Nice downward trend from late January, trend is our friend

My same feeling too but the snow line does seem to be backing back west a little lol

Met office say heavy rain now from 3pm but heavy snow from 4pm so maybe they no something we don't?

Yes heavy rain ward green near Barnsley. Road turning very slushy with big puddles lol

Snow

Met office say heavy for Barnsley until 6pm wtf lol think they make it up half of time lol

Well hadn't really had much look in my neck of the woods yet. Snow falling then staying for at least a day has not happened this winter yet. Sunday according to the GFS. I may be able to take my daughter sledging she so eagerly wants to do until the afternoon mild creeps in. We really only get very cold spells from an easterly or north easterly so not gonna get any hopes up until I see a trend to that outcome. Maybe late Feb we will. Not gonna comment on the ECM has I think it's turning unreliable and an attention seeker in the winter months anyhow. GFS plays catch up to ukmo then thinks it's the top dog. Ukmo is OK but we can't see half of its outcome anyway lol rant over. Anyway I love this forum and your comments and posts keep me from moving to the Arctic circle for my snow and cold fixes,. Roll on 6z boom charts lol.

Could do with the band moving in a se direction.

Few small flakes mixed with rain here nothing to write home about ward green area about 1 1/2 mile from Barnsley town centre.

Also met office have rain for Barnsley 70m asl

Minds if it does snow will have all melted by 11am like today, seems to me like a waste if day temp does not stay around freezing. We need an easterly or northery with at least - 8 850hpa before we get really excited. Sorry for been a bore lol

Don't see much hope tonight but I could wrong lol

To be honest looking at the radar its building and building like mad plenty more left yet.

Met office say stopping at 3ish on hour forecast but what They no lol

The wind has pick up too last half hour

Just seen a massive flash looking west from ward green Barnsley.

Ward green in Barnsley is white over

I'm sure you will have plenty winters left mate, ecm snow fest we can hope ??

Pmsl gonna be good old ride lol

Red wine the vinegar type ,got some prosecco off parents Christmas rocket fuel ha ha

It's happening lol got plenty vodka Red bull to keep me going until it does pmsl .

Keeps turning pinker on radar as each passing update refreshes.

Think will turn to snow within next half hour,just need to see where the band ends up can we keep enough for a covering.

Merry Christmas all my weather friends forever have a good one

Yes very very good indeed, can't praise enough.
