There's a strong English bias because most posters are English. It is what it is and it's refreshing when posters discuss the UK as a whole and some do but plenty don't.

Also a strong South East bias.i like to think it's because they're all southern softies  only joking I realise it' a demographic thing

I just mean when a low pressure just sits in the English Channel for 48 hours bringing up a southerly, I'd normally expect ridiculous amounts of rain on the south coast, even flooding amounts - whether the temperature is 3C or 30C! Better leave it there though, I see we've got a bit derailed by snow volumes tonight on here and I'm partly to blame...

Longer term - D8 onwards - one can see the complete mess the UK is in. No coherent direction at all. I imagine if it is very cold at D8, that cold may just sit and sit over the UK for quite a while, especially if there's snow cover (oh no I said it again!)

I get you now but some of the new members on here must wonder whats going on when people are saying inches of snow to come and you say inch of rain

Sorry I don't buy it. When I view charts like we've seen tonight when the temperature is just above the threshold for snow, I expect an inch of rain, not an inch equivalent of snow.

Which charts are those then with temps just above snow threshold etc where we could expect rain

Where are these amber warnings from? All I've got on my met office app is a yellow warning for Tuesday.
