I don't mean to put too much of a dampener on things but it is certainly a
possibility that if winds swing round into the east next week it could get
warmer :-O as milder mediterranean air is entrained. This would mean that
any
snow is only likely to be over high ground.

Just thought I'd throw that in eg

Will, wont we still get a few days worth ? The Med it not particularly warm
as the Algerians have recently found out :-)

Looks to me as though the air we'll eventually get will have come from
the eastern Med rather than the western Med though (where Egypt is
currently very warm), leaving there as a southerly or south-easterly
flow and then coming to us as an easterly. However we should get a
couple of days of cold before the warmer air arrives, and it may only be
temporary. Both the GFS and ECMWF models seem to suggest this.
