I hope it gets far enough inland to affect me but that seems very unlikely ... but hopefully it will be far enough north to give your area a good amount ... as you seem to have missed out on the bigger totals yesterday. Good luck !
Do you think it may stay on that more northerly course? .... Is there anything from stopping the system from pushing ppn inland as alot of forecasts seem to have the ppn hitting about 20-30 miles inland and just slipping southwards and exiting once more.
Is there meant to be any prolonged showers tomorrow or not? ... Forecasts suggested it previously yet seem to have backed away from it and suggest little in the way of ppn, despite the metoffice weather warnings still being out.
A few flakes have started here now ... Temp is at 0.1 ... Dew point is -1.59 ... can anybody clarify what snowfall distribution there will be tomorrow? ... The BBC seemed quite bullish yesterday of there being prolonged and heavy showers for all of the regio but looking at the GFs, the low seems to enter alot further south. Who is liable to be correct?
Seems that way, with no high hills to really pass. Will the intensity of the clups of showers round the borders will shuttle south as the main low pressure sinks southwards?
Quite abit of snow here, not seen anything like this in quite a while ... Powdery snow still coming down heavy, say a bout 7-8cm here already and the branches of my very privet are getting weighed down ... first time I've sene the snow sticking and accumulating on the top of the gate etc. ... would take pictures but my usb ports aren't working ... Temp is -0.6.
Cheers for that link stumathers ... but what is causing the lower temps and dews there? ... is it evaporative cooling? ... as the 850's are a dergree or two lower here and the thicknesses also.
How come places further south in the midlands are reporting heavy, settling snow whereas places further north, such as sheffield are reporting rain, even with much better elevation? Evaporative cooling?
Hey all, great model output from the 12z's ... especially good for the eastern part of the region when the very vold (potentially bitter winds set in) ... However, I'm going to be away from the models for a few days as I'm in London and was wondering what snowfall totals I could expect upon getting home in suth Sheffield on the 2nd January? How much could I receive from the fronts moving in or am I too far north? Thanks in advance.
How do you think Sheffield at 190m asl will fair? We are south of the region so elss favoured, but slightly more favoured in the west. Will having a tiny bit of altiude help? Thanks.
I know, it is quite odd ... hopefully it wont loose much intensity on its way to you as surely the biggest hurdle is getting over the pennines and with so much instability about, should be fine once it's past.
It looks like it could mate, maybe losing abit of its intensity, but the showers look to be travelling straight east to west, so should hit you roughly bang on.
My dusting is getting replenished by very fine grains of snow with perhaps some more heavy ppn to come ... may actually reach 0.5 cm by midnight ... quite a funny night really.
