Well the MOD thread continues with its “if it’s not an Easterly we’re not interested”  commmets for next week. Personally I’d take next week over any Easterly that just brings dry but cold and grey conditions around these parts. Could be some big surprises next week for many in the NW, it’s a similar set up to Jan 84 though back then the Atlantic was much colder with the AMO in its negative phase. Still I feel many will see falling snow at some point next week, lying snow is a different matter though but transitory falls almost anywhere wouldn’t surprise me.

I was coming home in the car wondering what the hell the huge 27 and 28’s in the sky just to my north were.

if they fell to the ground it would certainly hurt

Not bad from the Northwest is it?

Moki is probably on his 14th beer so might not here from him

As it stands at present, some western upslopes of the Pennines will be looking at perhaps a foot of snow from any shower trains...

[WillinGlossop]

This next week will hopefully bring surprises and wintry fun for everyone.... and unstable cold showery airflow with probable troughs in the flow....

And what day is this meant to occur

Yes but like last time, will probs fall as rain or miss us anyway, so no point getting hopes up.

There's 3 or 4 days straight where uppers are conducive to ground 150m+ for some substantial snow totals. It's a constant WNW barrage and so anyone exposed to this flow is likely to see shower after shower.

Monday night through Thursday.....

[Stratocumulus perlucidus]

12hr night shifts all this week so only just catching up now. Still not building hopes though.

Agreed..

If i were cfallon/Frosty ground at 300m i'd be positively excited right now!!

They could get plastered- the highest parts of Oldham (on the way to Holmfirth are 450m asl- there could be literally huge drifts by the end of the week up there).
