Simon Keeling (Weatherschool) now tweeting Eastward shift on the charts now means Monday's event mostly rain in the west.... did not stipulate how far west etc.

I had a further read and there are people saying the eastward shift is good for us in the west - this model reading is fun - all interpretation, location - loves it.

Cold week coming up and little sign of it ending and hope that Andymusic's foot of snow end of week comes to fruition.

GFS from last Sunday almost spot on for this Sunday!

Last Sunday output:post-2595-0-69459100-1358031731_thumb.pn

And actual: post-2595-0-71605700-1358031799_thumb.pn

For those who say the models 'have not got a clue'

yes but what did they say inbetween, lets be honest they been everywhere and with everything they have thrown out one of them was bound to match another.

looks like we going to get a nice sunny day today and sky news just showed snow north east wales and very far east wales but not getting down to the far south,it also showed some snow for far west wales but looked like showers.

Snowing in Belfast a good start to the day as far as Wales prospects are concerned.

That is good news Keith.

The 'projected' snow accumulations for the end of the week show us in a good light compared to some of the UK as well..... interesting.

fingers crossed it start soon,to me looking at Radar it seems to be coming south as it hits the cold air it seems to be coming more west and I think (probs not right) that west wales could have it over them later in the day. have a look guys on rain radar and it does seem to be coming our way into wales certainly more than they showed on tv early this morn.

Matt Hugo just tweeted snow area not including Wales today and tomorrow Wales and Ireland only going to be rain/sleet.

New this would not happen for us, just hope there is a shift to allow this not to be the case.

Not even gonna look at next week,were supposed to have snow this week,they are saying snow next week,then by next week it will be rain,finding it really difficult to understand what went wrong. It is freezing outside,I suppose that's better than the mild mush of late

I suppose it is good to get the cold over us and hope we get some surprises. We might get trough development which can throw up these surprises and if it is cold it will most certainly fall as snow and stick around. Long range cold looking good but we need the precipitation to get the white gold!

bbc weather forecast just said rain for most of wales tomorrow sorry.gif

It's actually really funny, some of the BBC forecasts show rain when in real life they were snow, an example:- November 2005 was a forecasted rain event, just wait and see :)

It does affect us. Wales is not part of the alert. Must be a Health Protection Agency thing that Public Health Wales haver signed up to.

I think you can take it as read that we will be affected by very cold weather too

Now snowing in Isle of Man ,Concerning rain tomorrow across the west UK remember 2010 the Met are more concerned about what"s happening around London and the S East because they are based there,so remember that forecasts in western UK will be vague .I remember weather warnings flying out for central and eastern nothing until later on for Wales ,the only met man to watch is ian fergesson forget the rest he"s based in S West.
