South West England Cold Spell Discussion

[caz100]

does anyone think it will hit lower cornwall...????

[Bristawl Si]

I dont know if this is a ramp...but Im hearing 35+

is this correct....surely not

edit cheers Lynxus

If it did stay on its current progged track, i'd say in the Cotswolds "Yes". Highest total are just to the south and east of us - say, Chippenham thru' to Salisbury and over to Basingstoke and up to Newbury.

[Dartmoor_Matt]

25cm richard said but hes uncertain which is a shame.

[Duane S.]

I maintain that if you can't ramp this you may as well pack your bags and take up another 'hobby'. Even if it doesn't pan out that well (and bare it mind in physically can't be brilliant for everyone) it graet chart watching soon to be great nowcasting hopefully!

Currently -3 here, not bad for before 7 in the evening! Clear stary stars and a slight breeze. The calm before the storm?

Still getting over the hi res and human interaction model output from theis afternoon. Simply stunning...

Ahh, Mr Angwin has just slapped us around the face with a wet kipper. No snow until tomorow afternoon, & his words... I don't think it will pan out as the models are showing, ie, more a east based event.

[TimMB]

Temp droppping here about .1 degree every 15 - 30 mins. Current -2.2

Hope we get something!

What did it say for barnstaple? I missed it.

[Jayfromcardiff]

I hope it doesn't change course, snow is looking good tomorrow night.

[dogs32]

[Wilxy]

i think it will be further east on next run if its further west even better

[Bethany C]

ITV weather just said snow for most of england except the far south east and far south west. I'm hoping that happens!

[alex12]

Is there gonna be much tonight or is it all tomorrow night?

[❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️]

it's bound to downgrade, im just bracing myself...

[Bethany C]

All tommorrow night probably.

[Dartmoor_Matt]

Pretty much the same as here, further west of Plymouth looked drier, then snow on wednesday for the whole of the SW.

[SteveB]

Well the way I look at it is, before this major upgrade I was thinking maybe a small covering after maybe a little rain.

So if it does downgrade then so be it.

Come on guys - it's all in the thread. See Ians post a few pages back showing predictions (raw output) at 3 hour intervals.

Don't forget altitude will have a significant effect on ppn rates as well so places like Salisbury Plain likely to see more than lower areas

yep,looking good so far

[Devon-Nelly]

Brrr its cold -1.8c now with a DP of -3c. Could be on for -3c again tonight perhaps even lower

Just seen the local forecast on itv, and they are going for rain for Devon and Cornwall with sleet on the higher ground. I hope to god they are wrong

But still i think we will see some snow this week with any luck.

[Wilxy]

i think most of the west country will see a bit of snow at least even if theres a downgrade if not il be gutted and ashamed.

[khodds]

OMG. I have a headache and I feel sick... the anticipation is all too much!

[rowieboyz]

Temp is -6.4C now.

Does feel it too!
