I don't like the look of the wind direction on Friday, looks more southerly than south easterly sad.png

That was concerning me too, still time for things to tilt more SE.

A few flakes of snow hidden in the rain shower here. Not anything to write home about atm. May beef up a bit with evaporative cooling - we'll see.

Really hope that we get some decent snowfall on Friday/Saturday {doing snow dance as we speak/type}

Just a hunch dingdong. Dangerous to underestimate the gfs

Agree, v dangerous to dismiss gfs, however look at the vortex and jet profiles. It's just does not look right. Experience tells me this. Big danger really is secondary low Sunday/Monday pushes through the block, this is plausible, however I believe the block will hold firm and fight back

Well, although we have not generally had much in the way of snow, a very enjoyable and grounded evening on here!

It's been dry for nearly an hour now in Newport. The heavy precipitation is just a few miles away to the west. Argh!

Yeh - but it's rain here :(((((((

It's coming down more from the north now, behind the trough, much better snow chances but fewer showers.

Temperature has fallen to -0.3c from over 1.0c about 2 hours ago. Started as sleet/rain then quickly turned to snow. Lovely.

Oh if only these showers were all of snow would be lovely, I love it when we have a streamer of snow showers from the northwest, not loving this wintry muck hail showers

From what i gather,it's not that strong of a block and the cold pool over Europe is also nothing special.I just dont think it will resist too many attacks from the atlantic.

Could be a lot of fun in meantime though
