South West England Cold Spell Discussion

[03jtrickey]

Here's one from the NW radar (remove if inappropriate).

Lots of ppt in the east, showers galore, and further inland than forecast by the GFS so hopefully a few might come this way later in the day.

Showers look to be penetrating into the west midlands which is a good sign, and not dieing out as quickly as forecasted.

A slightly more westerly bent to the winds rather than the straight southerly is helping.

Looks like we may get lucky at this rate if that radar continues as more and more showers move inland. Or could we all be just in a dream world.

[Wynn D Woo]

Maybe we should all stand facing North East and then suck in at the same time and try and drag it this way :lol:

Im feeling more hopeful that I might see at least a flake of snow, think positive!

fromey

In other words catching the edge but he just didnt seemed confident on how much West it would spread:yahoo:

Come on snow gods - give us a covering. Especially in Frome

[Wilxy]

NE England now have warnings thats where my brother lives hope he sends it this way maybe a good sign cause of wind direction.

[dogs32]

Take this lightly at present

[Jonesywilliteversnow]

breathe in!! hahaha comon more south and west plz

I'm getting a little more optimistic now, the wind has picked up this afternoon and after a high of 4.0C it is now back down to 3.1C so the dewpoint must be somewhere around freezing by now. It really does feel bitter now!

[Nights King]

I still think it is unlikely any real showers making it down here.

cold day though max of 1.6c so far.

Hi Mike...Yea same here getting more optimistic than yesterday.

But still not 100% putting all my hope into this...

But there is a possability this LP will move more West as time goes by..

GFS out soon as well I think

Hi Pat, well I think half the reason I'm more optimistic is just because the sun is shining and it feels COLD not just chilly as it has done since Saturday. Here's hoping the LP does do as you've said, that's probably all we need now in the short term.

The radar looks good for the first snow showers to arrive.

[Wilxy]

I actally would not get are hopes up cause i think they will start going in a more southerly direction later so it may not come further enough west.

[dogs32]

snow showers just on the other side of Chelt.....going to clip it I think..

BBC,,,Louise... NO Progress West on the latest..at the moment

More snow though to come over the weekend but wouldnt say where

[textmum]

Still breathing in deeply, but must remember to breathe out gently so as not to blow it back!!!!

[jethro]

Turn around, face West, then breath out.....
