Check to see if that's the average, or it's doing a calculation of the mean etc. Also, try setting the software to display gusts?

Hahah, me too And yep, Northern Ireland looks like being the place to be tonight, plenty of cold air hanging around there, wintry to all levels, sleety around coasts with above average SST's though.

Just drew a map on where I expect there to be snow/wintryness tonight. If your area is not in a circle (like mine) then I wouldn't bother getting excited.

Would be nice if we had some good looking forecasters, would make everyone interested in the weather hahaha

HAHAHAHA, I just genuinely burst out laughing at this "And now let's go to Eno with the weather" THANKS GORDON, HELLO THERE, A LOVELY DAY TODAY WITH TEMPERATURES UP INTO TRIPLE FIGURES

Yeah I agree with Carl above, ignore her. She loves mild, hates snow, and is ALWAYS wrong. Much rather have Eeno back, or whatever her name is.

6.0C at 5:30, now 4.4C @ 18:25. This is good, but the humidity is shooting up too, a long with the dewpoint, ideally need that drier, colder air to dig down as soon as possible!

Lucky you, you'll probably see a good covering later!

You must be colder then, any snow on your end?

We have emergency dinghy's on my road for when it rains, which is every day of the year!!!!!

+6.2C here with a DP of +4.4C, DP will drop off later, I'm hoping the temps do as well.

That's odd! How high is that area? Temps around Manchester away from the higher routes are far too mild for snow, dewpoints currently are +2 to +4C around the region, mine's 4.6C!

Get in! Earliest sunset for this solstice has been and gone, 10 days until we start to gain around 2 minutes a day, by the end of March, sunset here is at 7:45! Just 3 months until the clocks go forward

Been back a while mate, just over in the NW thread though Maybe this will tickle your interest:

The point I was trying to make was that the lower the temperature now, the better the chances are to see falling snow later. The temperatures will UNDOUBTEDLY rise as the warm sector approaches, meaning they'll have to drop off even more. I know what you're saying, but what I'm saying is, will a WARM front with a cold sector on it's northern flank have enough time & energy to allow the temperature to drop 4-6C before it moves away? It's not around for long before it fizzles out, this is why the temperature now will have either a negative or positive effect on what falls later, depending on where you are, elevation etc.

I've tried to explain why temperatures now may reflect what happens later. You're just to arrogant to see it. I'm done trying to explain to you.

But it will though? Read what I've said....

You mean the uppers which won't undercut until after 3am, the same uppers which will be no lower than minus 4/5 Also, just in case you haven't noticed, a secondary area of PPN associated with tonight's front is spinning our way right now over Ireland, it'll be here in around 3 hours. It isn't particularly heavy, meaning there will be minimal evaporative cooling, aided in with the strong winds, you're left with a stagnant temperature which becomes stubborn to move until after around 3am when the modestly COOL uppers undercut what's left of a dying front. Still feeling confident?

Under cloudy skies and a strong westerly airflow with above average SST's after the warmest year on record, with positive uppers and a warm front approaching from the south west with an associated mild sector? Yeah you keep laughing my friend.

Ah it's almost 6C now, this is just too high, unsure of snow prospects for tonight now, if it was 2/3C, I'd be excited..

3.9C here now, those showers smashed that temperature on the head and it's gone down by 2C in the past hour, this is what we want!

I probably won't be happy either haha, still can't see it snowing here

This is what we need to keep those temps down to a minimum, evaporative cooling is fantastic

Yeah that seems a little strange, either an error, or coastal modification, so snow less likely here?
