Thank you for that.  All in all, for those of a wintry persuasion that do not live in Cornwall, a decent Det run then.

As ever though, low confidence at how all this plays out and affects the region on a localised scale.

Although the ECM does seem to offer prospect of LP being deflected away towards S Ireland?

As i said in more detailed post earlier one suspects this wont be clear(er) until Thurs morn?

Certainly the way the ecm is currently playing it good accumulations anywhere east of Cornwall through to the Midlands and beyond leaving out Mapantz land of course. The low is over Cork 968mb 1200 Friday

Observation, Met Office warning Thursday: Its place on the matrix is one step from Amber.

Not too bad I suppose

 Can someone give me some pretty model pictures please to show my mum   ? I’m telling her to stock up on whisky and want to show her why. 

[Jayfromcardiff]

Is anyone else fed up of the model thread? So many posts contradicting themselves. Can't be bothered going in there anymore just going to stay in here where it's friendly.

That original post should of course have read "east of Cornwall" not west. Now changed

Evening all, in the hope that it's white at the end of the week and definitely not wet, I've penned my excuses. If I'm arrested for kidnap, I hope you'll all come to my defence, if you have a whip round for my bail I promise the drinks will be on me.....

 

Oh beautiful snow, you've kept me awake

Watching you fall, flake after flake

The heating is off and I have grown cold

Doesn't stop me feeling like a six year old

But we're not all the same, my hubby, he's snoring

Silently I ask, how can THIS be boring?

Where did it come from, our love of snow?

Is it tales we were told as we did grow?

A Dickensian Christmas, that Victorian twee

Stories that were told at our mothers knee?

But that season has gone and Easter is nigh

Oh finally, at last, you fall from the sky

Winter, was it always your intention to bring

Late season joy, stick two fingers up to spring?

So is this it, the last hooray, the last gasp?

Or will you lock us in with your icy hasp?

If this is it, winter's going away

No questions asked, I'm going to play

But hubby's asleep and my children have flown

Sensible, mature with babes of their own

They live far away, well all but one

So quietly I dress and off I do run

Will I get into trouble, do I care

As I knock at the window, ask 'anyone there?'

A face it appears, eyes full of glee

It's my baby's babe, 'Hello Nanny!'

Aubrey my dear, will you come out to play?

We can dance, roll and shout before it all goes away

I've got my brown coat and we can run wild

And here in the snow, you can be Gruffalo's child

Does it matter if she's tired and grumpy by tea?

Mummy and Daddy yelling at me

'Mother grow up, you're not young, you're old'

'What possible joy can you see in this cold?'

So I'll say I tried, to infect them with this affliction

To instil this desire, this addiction

But I failed in my aim, although I really did try

To pass on my love, of magic that fell from the sky

And so it's my duty to the next generation

To pass on this love, this veneration

For Unicorn kisses and fairy dust glitter

That comes from heaven when the weather is bitter

There isn't an appropriate emoticon for this.I love your work.

Thank you! It's just whiffle that spews out what's left of me brain.

Will be interesting to see where the Countryfile forecast sees the snowfall being in the next 3 days. This/Fri will just be for fun as there are various ways it could go by the look of it!

[eddy88888]
