Possible Winter Storm December 27th

[essex coast matt]

Looking nasty down the east coast at the mo,this is going to catch a fair few out being around xmas time

[mickeyb44]

Ive been watching this storm since it first showed up on the models, as usual it has received many downgrades.

If it was going to be anything noteworthy I think the meto would have had yellow warnings on it today, this is

obviously just my opinion. And yes im a bit gutted that its not going to give me a decent storm in my area = imby.

 

Now that ive said this the met will prob put warnings out today !

Look on the bright side though, you only got 10 miles to travel to see a few flakes.

[mickeyb44]

Well the warnings show that the meto now have confidence in track, timing and severity of the low. So if your south of the midlands its a typical case of "nothing to see here, move along now".

[Darren Bown]

Metoffice have release their warnings on the track of the low across the country. It's more what it does when it sits in the North Sea as to what kind of wintry weather we will see. Metoffice state that only Scotland could see widespread snow, Northern England 200-400m+. Where it locates after could bring some bitter air for late Saturday/Sunday?

It looks to me as though this "storm" is getting less and less with each run.

The latest FAX chart for Saturday midday has it centred over the Low Countries at 995mb, it was 984mb off the Norfolk Coast at the same time in the previous FAX chart.

Really must be the most bazaar period of forecasting that has been in the last 10 years? I still have no clue what it's going to be like in 5 days time,  well, maybe high pressure, but nothing after that.....it's like the good old days again :-) 

[Costa Del Fal]

Met Office now showing sleet over the Midlands Friday night even some heavy snow initially for higher areas like the Black Country. 

[Skullzrulerz]

I think we are going to have until friday when all this low pressure confusion.com stuff is all sorted out

Been hearing that it may just go down south into the british channel?

[Mark Neal.]

Bbc Forecast showing sleet even down here Fri night.

[weirpig]

Think quite a few of us will see some of the white stuff  from this  feature.  Not to sure if it will produce anything substancial  brilliant to watch anyway.

Like that gives 8-10 inches of snow here....

[Darren Bown]

Metoffice charts shift everything SW with the low tracking through Wales and C S England before into France. Metoffice have cancelled their warning too. Let's see if they put a new one out or not?

[The PIT]

A none feature really now. Heavy rain the most annoying thing and ice the following morning.

Warnings still there though.

As a Northerner, I'm dissapointed with the BBC weather forecast for the tomorrow's snow. It seems to me it will only affect Wales, S England. We would'nt get any white stuff at this rate, we may end up a damp squid.

 

The only hope is the today's models should shift the low a bit north, then bingo we get a good pasting!!

 

We only got 2 chances today for the models to shift the low abit north if people in Northern England wants snow badly like me. 12z and the 18z.

Could be a very IMBY event latest update misses you by 0.5 miles. I can see snow chasing with mother in laws being left on sofas.

not the standard fare swings & roundabouts in the upcoming 48 hours - gritty stuff.

[Darren Bown]

Metoffice warning out for snow for much of England and Wales now.

[Mapantz]

I'm kinda glad I'm not getting snow here, these setups have a tendency to upset folks who are under a warning and then they don't get any lying snow.

A nice treat for those who do get lucky tomorrow though!

If the NMM is to be believed, then quite a bit of rainfall is expected in some places.

A windy spell to come as well, a bit blowy from many wind directions!
