By this time next week, these fingers will be building
snowmen... how often do you hear a forecaster
mention snowmen making in a long range forecast?

Is that really her name...Kaddy.
Must be great when you offer her a cup of rosie.

Tea Kaddy ?

"No I'm a coffee pot"

Only if the UKMO is correct. The other models are going away from such a
scenario. Still early days but it's a knife edge job regarding lying
snow.

We do tend to get more than our fair share of knife edge situations
regarding snow at low levels, e.g the 29th Nov, but I don't think this is
one of them.

Worth a look back to conditions on the 25th Nov when it settled quite
readily down here, even on already wet surfaces :-

Assuming the current progs come to fruition, and confidence looks good at
this stage, many eastern areas will experience sub 516dam 500/1000mb
thickness by Wednesday and sub 128dam 850/1000mb thickness in the far SE.
Hence there will be lying snow.

Hi Jon,
Thanks for the informative reply. My concern is how far west the the colder
air gets. The cold is there but real the depper stuff make it far enough?
The UKMO is still the best this morning. The other models are somewhat
reluctant to move the whole block far enough West which would be needed for
inland areas, even in the SE, to get lying snow of any accumalation.
Otherwise we get this slack Northerly element ;( .
Festive regards,
Danny.
