Don't be ridiculous! :rofl:

I can assure you we won't be in the level 4 category in this part of the country! Where have you been this winter!

I hope you realise that it is the east of the country that will be affected by this easterly, we wont get anything major here I can assure you!!

You need to take a look at our region. See the photos I showed earlier of march 2013 that weather was extreme yet other parts of the region got none. At the moment the charts look to me like we could get some severe weather in this region. Predicted temps alone are predicted to be severe. Max of -1 on Tuesday for example. It is certainly not ridiculous  for those of us at elevation in the east of the region to be ready for some severe weather conditions. Although I don’t expect a category 4 although that could change.

Nice to see the Met forecast growing for snow showers developing across the region as early as Monday.

still time for changes but at least it’s getting into the reliable timescale.

as for amounts, i’m with others in saying that we’re not likely to be getting snowed in on this side of the Pennines but it’s looking more and more like a potent cold spell is just around the corner and with no marginality, at least what falls should be snow.

Didn’t manage an air frost last night which was really annoying. Don’t really know why, suppose cloud. Min 0.8°C.

Not quite as warm as I thought it would be today, max 5.6°C. Falling away rapidly now, currently 2.9°C. 

 Just catching up; surely it can’t have got even better!

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Saturday and Sunday mostly dry and sunny, but feeling cold in the wind. Colder still on Monday, with cloudier skies, and perhaps with snow showers probably developing.

 

 Terrible grammar; Don’t they proof-read these things?

Aye -14 at around 5000 ft ( 850 ) so high Lakeland around 3000 ft  -10 ,throw in a 40 mph wind and boom -35 wind chill , that's severe frostbite territory.

 At that time Z850 is only 4560 feet. Also Z900 at 3150 feet is -11°C.

No you cant assure us of that at all,  I have never been one for ramping and am always very skeptical,  but with the charts we have at the moment, to be SO negative, from a member of a weather forum, I find that strange.  

Of course we might not get snow, but we might, and do the charts we are seeing not exite you at all?

The ECM also picking something up at 120 now too, notice the kink in the isobars right over us = snow.

There was yes.  We were in the so called snow shadow here as well.  I remember the photo someone posted of the UK under snow with 2 green patches - one in the Manchester area and the other in this part of Lancashire.

Think this was it ?? Taken from the met office site.

HUGE UPGRADES AGAIN TONIGHT!

What I find interesting is the blob of intense snow in east Wales on the second graphic. It must be a more organised area as why would it be heaviest there? I think we are in for an interesting ride.

I still haven't told anyone yet...feeling a possible Facebook post tonight.
