Pembrokeshire dangler next weekend then with wintry showers?

You never know Marcus wind coming from right direction .This latest gfs chart looks promising for Saturday with-5 to- 10 uppers and bitter wind.

I will go one step further , looking at the models ThunderSnow looks a very real possibility in West Wales this weekend, with snow even settling , as Im sure there will be some very strong convection with that bitter airmass coming over a relatively warm sea surface....    

[PeteB]

Wind is really picking up here. They must be expecting some severe winds tonight as the Flintshire bridge will be closed from 6 this evening. Think it's only ever been closed twice before.

Anyone know when this storm will peak? It's blowing a hooley here now, with flickering lights, so just want to be prepared. Also posting this on the Barney thread.

[dragon falls]

Still blowing like mad here 55 on the weather station just now !

[snefnug]

Hmmm, sounds wild out there, but power held fine (thanks SP). On reflection we have had much much worse and power outages in the past. Our part of the valley runs South to North , with wind coming over the hill behind us from west we were fairly protected.

Hope Y'all stay safe.

Cooling down process has started we may should see falling snow Saturday but settling snow is uncertain , with normal temperatures returning next week with another cold shot on the cards, for a week Saturday

Typical! Always cold or snowy a month before xmas!

[DeepSnow]

Quiet in here considering we are about to get our first cold spell! Though im expecting to be too far south/west and low down to see any snow, it will be nice to have some cold air and frost for a change! Just hope we have many more cold spells throughout the winter!!

[keithlucky]

Still a possibility of seeing some snowflakes start turning to snow in north Wales around midnight .Colder air pushes south  Intersting weather coming up at front moves west to east further sleet/snow

good to see the council out gritting this evening!winter is on its way folks.might even have a little flutter on it being a white Christmas as well lol

[kar999]

Ground white over due to heavy hail showers and gritters been out over an hour ago.

[beatpete]

sleet here at mo

[kar999]

Very wet snow falling consistently now. Further inland and mountain tops should be getting a good covering.

There seems to be a streamer setting up off Anglesey and heading Southeast with the Valleys' name on it, almost like December 17th 2010 all over again! (that's if it was ten degrees colder).

Snowing quite heavily in penpedairheol now shame the ground is not so cold but a good start.

[Guest]

Just started snowing in the valleys Cefn Hengoed

[snowy36]

Nice surprise tonight, hopefully the first of many this winter.

[Jackfrost]

The fact that it's snowing heavily and starting to settle here is a good signal for the rest of the night.

[CRACKPOT]

Nasty little prolonged effort here in Gilfach Bargoed - nearly 30 minutes now, temperature down to 1°C.

 

So I get to see snow in November but yet the winter will slowly whittle away and no more to be seen!
