  1. No idea - like to think you East London crew would get some. Maybe more of a struggle in the west of London though.
  2. Wrong - once the ground temp hits zero, snow will start to settle readily, especially with any intensity. It’s one of the most common misconceptions when people say “the ground is too wet for snow to settle.”
  3. With those very low dew points modelled for next weekend and a brisk SE wind, that will feel absolutely perishing. It’s funny salivating over charts a week away when we also have this week to experience. Possibly the best model viewing period ever! Hopefully we will be chasing record temps in the summer too!
  4. Must be quite localised as only had rain here - no hail or dark clouds.
  5. Even Central London will struggle to get much above freezing - the BBC forecasts are crud. I’d love to get a partial refund on my TV licence fee!
  6. This is a first for me in 18 years of model watching: a cold spell starting as we speak, and we’re looking in the models for an even more severe one! Something seems to be afoot here - ECM and GEM seem to be shutting the door to a breakdown step by step.
  7. You’re just up the road from me! I’d take 23cm. I remember in 2010 when cars couldn’t get up the little hill as you come into Sible from Gosfield!
  8. I reckon we will do well, although I’m a lot closer to the Suffolk border.
  9. I’m sure all his negative posts are an attempt at reverse psychology!
  10. You should get a job on British Rail! Speaking of delays, it will be interesting to see whether the ECM 0z run continues the trend to extend the cold spell. Slightly stronger heights coupled with a shallower low could make a big difference.
  11. Don't troughs tend to crop up at short notice though, and aren't usually well modelled? I really think that many more people will get the snow that what the models are currently showing.
  12. Anyone calling the cold spell over at the end of the week is being a bit premature. The block is putting up a bit more of a fight it seems.
  13. Fair enough - but the slipping southwards was not really unexpected. I doubt that it will change much more now as we count down to T0.
  14. Same stuff, different day. When are people going to actually realise that the precipitation charts are hopeless!
  15. Agreed - but to rule it out at this range is taking a risk. Things could upgrade quite easily.
  16. Prior to the February 2009 snow event, they were predicting 10-15 cm. South of London was quite widely in excess of 20-25cm.
