Interesting UKMO chart;

Also brings in a channel low like feature a la ECM!

Being picky, could be slightly better positioned however!

Sleet here in Delabole, settling on cars. Very, very windy too!

[dancing daisy]

You'll get your channel low and the whole of the southwest will get pasted. How do I know?

Snow event in 2010 - I had flu

Snow event in 2013 - I had flu

Today in 2013 - I have pneumonia. (As a result of not allowing myself to get better/resting properly after having the flu)

Whenever I am too ill to peel myself out of bed we get hit by snow events.

Happy to help!

I have slept on and off for about 48 hours, the shocking storm here woke me up, talk about mad weather! My patio table is currently in next doors garden.

absolutely were have to get daisy and do some data sheets and try a forecast.

but all jokes aside hope you get better soon rather have a fit and well daisy than a channel low.

So we have the UKMO and ECM showing a low in the channel area late in the weekend.

Apart from it still being 120+ hours away, I would urge a little caution currently though as there is a reasonable chance a less cold sector could come into play and spoil the party for some of us, as some output tentatively shows this morning.

Long way off yet but one to watch!

Well that was a windy night.

Anyway lets hope Cornwall gets some big snow for next week ;-)..... Think things are looking better for us now. :-)

Looking, as usual, the further east and north you are the more chance there might be of white stuff. For the coasties like myself I think for now, the warmer air will nail anything other than rain. Looking at the ground temps they seem so warm during the day, also suggests it will take a while for anything to settle.

Hope you are feeling better soon Daisy

We had some Snow but strangely it's only on the Pathfinder's Windscreen! Not on any other Car or any thing else.

[nettie]

Well the fence panels have survived . Woken up around midnight by the wind. Scared the life out of me. Dancing Daisy hope you get better soon.

[Bristawl Si]

I thought S Glos were getting some snow showers thru' the early hours? Zilch when i left home for work.

Are we still on for a bit of the white stuff this morning?

I see Sunday's LP still showing up - will it deliver cold rain or snow?

[Nights King]

Where have these frequent showers gone?

accumulation radar indicates hardly anything has fallen in last 6 hours!?

[Dave Kightley]

White out here. Everything covered. More hail though I must admit

Not much here overnight. Apparently had some downpours, but I haven't heard any of them!!

Ah well, the met are still predicting light snow shower at 9am for me, but then not much else!

Thanks for the forecasts aswell daisy hope you get better soon

I have seen a picture on Facebook of some snow on the road. Don't look much though....

[dec10snow]

I believe this is heading for you daisy....

I guess it only takes a dusting for everthing to grind to a halt in good old Blighty

[SteveB]

Some crazy wind and rain last night for a short time, at one point it sounded like someone had a hosepipe on full blast against our window.
