Slow-moving frontal systems, containing some very mild and moist air, look like bringing 20 to 30 mm of rain quite widely but perhaps nearer 50 mm in a few locations.

[Steve C]

Looks like some of us might receive notable rainfall totals over the next couple of days, from NMM6. :unsure:

safe to say

 

i hope this is wrong

is it not like the snow charts, where anything a week out is in FI and likely to change a great deal, or is it different with storm forecasting?

[JennyJane1]

also if i read the charts right it looks looks this storm emily impacts right down the east coast and over me?

for the moment it seems calm here if a little overcast.

Someones gone a bit OTT With the Sandtex paint.

Appears winter has been cancelled in Milton Keynes, we had to close them as they were giving false readings for the snow depth cup, they phoned this morning with over a foot of snow (probably mud)

I'd heard it wasn't very good .... the ice rink was plastic etc - was actually planning to go there with Mr P on our day off so glad we didn't bother - shame really as Campbell Park would be the perfect venue for a winter wonderland but this was more of a blunder land !

[Eskimo]

I mean...that wouldn't have even fooled me if I was 5 years old...Just shocking! (assuming this picture was taken in MK)

The models are going for 2 options

Dry and mild cack

Wet cack.

Persistant and at times heavy rain hereabouts for the last few hours. Certainly making up for the recent very dry conditions.
