doesnt anyone like snow anymore?

or is this old skool u.s.w psychology at work

We're just all old cynics on here - we've been disappointed far too
often...

I understand the cynicism when it's all at T+fantasy but not now. The wet
bulb freezing levels will start falling tomorrow bringing sleet and snow to
lower levels in the far N/NE. The first signs of this can be seen in the
long TAFs with showers of rain and snow forecast at Aberdeen from 0500Z

with a risk at Newcastle from 0300Z :-

Updated advisory
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/...ngs.html?day=3

As the flow backs tomorrow evening it 's likely to get quite wintry for the
likes of Ken and Dave in NE England
(trough on the 00Z T+48 PROG http://www.wetterzentrale.de/pics/brack1.gif)
and Graham down in Penzance could be plagued by a dangler for days on end
:-)
