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

[Papa Lazarou]

1mm of rain/precipitation would equate to 1cm of snow.

As always - we first need to get the synoptics / temps / wind direction correct. Snow often appears from small features in the flow once it's cold enough. The key element of the output is that there is more chance of a proper blocking High in about a week's time. If that gets more support, then the fine details will be something to discuss on a day by day basis.

If you want to see some snow ***LIVE*** this is a feed from Fife, Scotland.

Hang on - where's that little puppy sprung up from?

Hang on - where's that little puppy sprung up from?

Those in the know say it's caused by a little 'polar low' (which is just a small localised low pressure cell) which passes to our north overnight, dragging slightly colder air from its north. No snow down here though - but possibly on the downs - it's very borderline though.

Sunday looks more interesting here and into next week.

Hail, sleet and rain all mixed together in Burgess Hill right now.

I know this as I have just been to Tesco to get lunch and am currently sitting at my desk with steam coming off me.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Or Glencoe snow

Hang on a minute, do we have some action, some snow action?

I also see Net Weather is predciting an 80% chance of some on Thursday 22nd Jan. Too far off I guess to know yet though.

Gav, a fellow weather outlook contributor does good weather videos - this is worth a watch.

It is interesting but BBC still have westerly's and average temperatures all next week, no hint of any cold weather. It could be a snow lover just making things up imo

So close yet so far, as usual for us coastal residents. Roll on the long warm summer days had enough of this wet dirge.

I like the model discussion threads on the Netweather site. However the good posters are often outweighed by those who are ONLY interested in snow to the exclusion of all else. Many of these shout anyone down who doesn't agree with their biased form of hopecasting. It's a shame as there are some brilliant amateur weathermen out there.

Heavy snow in Brecon.

Gav does like snow, but he makes a small income from his forecasts (via ads etc) so relies upon his reputation as a forecaster to keep his traffic up. In my opinion he's honest and reasonably un-biased.

 

[carteater]

its gonna sleet in bn6 tonight

 

[Giraffe]

Any reports of the white stuff out west yet?

 

[Cloggie]

Snowing in Birmingham. Makes a work trip up here worthwhile after all.
