Yes indeed I was only jesting over the thread bashing thread comment!
I don't understand why I get so involved in reading the Mod. thread a) I don't understand what anyone is writing about b) I get uptight or elated depending on what the predictions are. I need to stop reading it because it doesn't reflect what eventually happens with the weather, and I have absolutely nothing meaningful to add to it, so effectively it's dead time to me!
Weather today: typical November, sky as grey as a Welsh slate quarry, zero sun, pretty chilly. However temp up from yesterday 10.5 degrees, another frostless night then...
That sums up my thoughts too exactly

Told my girls, it would snow later in the winter like end jan onwards.
Youngest is still asking, dad you know you said it would snow late in the winter!!!
I am quietly hoping from a proper dump of it, even if it last for just a couple of days.
At this rate its wishing for heavy snow showers at best.Snowfall is just magical. Everything smells and sounds different, well outdoors anyway.

Well it doesn't help in the fact that the air is being mixed in with the Atlantic high pressure.
Also it just aint cold enough across the north sea into Europe, not to say it wont snow though.
Thanks. Personally I hope it does even though it can be a nuisance

Can anyone help me as a fascinated amateur. I see charts like these and can't see why they wouldn't produce snow showers in the South East.

Hi is there anyone here that knows if the south east will have strong wind gusts or just mostly the north next week tues/weds thanks
Hi Amanda. At the moment it looks like the North and West will see the strongest winds.

I can only go by the very scientific method of how much noise the wind was making and based on that it was stronger than St Jude or Xmas eve eve for me. Had a quick check before work and apart from wheelie bins on their side all seems intact.

I've just come out of a teleconference with various airports, air traffic control and the Met Office regarding the situation Sunday night in to Monday morning. The current industry specific breif is as follows:
The low should be in or around the Bristol channel by 2100 Sunday moving NE. At 0600 Monday its expected to be Cardigan Bay with a central pressure of 966mb still moving NE. It should clear the Lincolnshire coast by 1200. Anywhere inland south of a line drawn Plymouth to Norwich should see winds of 35-40KT (40-50mph) with occasional gusts up to 60KT (70mph). Exposed hills and coastal locations along the south coast could see a mean wind of 50-60KT with gusts in the 70-80KT region between the hours of 0400-1000. There is also an "outside chance" of somewhere seeing in excess of 80KTS (92mph) for a short while, most likely somewhere along the Dorset coast across to Kent.Any storm surge/swell along the south coast should be around 6ft above the mean. We are in the neap tide range, so tides are not as high.The estimate is that this low should be around 20mb less and on average around 20-30KTS less severe than the 1987 storm.Information above is accurate as of 1430 this afternoon.
If the low is in the Bristol Channel and 9 hours later is in Cardigan Bay it has moved NW not NE?

Well I have to say, despite all the doom and gloom in some other threads about lack of snow, I love this weather. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets, sunny days, long may it continue.
