The model output has my interest for next week, I’m just wondering what day it’s going to go wrong

When upgrades to cold or warm begin within the 120 hr time range, you take notice, and it suggests a firm a signal to cold..

Still going

Nice to look at but you would imagine somewhere is going to get a fair amount of snow out of this set up.

 

[Taylorthesnowman]

British weather never fails to amaze me.just left for work and can safely say feels pretty mild . And yet on our doorstep is the possibility of some snow in just a few days. Madness

[cheshire snow]

Holy molly

From our lovely Germam friends (GEM) at day six an 18hr snow storm.

Have to add even at day six don't take it literally.

Nice to see the Met app showing a single snowflake for Sunday here.

I know it will likely disappear as quickly as it showed up but to go from mid December until mid January through any winter without the slightest hint of snow is unusual so I just hope that the patterns align to give us something of interest.

that said, I expect the very end of January into early February to be the time for snow as it coincides with when we are probably off abroad for a weeks holiday.

as for today, it was actually dry when I opened the door to take the dog out.

I think she was probably happy to be not getting soaked, I certainly was

 Winter back? 

Sweepstake tomorrow for when it all uncannily disappears. 

Stay tuned

Winds gusty out right now. Dry at the moment, currently 7C.

A nice extended output from the metoffice with a return to below average temperatures and wintry weather a real possibility and some nice charts showing up. It hasn't happened yet obviously, but just goes to show you can't just write off a whole month of weather.

A nice morning which is welcome after some of the previous mornings here. But will it last?

[frosty ground]

Looking out and not seeing water flowing down the paths is something new this year, shocking run of weather

Still there this morning but I’m trying to work out how you get 4.2mm of fog

In a word, No! First of forecast heavy showers has moved through and I am sure it won't be the last today. 

[Rain Lady]

Yesterday's swilling rain totalled 31.5mm.   Ground surface dried up a bit overnight,

 

[frosty ground]

Another day of rain, apparently it’s now 27 days of measurable rainfall according to a local Twitter account I follow.

[itsnowjoke]

Getting quite rough out

[cheshireoak]

5.9c blustery westerly  veering NW and the odd shower here in the marginals, clouds belting through. Interest building for next week. Polar maritime style NW'ers have produced in this part of the world and we are (over) due. Interestingly for here (East Cheshire) old codger farmer wisdom say the biggest snows have come from over Bosley cloud which would be a South Easterley-I guess from sliding midland or channel lows. Anyway at least there is a chance of something different!!!

[A Face like Thunder]

A bit of an oddity today. Bright first thing followed by heavy showers followed this afternoon by bright sunshine for a while. Wind has picked up in the last hour or two. 

[Scuba steve]

Blustery day with odd showers ,not going to get excited about snow potential until I actually see it falling ,lol

[cheshireoak]

sensible scoobs, sensible-unlike me who's getting giddy at the possibility of a change..........

Lol, played the game to often

[moffat]

You know I would take anything rather than this rain day after day, 

[severe snowstorm]

A bit of a blustery day today with gusty winds. Some showers at times and a cool feel in the wind, temperature reached 8.1C.

[weatherobsuk]

A bit of a naff day overall in having a inconvenient puncture on the A555 *thanks to a HGV driver for pointing it out* as I was off to attend a interview at the airport, after that was temporarily fixed with a spare, the skies gradually began darkening around lunch-time when I was southside viewing before the rain decided to lash down. A cold & soggy retreat back home to a nice brew and soup for my efforts.

[Dark Horse]

UKMO going for a huge frontal event next week. Wowza. With cold likely wrapping around behind so nothing mild sweeping in after. Very pleased with how things are going up to now
