Cold Spell Next Week Discussion. (18 November) Onwards.

[Mapantz]

Well I wasn't really counting the south of England thats why I  said 'most areas'. Which will include: NI, Scotland, North of England and ROI. 

Heavy snow symbol for me at 6pm tomorrow.  TBH the cold spell is nowhere near what it could be but its better than being 10c and raining all the time, at least we will see some snow. Think its gonna be a shock to the system here anyway, down for a 3c max on Tuesday. 

 

Sorry buddy, while the charts are not quite accurate at regional levels at the moment, there is no indication of anything widespread, even in the North. Using 'most areas' is still way off the mark i'm afraid. 

[smithyweather]

Well this is my forecast for Tuesday, and If that happens I am happy enough. 

 

And with -8/9c uppers I would expect quite a large number to see snow.

That's the light snow symbol, and as far as i know, those forecasts are generated without any human input. I'm not saying you won't see any, but you do seem to be disregarding the quality posts that AWD and a few others made about the other atmospheric factors required.

So to recap, then, that's most areas except........The Midlands, North and South Wales, East Anglia, Central Southern, South West and South East England  ?  ( And probably most of Northern England as well tbh. )  . That's probably about 85% of the population who are likely to remain snow free.

I do enjoy the mixed posts! Tell me this.. who can predict at1800 hours Sunday 17th that a heavy sleet shower on Tuesday would - A: be turning more prolonged and heavy turning air colder..

-B: turning to snow.

Looking forward to seeing your snow pictures smithy.

Before it develops into one, let's nip it in the bud - this is not the time or place for another north -v- south mudslinging match.

I'm not expecting any to lie. I'm just excited to see snow because its been so long!

[ZONE 51]

Exactly.

I'm sure many would agree too. but there are many posts that contain negative thoughts towards the wintry cold spell and it is snow and is a fine line of wet sleet(that's the mostly rain stuff!)or wet snow to low ground especially south. I would say Scotland could have disruptive snow and higher areas south watch out!edit..just changed would to could! Edited November 17, 2013 by ElectricSnowStorm

With 516dam and -8c uppers snow is basically guarnteed.

You've still ignored the posts that were given to you yesterday. :/

But then again, you are in the most southern county in the UK, surrounded by a sea that is still warm from summer.

 

The south was never going to see a deep cold spell with widespread snow, that was never really on the cards despite what the tabloids want you to believe!

So true Its like we never get any snow down our road.

Just head halfway to Coleraine and stop, then you'll probably see a few flakes!

nor ours and you are further north then me 

[mardatha]

If I get some I'll fill polybags and send you it down

[stodge]

I have to say that in lowland East London I'm not expecting to see any snow whatsoever. I expect some frigid mornings which will be a bundle of fun for the early commuters.

 

I'm also wondering if the developing anticyclonic scenario will offer some fog and frost as that has the potential for some cold days and nights but we'll see.

[ZONE 51]

Don't forget we not all on a northern hill, if you are then expect full blown snowfall in places, the higher hills in and around London (Chiltens, downs..) i'd expect snow to fall but low ground be difficult to settle but I think be some snow falling at least on low ground south, even in London, next wk
