It's not criticism. It's been an interesting debate in regards to snow parameters but several experienced posters have already proved why the marginality of 850's in this set up aren't critical yet posters still post the same things in regards to uppers being too high blah blah. It's tiresome to go round in circles
CC uppers are very important but in this setup with the dew points and thicknesses shown it will be snow to low levels!!! SK has just shown everyone why so can we please put this to bed!!!
Just started to slow in Rotherham. Are the echoes building again to the south? I don't have a real time radar so working out whether I should go to bed!
The front is making extremely slow progress! I expected the lighter snow to be here again by now! The heavier stuff still to come 3 am from North East Wales
Yeah Mark looking back at the loop i think you might be right. Nottingham is the same altitude as here so it's a good sign evaporative cooling can do its thing
Possibly looking at the radar where you live has hit a slightly heavier bit of precipitation but it looks like we're all about to hit a heavier burst so well see
The band currently approaching south Yorkshire if you role back the past hour is growing, back building and intensifying. A sure sign it's slowing and stalling and starting to pivot West with the South Easterly winds setting in. Positive to see.
I've been playing over the lack of modification Iin my head and I'm JUST airing on agreeing with you. I'm actually fascinated with this event because I cant remember such a marginal event
What will be interested is the snow reports based on altitude. I really feel this event is all about that. If it's settling below 100 metres there will be enough precipitation to touch 10 cm I ffeel in South Yorkshire. Complete now cast event. What are the conditions in comparison to boxing day anyone?
