I feel comforted with this as a NE usually effects the eastern coast and leaves me alone but this usually evolves into a easterly anyway but It might take sometime for that but I reckon come new year we will have a look a simple fresh easterly!
It's V FI wouldn't even happen but look at the central point of that low and pressure the is just SCREAMING mild, wet and zonal winds!
That wouldn't happen but it just really horrible to see!
I would like to say that CFS picked this up a while ago and it seemed to materialize I would start to look to the CFS for similar trends it may not be good at closer range but its a very useful model as its TWO colder trends that its picked and actually pulled through!
The GFS handled the band of snow very well last night different to the UKMO because of that I know have about 3-4cm of snow and still coming down hard and fast!
