    It does look like a whopping front. Here's how the 12z GFS handles it:

    By 18h00 tomorrow here is the profile of the 850 temps and precipitation. Remember -5ºC and below at the height of the 850 temps (about 1500m up in the atmosphere) is an approximate yardstick for the difference between rain and snow:

    You got also take a note that the front is weakening as it approaches the British Isles, light to moderate snow for most. :shok:

    I very much hope that chart is correct EKB but I can't help but be dubious. Of course, I wouldn't be surprised if E.K got a foot of snow and all places around it are bone dry :rolleyes:

    Still find it strange that the MO haven't added us to the early warnings yet.

    You got any links to the latest UKMO fax charts? :cray:
