnings (as per the Amber) and a more clearer picture. So basically its not what I think, its what Ian F said last and night the Meto text today. 

Try a bit of nowcasting..... this is our friendly regional thread. Not the oneupmanship thread...

Forgive the idiot question here.....is that showing accumulated snow up to 9pm tomorrow? If so, if the METO are right, there's quite a few more hours of falling snow to come after that.

Yes I stopped at 21:00 hrs J. ️

If it was 20miles further south if might be marginally better for us coasties...sorry imbyism I know, but these events are becoming rare, unless of course you live in central USA, and there it seems an annual event to have a once in a lifetime freezer event. I remember the last one, so that's at least twice in my lifetime!

Try the old glass half full approach, you might like it 

this is not your standard low pushing up against cold air scenario, usually the -5 line is straddling the midlands in these events and rightly we are the wrong side of marginal. I think there will be surprises tomorrow if models remain the same. Coasts included

The Hirlam is awesome, we could see dinner plate sized flakes, Sidney could be in trouble especially with 12 inches!

Well I had some snow this morning up in Lytchett Matravers, which is still hanging around. The kids were made up, especially the smaller ones, got to walk to school in the falling snow. 

Tomorrow looking really good for our region. I’m ignoring the Cold Thread and have done for a couple of days @Jayfromcardiff as I can imagine conflicting reports as it becomes an IMBY contest!  South Wales looking to do particularly well imo.

fingers crossed we all fair well ️

My guess, Scandi high as result of link up with current Russian high, leading to locked in cold evolution through Feb, last chart suggests the Murr sausage the eventual destination.  Or, I could be reading too much into mean charts weeks into the future, or maybe dreaming 

They look like weak anomalies to me other than week 2... so about as much use as a chocolate tea pot.. just what we needed 

[Cold hunt - models and chat]

Weeks 2/3/4

Never been in there. You won’t catch me watching football matches at white heart lane either! #loyalmember

I for one am not expecting a repeat from the EC46 tomorrow that we’ve been used to seeing. Perhaps then you’ll see a change in wording from the MetO Perhaps not.... something has to give soon

Uppers are shocking, pretty useless easterly lol. If you can indeed call it that..

[Cold hunt - models and chat]

Why would anyone post In the regionals? This is nowhere near a done deal yet, the modelling is important of this low. When anything falls from the sky fair enough, but until then I don’t think that’s reasonable.
