Default GFS ramping up cold spell

Runs are pretty consistent now. Snow down to sea level right down to the

No way!

I'll believe it when I see it... and probably not even then.

In Cornwall, the only Max temps I've ever recorded remotely near those
figures in the 2nd half of March (lowest ever 5.0C) have been on an
easterly. This will be N-NW, and across an unusually warm sea.

It's OK now, the GFS has woken up now and has calmed down a bit.,,
it's currently showing maxima of 6 or 7 degrees on the South coast for
the three coldest days. This doesn't preclude snow showers but as
usual, the moment any snow stops, any lying snow will be on its way
out.

Our best chance on the Central South coast is, I guess, for an
overnight cluster of snow showers surviving the long march down from
Liverpool Bay, after a clear evening. We may then see half a cm of
wettish snow lying for for 3 or 4 hours at best. Ho hum.
