Check out the wrap around.

At what time will PPN start to fade though? thats the question that should be on everyones lips in the SW.

Having had a break for some food (and drink!) I don't think the low is moving anywhere very fast. Wouldn't think the centre is as far south and east as Bournemouth. Indications here earlier were that is was moving away SE, but the barometer is dropping again now. I'd guess the centre is virtually at a standstill around Shaftesbury, Dorset.

Heavy Precip SLOWLY heading in to EAST glos......I think

Hi Pat, sorry mate cant reply to your pm as functionality is down right now, but I'm glad you've had a good dollop of the white stuff....Its going to be fascinating to see how the overnight pans out...You seem to be in the 'eye of the storm' right now...very heavy snow to your ESE and moderate snow to your north & west....I think you'll get an additional inch or two from the northern flank, but judging by the radar, the southern and eastern flanks will push north and then spiral away to the east and south (similar position to me in some senses) but snow nether the less! :nonono:

So we are coming up to the 21z (the second image along) on Ian's data. Does it match reality in terms of the radar ppn?

Pretty close I would say. Going by that we in Bristol can't expect much of the "real" heavy stuff until more like midnight - and then all through the early hours.

Please let it happen I want a day off tomorrow laugh.gif
