Hi, Paul,

Without doubt! My daughter is to pick up at Darlington station on
Friday, transport to Copley, then a return to a party in Darlington,
pick up in the early hours and return to Copley.
I looked at the chart and think it's a definite by the law of Sod.


With 850hPa temperatures between 0 and MS5 degC and a strong gradient I
would not think any frontal preciptation would fall as snow, unless above
1000m. In the convective situtation behind it's a different matter.
There's nothing to worry about there, let the party go on !

Joe
