  1. Too many obsessing with the possible breakdown will miss what's happening outside their window this week. Models are rubbish at this range when it comes to the position of a LP when we have cold air over us. Probably won't be entirely resolved in great detail until Wednesday with possible adjustments still possible by then.

    Amazing how things have changed,  on this morning's 00z it looked like a prolonged freeze and now it could all be over by this time next week..anyway, more runs needed i guess!:D..still, some disruptive wintry weather incoming and who knows what the 18z / 00z will show?..with a bit of luck..a prolonged freeze!!:cold-emoji:

    That's why I never look beyond day 5. People will disagree but with every extra day you look beyond the margin for error increases.

    I doubt it will surpass 2010 in terms of depth and longevity of cold surface temperatures. But in terms of snowfall this setup has the potential to deliver in a way that we haven't seen since the 1980s, for some parts possibly even even back before the 1980s....

    Agree with depths of cold. For certain regions there's  potential for certain areas to see their best since 80s. Still looking pretty dry the more west you go and it will take a lot to trump the blizzard of march 2013 in terms of snowfall.

    Worth noting that the 00z, 06z and now 12z GEFS is building back +ve height anomalies to our north and north-west beyond day 10. Indicative of the second tropospheric response to the stratospheric warming.

    If there is any breakdown, it won't be a long one.

    Next hit could be from a Northerly? If it builds to NW. If you were a betting man which do you think is more plausible a Northerly or Easterly? Ty

    slight adjustment on the 6z making way for better angle for NW of Ireland, this will obviously change between now and t0.

    Hopefully this weekend I can occupy myself sufficiently so as not to be on here every 15 mins :D

    Have a day in London next Thursday, don't know how that will pan out for me.

    It's pandemonium at Heathrow with 1cm. I doubt your flight will happen if the current output verifies.

    dont buy into this convective craic, few times this year we had -8 uppers in the north west, over a very warm atlantic, and the radar was always just sporadic, i think our snow chances lay in the kinks in the isobars, so troughs/fronts popping up in the flow. last nights fax chart looks very good for the north east

    Wasn't there -11 about two or three weeks ago, a Tuesday I think. Was every little away from the Atlantic coast.

    The Mod thread is completely bonkers. Yest they said to ignore all snow acc / forecast charts because they are not worth the paper they are written on. Now its showing snow in their location and they are 100 % accurate and quotes flying everywhere about how much snow they are going to get. Unreal 

    Boards.ie is even worse, stopped reading it. The Met office warning for East of UK up until 23.55 Tuesday  mentions accumulations of 0-2cm, with potential for 5 to 10cm locally. 

  8. Wednesday before the cold air proper gets here as in ice day. On Tuesday highs of 3 to 5, 3 for Dublin, 5 over here. Wednesday/Thursday possible ice days.  Friday slightly warmer still ice day for some possible. 

     

    Still 5 days away from the Coldest of the air. 5 days is a long time in weather. If I lived on the east Coast I'd be more optimistic, cautiously so given how long away it is.
