What’s happening weds now? Still in with a chance on Isle of Wight?? Or done?! Thanks

What times the next run? Also is this completely dead in the water for us now?? Could it swing back again before Weds? Clutching at straws here as for once the Isle of Wight were in the sweet spot
Thanks

The silence says it all…………. The low is dropping south…..
all I can hope is for it to clip the Isle of Wight
Still time for change I guess?! Can someone say which models are showing what now and at what point does it become ‘nailed on’? Thankyou

So reading through the model forum it’s looking very likely no snow for us south coasters (again), I keep looking just on the off chance this changes - I’d just be happy with a couple hours decent snowfall that lays - enough to build a snowman
then I’m happy until next winter 
but it’s been 5 or 6 years down here!!! Am I wasting my time or is there any chance for us next week? Thanks

What I find annoying is reports about Britain in the freezer/The great freeze of Britain etc etc in the papers I live on the Isle of Wight we’ve literally had a few cold days and a brief flurry we now have heavy rain and wind! And next week double figure temps and more rain!They should be more specific in the headlines that’s the north! I’m really hoping we will get a decent cold spell and some snow at some point this winter it’s been 5 years
Does anyone have a long term view for this south of the country?

The control is a belter fir the south - big snowfall
As South as the Isle of Wight? I do feel for us we literally need a miracle set up to get snow down here? Assume it’s due to the sea? Any experts that can explain for me please?

Hope you all get some snow, I think I'm a bit too far north. South coast is looking good for a few cm of snow I'd say!
Isle of Wight???? Be rain I’m sure

The situation is complex, but I don't get why the mood is so downbeat.
We all know that snow is difficult to forecast more than 48 hrsout, but it is not the odd FI run that shows snow. Every run there is a serious number of Operationals and ensemble members that is good enough for snow.With these snow charts for this EC run, all of the UK, Ireland and Holland gets to see snow, with the exception of Devon, Kent and the Isle of Wight (sorry, guys).
You can complain later, but for this set most of you would have bitten off your hand two months ago.
Plus, with this chart at 240h, you're not talking about a smooth return of the Atlantic either:
Oh great thanks for that!
