I see that the 12:00 GFS ensemble has three members which bring the very
cold air into London in around a week's time, albeit only briefly in
each case. (Where by "very cold" I mean 850mb temperatures of -9C or
less. Another member bottoms out at about -5C.) Surprisingly, the
picture for Wick isn't that different.

Belay that. I don't know what I was looking at, but the chart has gone
now!

Yes indeed! I see that by Sunday, the GFS is siggesting a day max
temperature of 13 deg C over Southern and Central England although the
cold air (0 deg C max) isn't too far away... over Denmark and
Northern Germany.

Knowing how variable the GFS is at this range, all is not yet lost,
I'd say. But I won't be placing a bet on any more snow in the south
this Winter!
