April SnowCast (NOT an April fool) #uksnow

Slides
I have been watching this for a few days and things keep changing, but there is a real threat of snow and very cold temperatures next week. This is the 7am forecast for Wednesday morning. The snow was confined to the north (where it is coming from), then was pushed east by the GFS model, but now is predicted to be south and west. Keep an eye on this one.

Bantock Sunset

P65

It seems that spring has sprung, at least for a while. As 1st March is officially the start of spring in meteorology I am personally glad to see the back of winter. However, cold will return Sunday with a slight threat of the white stuff......

Back garden sunset

Spring seemed to have sprung today, but early celebrations will be short lived. It will get cold again soon. However, the result of the warm weather was a stunning sunset.

Snows a coming (again) - Simon Keeling forecast

Media_httpwwwweatherw_gwnor

Here's the latest snow forecast map as we see it right now. Since this map was drawn we have amended things slightly; more snow to south now, could be 5-10cm as far south as Hampshire. less snow for East Anglia, perhaps only 2cm and that in west Norfolk and Suffolk, very little to the east.

Main threat is coming in through early hours through central portion of England running from southern Pennines to Dorset, then transferring west.

5-10cm looks reasonable, and few seeing 15cm (probably southern Derbyshire and parts of high ground of Birmingham area).

Western Midlands and eastern Wales particularly affected Friday morning rush-hour.

Confidence not as high in this forecast as it was in last weekends event, but mod-high overall.
