THe above is the 18z NAE & prior to that everything is snow that comes from the North-

as you can see that curvature of slightly warmer air - rain & sleet to the west & SW-

as it stands we cant really ask for any more- the 18z was a fair bit east but an outlier in the ensembles- so it proves nowt-

watch the radar- I think we will all be getting excited come this time tomorrow eve....

John, do you know the latest MOGREPS view?

hi col

have not access to them

worth keeping an eye on ian fergusions posts

[Col Berkshire]

It's a great chart, but no snow for me on that :-(

[Jimmyh]

Interesting bbc news 24 not even mentioned Monday rush hour think this is def still on!!!!!

[Col Berkshire]

Thanks John, have been following Ian, but he's gone quiet, so thought I'd ask, just in case

[Col Berkshire]

My family are shocked at me. I've been following the strat forecasts and made my own prediction that the cold and snow would start w/c 14th January. My mum even marked the date on her calendar when I first mentioned it before Christmas lol

[MarkQPR]

As a pleasant distraction from all the worry, I've added a few more frosty pictures on this thread.

As I said before, as nice as snow is (I have everything crossed), I'll be happy with a good solid frost. We had some beauties at the end of last year.

I've just got this nagging doubt it will all go Pete tong,again,been let down so many times before.please mother nature play ball and send that warm sector somewhere else

[john pike]

again a look at nae tonights update

i see that warm front way to our west

gfs 18z tonight well out of sync with the other models

do not rule some snow flurries for us tomorrow

[london-snow]

Well I'm going for a all snow event. I'm under the feeling that the snow and snow cover prior to the possible warm sector will aid to keep temps down.

[Mark Neal.]

Steve et all... Given the NAE take, does any of you guys thinking that it may overdoing the rain/sleet signal to move into more central areas. Perhaps a shift through today on the models, westwards? Thanks in advance!

[Col Berkshire]

Do we have any guidance on where it is moving now? I guess we can compare current track to latest prediction and then nowcast? Just a thought
