Keith.
Just checked on the Met office fax charts, the 528 line is over
France on
2nd Jan. Probably back over Scotland on the next run.


You can really ignore the 528 line in situations like we're in now. I'd
hazard a guess that historically some of the worst snowfalls in southern
counties have occurred when that line is well to the north. What matters
is the lowest km or even less, not the entire 5km that is occupied by
that
thickness.

If I see a speck of snow here I'll let you know because by then the rest
of you will be all but buried!
