It's not so much the temperature as the amount of 'warm' rain that you
get. My time as a "Munro Bagger" brought home to me just how much snow can
disappear from a mountain side by a lot of rain in an active warm sector
in just 24 hours.

The latest ECMWF has a run of SW's from the 27 to the 1st of February and
by the end of that you may be scratching to find much snow on high ground
anywhere in the UK.


Hmmmm, 12Z ECM has the "blowtorch" SW'lies lasting no more than 24 hours!
