Glad you said that... as a West Ham fan if you had said royal blue I may have to had put you on my ignore list lol.... I hope you give that Chelski lot a good thrashing today...

Hoping so too.....think it might be a draw though..... Hoping chelski get lots of cards including a few reds!

Liverpool v west ham nil nil atm....

Seems milder than forecast today. Temps of 4-5c being recorded all the way up to southern Scotland. Dew points below 0 though.

 

Can see the real cold air up in the Highlands...hopefully it'll catch the sleeper train south tonight!

The BBC have something for the West midlands around 5am Sunday and the MMN's have this, also 8:00 and 13:00

nmm_uk1-1-22-1_nwm6.pngnmm_uk1-1-25-1_aqj8.pngnmm_uk1-1-30-1_mub0.png

Interesting as the EURO4 doesn't have the Midlands down for any snow today or tomorrow which is a shame because other paramters such as the dew point are well within the snow limits. Edited by picog

Temperature here at 4.6C and falling.

Humidity is 65%, which gives me a dewpoint of -1C already.This is the effect of the drier air moving south. I would expect the temps to fall more quickly now.

Edit Gord - see you are also picking up on the dewpoints.

It really is much drier air now.

Yh it is a touch milder than forecast its good and bad good that extra warmth will create more moisture and bad that could be marginal but i belive when the band comes down it will bring the cold with it and its another late nite scenario again lol Edited by snowangel32

I swear that Euro4 model is useless. NMM was pretty accurate with the PPN last night. Hopefully it will be again tonight.

Don't remind me :(

So is there any chance of snow tonight then, or is radar watching all night?

12z GFS PPN charts look like a downgrade to me :( hardly anything for tonight now.

The Euro4 was in the same mode last night, it had nothing for the Midlands and nmm's was on form, spot on it was as some of us seen the best Snow in a long time.

Not saying the nmm will play ball tonight but the law of averages say it's the Euro4 turn :closedeyes: .....BUT WE'LL SEE :hi:

Thank you but I fear only a very cold easterly with a frontal attack from the South West will deliver for me......
