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

[vegster]

The beast from the east is on it's way I'm telling you !!!!
(I read it in the daily star )

The Daily Express was still puffing the Beast nonsense again with their saturday headline,....tagline was that it would be so cold that the salt/grit dumped on the roads would be ineffective in the temperatures a 'coming ....downwards of -9 C.

So,i'm pretty confident we can all stand down again for a week or so until the next ridiculous Express prediction.

 

[Djmiles]

As soon as I saw the cold blast headline in Fridays Express I knew it would all come to nothing, and it has. They're as bad as the Daily Mail.

I'd say that in the ever shrinking cold period (Mon - Wed) we might still see some snow / sleet showers.

From twitter:

Well, not much chance according to the latest GFS ensemble:



The Op run, sadly on its own goes for an incredibly snowy run up to Xmas.

The award-winning official "More snow tomorrow?" thread [2012-13 season]

This thread should be a sticky!

 

[Giraffe]

I am very confused. Some saying snow this week, forecasts not mentioning it, but media full of it. Are they just all talking nonsense?

Papa, today's update please.

 

[Sussax]

Started raining here in Burgess Hill, not cold enough to snow.

Good. Snow can f*** right off.

 

[Bean]

Will it snow tomorrow?

 

[CliveWalkerWingWizard]

Possibility of snow on Thursday ?

 

[Flex Your Head]

Possibility of snow on Thursday ?

Any snow on Thursday will be very short-lived as temperatures will be in double figures by Friday. And it will be wet and windy and generally miserable. Gah!

Any of the forecasting crew got an indication of the weather for next week yet? I've got Mon, Tue and Wed off work; what's the betting it's pissy and autumnal rather than crisp and wintry?

The models are all over the place, but I'd say it's 75% likely to be wet and windy rather than crisp.

Papa, today's update please.

A lot of the media are using data which is up to 3 days out of date. There WAS a signal for a cold week with snow, but that started to fade Friday night, and was gone by Satruday night.

We've for a cold day today and tomorrow, with a sharp frost over-night. There's still an outside chance of a little sleet or snow in places before the mild stuff roars in Thursday... we may even see it start as snow in places, but it'll be rain and milder quite quickly.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Looking mild, and wet (and windy) for Worthing for as long as there is good agreement:

[Hillian1]

Cheers Papa, but that means nothing to me.

 

[casbom]

IF the models are correct (and that's a big IF) they are indicating wet and windy weather for next 10 days or so, although obviously that can change, especially towards the end of next week. Apart from a transient snow/sleet on Thursday, no other snow is forecasted for those 10 days.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Cheers Papa, but that means nothing to me.

No snow. Rain, mild. windy. ok?
