Harsh Climate

Probably an old subject, but anyone got a link to where Steve Murr posts now? I heard on twitter but can't find him anywhere. Miss his invaluable input.

Looking at today we might see a little sleet/ wet snow as this band from the west pushes in.

From looking at this mornings output I think we are just sitting on wrong side of marginal. Snow reserved to hills of north/west yorkshire perhaps penetrating to lower levels at times but struggling to settle. That is my current view on thursday. But like that snow event a couple fridays' ago, things can quickly change and it's still a possibility for appreciable lowland snow thursday.. Albeit a small chance at this stage.

Yeah arpege showed most of England getting a pasting Thursday, just other day. Funny though most people wrote that model off a couple weeks ago, but it nailed quite early that massive snow event not long ago across parts of Yorkshire!

Yeah hopefully ecm is onto something, could be some interesting overnight runs.

The ECM tonight is an absolute dream, but usually this far out any sweet spot if there is to be snow usually ends up at least 100/200 miles north or south of where initially predicted. Can't be disregarded, certainly on the table but I'd give probability at this stage of around 5% that chart verifies. Some snow to lowish levels about 20%..

Wow he's still a teenager, I thought he was in his mid 20s with that tash. Good look to the lad

I don't now what the Aprege eu is drinking, but I want some!

Temperature shot up to 1.4c here with rain . Cars all iced up though.

Yeah, looks like heavier showers are starting to cue up out in the irish sea. Temperature 0.1c here, expecting all snow if it doesn't rise as the showers approach. Dew point -1c should help though.

Here they come, already showing as snow on radar!

Nice, hopefully might get a little covering

Tonight into tomorrow morning has all the hall marks of the 'Aire gap' coming into play. Winds perfectly aligned to bring showers through settle > skipton> ilkley> Otley. Might get a nice little covering! Other area of interest looks like areas just east of manchester (cheshire gap). Peak district > sheffield > maybe rotherham to name a few places. Think showers should be more organised here in general. At the moment can't see any snow sunday, looks far too south of us, although southern parts of south yorkshire match just catch something.

Also showers coming into the irish sea might be worth keeping an eye on later.

Yeah a tad disappointing that, hopefully the precipitation to the west can get heavy and back build.

Started snowing now. Temperature 1.9c

Looked like it a few days ago, but now clearly not. Unfortantely I think it will be all but cleared us come 1-2am.

Nice shouldn't be far off me then matey, although your a bit higher up than me.

Expecting the transition from rain to snow to occur here between 11pm and 12pm.

temp dropped 0.4c here in just 10 mins. Now 3.5c

There's no question it's going to change over to snow in the areas already mentioned but the big concern is how long will the precipitation last? I just cant see it lasting long enough for any medium-big totals. Will probably be just be more of a novalty event seeing it hammer down with snow for a short time lol.. Still some could wake up to a little covering.

3.9c here
