Default Something's afoot...

mesoscale run is to be believed! Both the NAE and the 12Z GFS (not
that I would put too much store in the latter) are really ramping up a
small low pressure centre on the south coast on Tuesday night into
Wednesday, with the potential for heavy snowfall.

Cumulative ppn totals are 20mm+ on the NAE, rather more on the GFS,
over 48 hours (i.e. by 12Z Wednesday).

I'm not suggesting this "will" happen, but it is something to keep an
eye on I think....


Yup, noticed it on the 12z gfs, but I refuse to believe it on the
basis of one run! Hoping for snow, but I won't be too disappointed if
the chance fades over the next 12 hours. The next set of FAX charts
could be interesting!
