That subject title looks like a tabloid headline to me ......... ;-)

To be accurate, it should read:

Early Warning of *possible* Heavy Snow Showers in the North

but then, such headlines aren't nearly as exciting. ;-)


I don't know what you mean ;-)

Given the cold air, 1000/500 thickness around 516dam in the far north

and instability to around 18000ft
http://www.unibas.ch/geo/mcr/3d/mete...mm22/NPKPP.htm there will be
heavy snow showers. The question is will they lead to disruption... hence
the warning.
