Stansted TAF TAF: EGSS 130501Z 1306/1412 29013KT 9999 SCT035 TEMPO 1306/1318 29020G32KT TEMPO 1308/1310 3000 SHRASN BKN005 PROB40 TEMPO 1308/1310 1000 SHSN BKN002 PROB40 TEMPO 1309/1315 30030G42KT PROB30 TEMPO 1405/1407 1500 -SHSN BKN007 So a good chance of some snow between 08 & 10AM for Stansted.

the TAFs for the airports are generally pretty good. As is usual the Stansted TAF was spot on today A bit of wet snow and not much else is what was predicted and that's what we got I am afraid. I will hope for better luck next time

I guess we new that anyway. Next TAF is due out soon so the update will be interesting.
