Default What a mess !

Met Office
Updated: 1206 on Sun 4 Feb 2007
UK Outlook for Friday 9 Feb 2007 to Sunday 18 Feb 2007:

Starting cold and windy over NE parts of UK with sleet and hill snow.
Elsewhere some brighter spells before cloud and rain spreads from the
southwest during Friday. This cloud and rain will spread northeast to
all parts of the UK over the weekend bringing milder weather to most
parts by Sunday. The rain may be preceded by some further snow for
northern mountains. After the week-end British Isles will remain
unsettled with further periods of rain, though with shorter less wet
showery intervals in between. Predominately southwest or west winds
will bring milder temperatures, although the far north may see near
normal temperatures and some further snow for high ground. Windy
condition are likely with gale or severe gales for west and southwest
parts at times through the week.

That seems to indicate a return to stormy conditions

Any snow will have to occur before Friday

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

Mostly dry and sunny on Tuesday, but rain, sleet or snow reaching the
southwest later, spreading slowly north and east to all parts during
Wednesday and Thursday. Strengthening winds.
