Can confirm Leicester has snow!! IMG_3817.MOV

PARA SAYS NO TO THE ATLANTIC.. fi i know

A lot of members want to keep the deep cold going

Judging by those ensembles, when this easterly does arrive the air COULD be much colder than the OP's are showing atm.

That's the 12Z GFS from yesterday

I see, well the ECM is still a few hundred miles further SE with the low I think

Upstream low very similar to 00z

I present perturbation 1... JFF of course

This is simply unreal at this point... I'm in shock guys

With hopefully a country covered in snow

Wow what a difference a year makes, simply breathtaking...

Couldn't have drawn it better myself

Long way off but this is simply stunning

Northerly? Easterly? Cant quite tell

Don’t take anything in FI as facts, I was supposed to have a sleety mess according to most models on sunday this time last week but I did just fine! Upgrades nearly always appear nearer the time. IMG_3764.MOV

I’ll take that for now IMG_3760.MOV

I know I'm not the most knowledgeable on this forum but this idea of the Russian high disappearing when we need it doesn't make too much sense to me. Now I could be completely wrong but I believe it WAS the russian high that prevented real cold air from making it to us, due to the source being far south of Europe/middle east. Even then the air cooled significantly by the time it reached us leading to some very cold days and nights over the past month or so and with MANY marginal snow events in areas. IF that high was to gain latitude and move west we would be in BFTE territory and that is where a lot of us have placed hope in the SSW, its still not over and a resurgence of heights to our east is something I believe we will see at some point in the next 6 weeks. Lets keep chasing!

Way out in FI but look at the difference....

Hi, first post here, just wondering with all the talk about upper air temps, is there a particular stage in winter where they become less important or a point where there would just be more cold air available even from the NW for example?
