I hope so, and going by tonight's models it really is set to be a very cold and frosty start to 2010, with the GFS very much following the ECM lead in bringing some very cold air across the UK for at least the next 10 days.

When you have cold air, snow is possible and although it may appear dry for much of the time for Wales, February 2009 proved that snow can come from a variety of different sources.

Fingers Crossed.

Blwyddyn newydd dda i bawb ar netweather!

Temperature is down to -6.4C at the moment. Currently around 10 inches of snow which has frozen hard, its hard to tell as it drifted a lot. Max temperature yesterday was -2.1C. Going for a walk in the mountains soon where there is rumored to be 18 inches of snow above 500m

[welshawb123]

Happy New Year to all, hope everyone will have a great year ahead.

Well looks like its going to be cold, but will lack of preciption no chance of any snowfall. It always seems the same, we get a prolonged freeze but with it no preciption. Then when it does come its always marginal and in more cases than not it rains.

Sunday through to Monday has now been downgraded and no snow as predicted earlier in the week.

[DeepSnow]

Had a low overnight of -1.8C, not all that cold compared to others. Temp now rising at 0.4C. Maybe a chance of the odd shower later thisevening? also both metcheck and net weather show a chance of some light snow overnight saturday into sunday in the forecast for my area! I will be surpised if it does!

[loadsa]

Happy New Year to all

Just been on Acuweather sailing report for Mumbles Head for tomorrow to see what the sea conditions are and they are forecasting snow for tomorrow night.

Woke up to a low of -6.4, outside buckets of water frozen solid! With the charts showing it to get much colder still I am going to up the concentration of antifreeze in the car!

If anyone in West Wales theres quite alot of snow showers over that direction heading south,can see the CB`s from here.

And yes happy new year all.

Very cold out there this snow is going nowhere.

Weather warning now out for much of Wales 4pm onwards.

Outbreaks of rain, sleet and snow during Friday evening and the first part of the night, coupled with freezing temperatures are likely to cause widespread ice in places. Falls of a few cm of lying snow are expected locally.

[Hywel]

Had 2 light snow showers in the past 40 minutes

We need to watch the wind direction at the moment neast direction needs to switch to a more to the north , hopefully a irish sea streamer can form fetching showers straight over us.

[J10]

The wind direction is set to move NW later this evening and with a few troughs in the flow, this could well pep up convective potential.

As is aid in teh warning a few Cms of snow is possible in places.

There remains a chacne of further wintry/snow showers over the weekend with NW winds at times.

As for Sunday/Monday, it was never likely to push that far north.

[Marcus_surfer]

Off to West Brecon Beacons today, hopefully see some snow showers later.

[DeepSnow]

Looks like we could see some showers later and overnight, hopfully of snow! Temps shot up thismorning, reached 6.5C at 10:45am, now gone back down to 5.3c and seems to be falling slowly. Fingers crossed for those showers. Is there any chance of seeing anything tomorrow night? or tuesday? as netweather seems to give us snowshowers tonight/tomoz morning, tomoz night/sunday morning, monday and tuesday. I hope to see something in the next few days then if they are right! wind seems to be coming from the W/NW.
