First snowfall for Dartmoor
 
Looks like being on the back edge of next Sunday's cold front (maybe up to 5cms
above 400m asl). Classic meridional extension at T+120 on DT12Z GFS. Snow
showers to follow down to 200m asl on Sunday night into Monday.

Looks that way with snow showers for me in couple of days following that.
It's a bit of a long way off though I would have thought, to have much
confidence , especially with the charts changing quite a bit with each run.

But there is a consensus developing. UKMO shows the same upper air evolution. If
ECMWF comes aboard again then at T+120 confidence must be growing. Also
consistent with last week's jet stream pattern which I discussed and said was
not favourable for a return to zonality. Obviously the detail changes but the
broadscale signal is now much clearer.

Could give our rainfall a boost, now up to just 1.7mm this month. A
decent dangler at this time of year can drop 20mm over a few hours
in a very narrow band. Can be a bit annoying when it's been raining
virtually all day, & Falmouth's been dry & bright. (OK the other way
around of course).

Only dropped to 10.3C last night, due to the fresh north wind. Coldest
night of the year still 3.9C way back on 27th September (which was
easily the coldest Sept night I've ever recorded - absolutely no
wind).
