I think personally it might be a good thing the adlantic has some influence towards end of the week, it will give us a clean slate to start over. Maybe the next cold spell if it comes will be more severe or maybe it wont. But it sparks healthy debate and it gives us a respite from nasty gas bills. I like things to be sesonal big differances between summer and winter its what makes the UK so great. To have some snow has been fantastic, I have also learned a massive amount from the experts as well as from the novices like me asking very sensible questions. I will always favour the fax chart as its written by experts using there brains instead of a computer churning out maths after maths, only takes one number to be slightly out and it has massive implications as an example that insane low preassure. If the latest fax chart is to be belived then it looks like things will remain cold, but over clear skies with high preassure in control with lows out to the adlantic. That means not much in the way of snow for anyone so I agree S4lancia its better to have more marginality than dry and cold.
