yep, somewhere is getting a pasting tonight, although nit's pretty tricky to see exactly where that is 

[Frosty hollows]

All warnings stop at Oxfordshire!! Typical

[Woollymummy]

I'm tempted to get on a train and head West with the kids as soon as it snows, a bit like a day out at the seaside but with sledges.

For once Cardiff is slap bang in the middle of a warning, makes a change! It's usually just outside of it haha.

Now there's a plan. Probably only time we'll see snow this winter. *checks trains from Reading to Bodmin*

Bude got a proper pasting last night, don't know how the hell i'm gonna get to work today

[Nights King]

Does a possible 1-3 cm over 200m warrant a met office warning I mean really how will I manage to drive to work in such treacherous drifting conditions

If they really though only above 200m, I'm not so sure there would be a warning, so it's a non committal warning imo.

Either that or the entire west country will be heading for the nearest high ground in search of snow, that'll be it lol

Could be our only chance of snow this winter so fingers crossed it delivers.

I thought I was bad

Yes I'm surprised that the warnings aren't further west because going by the latest euro4 the movement has a distinct southeast movement to it .

You can see it over Ireland the frame before it looks rather potent , be good to see if it can hold its intensity . 

[BM4PM]

The mrs gets me every year. “O look its snowing” so i shoot up out of my chair and all i hear is her snidey giggle.

I think even 14 might be an over-estimate. Not to worry, I am very used to being disappointed when it comes to the white stuff.

I for one hope LBAR is correct 

If the system doesn't move north as quickly as anticipated then the LBAR could well be correct, as it will get absorbed by the jet and scoot off east. Sorry to bore you all, but this interests me.

So what could this mean Karlos?

Well I'm hoping that it would aid the undercut scenario, but whether that would be the case or not I'm not 100% sure. For me, if it goes north I would of thought that it would only end up going over our blocking heights and sinking them, putting us back into westerly regime. But I could be completely wrong.
