[Misc] The Award-winning official "More Snow Tomorrow?" Thread [2024-25 Season]

Milder with heavy rain and strong winds forecast for Monday and much of next week. Booo! Who celebrates it being 10 or 12 degrees when it's miserably grey, wet and windy? Gimme cold and crisp any day.

Bah humbug, tsk, gah etc...

let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Sadly, there's still no clear and consistent forecast for snow... it's cold and frosty for a few days though... which is at least seasonal.

 

[Flex Your Head]

Can't believe you'd rather have rainy, windy conditions over these. Wrong'un!

I took these pics on my way to work this morning. Beautifully brittle and bracing.

Isn't it a bit dangerous being that close to a nuclear explosion?

I guess you had a long lens

Although there isn't a single event to highlight, the model output at the moment is full of wintery potential.

This mornings GFS ensemble shows this.

Meteociel - Diagrammes GEFS

The snow percentage shows that amongst the 20 members, there is continually some that show snow for Sussex.

What we need is for a single event to gain support across all members, and be at shorter range.

The BBC weather for early next week suggests that the daily high could be 1c with a min of -2c… or a high of 12c with a min of 10c. That’s quite some spread!

I do love how pointless the BBC long range forecast is, it's either going to be cold or warm, no shit!

Latest from Met Office:

V V quick comment re snow tonight - tomorrow AM. New output from UKV, MOGREPS, NAE and EC offering varied solution(s) and huge uncertainty now in areal scope and amounts - i.e., SE / Home Counties / London area / SE could see more in some new progs (2cm or more in places) whereas other solutions in the suite suggest more focus to NW of London (Chilterns, over to Cotswolds etc). MOGREPS more widespread across fair swathe of central-S England. Signal now hinting towards a more easterly bias generally, away from W Country other than E Glos / N Wilts, but this detail not to be trusted. Hence much, much to play for. A nightmare forecast frankly.

Basically forget next week or the rest of winter, there's a chance we could see some of the white stuff in the next 12 to 18 hours! There might be a covering over the Downs potentially but hopefully it'll be the first snow we see this winter, and I don't think it'll be the last...

I'm sorry but was all that ancient Mayan text proclaiming the end of the world? Are we all about to be smothered by a snowstorm akin to The Day After Tomorrow?

No, I could quite easily write down on a bit of paper dating back 100 years saying that there will be a world war in 1914 and 1939 and the world is going to end in 2020.

Back on topic, good forecast imo, hope the trains are cancelled

So has anyone had some of the magic white stuff?

 

[Djmiles]

Nope. London has had some apparently.

I'm ay Purley on the train and its coming down heavily here.

 

[Flex Your Head]

It started as icy rain a while ago but is now falling quite heavily as snow (S E London). Not settling though.

My road right now in Southend on sea.
absolutely hammering down.

It's a real challenge, and enjoyable watching the models currently. There us huge potential showing across all the models, but nothing that stays forecast for long enough to discuss here. However i think that at some point in the run up to Xmas we will get a cold and snowy spell with north east it east winds. It's just a case of waiting for cross model agreement at a realistic range,.
