A severly weakened PV is pretty much guaranteed though, you could put £150 on that!

Rotten day here, bit of a sleety mix in some of the heavier showers though.

My front garden is slightly elevated, as such it loses water very quickly and I have to water it often in the summer. Walked across the grass this evening and it's sodden. I'm living here over 20 years and I've never seen it like that.  I literally splodged* across the grass.

*Yes, I did make that word up.

Thankfully we are looking at a dry week coming up, will take dry bright days over what we have endured these past few months!

The model thread has become very tiresome to wade through, dunno why folk want to spend the energy in either trolling or over ramping, would hate to be a mod.

Savage amount of wallopers though!

Charts are rather underwhelming snow wise at the moment away from Eastern counties of Ireland with winds from a NE quadrant.

Much colder of course though, we need some instability. 

[Rocheydub]

I use ignore a lot too. Mostly use it to educate myself by the likes of Tamara's posts.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

What a stunning morning, if we can't have snow then this I can cope with!

[gman144]

So met éireann have milderand rain next weekend and uk met have it chilly with showers. 2 groups of experts reading charts and seeing it different, who is right? Is the devil in the detail and one is way wrong? Who is your money on?

[Rocheydub]

Can't see how Met E are saying that looking at the charts. Maybe they just revert to the the common weather when they're not sure??

Just take the roads handy these mornings folks, family reporting black ice on the roads in Cavan, would imagine its the same in a lot of other places

Indeed, nearly came a cropper taking the dog out.

What's your feeling for next week Pom?

Snow heaven or another disappointment?

The 0z ECM was a cracker with snow potential for us from t+168 to t+240.
