Snow watch 2017/18 Part 2

[OhYouBadBadKitten]

Just in case we need this early next week

I’m keeping an eye on this thread and netweather - we are driving up to Acharacle in Scotland next Friday for half term. Hoping to ski at some point so some snow is good, although not whilst driving up thank you!

Norf London.

looks like snow for Tuesday and is perishingly cold already. Was hoping the cold snap would be quick but forecasts look more like 2 weeks?!

Meh. OBBYK wanna swap homes?

South coast, 86% chance of snow on Tuesday according to netweather. Probably still a bit early for you to comment Gloria and Kitten but I can’t help but get a bit excited. 5 year snow drought down here

waves to neighbour River !!! It's a bit warmer here tonight, but am not believing a thing until gloria and OYBBK confirm it !!!!

any forecast for the South East?

It was bitterly cold earlier with a sudden rain shower that was trying very hard to be hail or snow.

we need a thread about next week

Yes I think so Spring, I'm excited already! And it will be a total let down because we never get snow here!

sorry I'm awol. Got flu and a temp of almost 40c. I know the sky was blue today. That's about it

noooo! Im in the Caribbean at the moment, and don't want to come home to snow

lol,same winteyr miss it every time

everytime i make a thread its like tumble weed

get back to bed kitten and keep warm its not till monday/tuesday

seriously take care

Get well soon OYBBK we've a few days yet before the possible snow!

OYBBK nooooo, get well soon! If there's is snow next week you can't miss it!!!!

OYBBK - I hope you start to recover very soon. Look after yourself.

Twitter weather feeds noting an easterly blast next week, with potential for sub-zero temps and ? heavy snow.

Get well soon OYBBK.

I am last man standing here, everyone else has had the flu,

Cold here this morning but dry.

Aw, get well soon OYBBK and much for you.

Thought I'd attempt a brief summary-type thing for the weekend and next week.
Saturday ~ hilly areas might see snow but rest of the country, more sleet/rain
Sunday~ nicest day of the weekend but cold 1-3C

Monday ~ another cold day, similar to Sunday. A band of rain starts crossing the country from Scotland southwards, Monday afternoon, so could provide a bit of a snowfest for some parts, as it moves slowly across the country Monday night and through Tuesday.
Wednesday ~ nice day, perhaps snow showers for some but really cold, temperatures barely above freezing.
Thursday night/through Friday ~ another band of rain attempts to move in. Could be another snowday for a lot of the country.

As usual, hope I've got some of the above right!

Everyone's so lovely! Thank you. Night Nurse was a good friend last night.

Plenty of and for you OYBBK....hope you're on the road to recovery. Thanks Gloria, fingers crossed for snow days !!! It's absolutely arctic here today

I wish some of you were here to deliver real I can't be bothered to make any.

I agree with Gloria.

Monday main risk I think is higher ground in the north and the far se.

Tues, lower ground in the north and central areas of England and northern wales. Far se.

Weds - snow for most. Maybe not central southern areas (guess where I am

Thur - some snowy stuff

Fri - maybe my turn.

Take above with giant pinch of salt, you'll have some from the salt supplies you may need for gritting. It's just one model, ages away for precision and delivered by someone who is frankly a bit crap at thinking atm.

but anyway.... let's get this snow party started. We need a balloons emoticon and a St Bernard's with a massive barrel of rum around its neck.

glad your back kitten

I have no St Bernard, no rum, and most definitely no salt, due to council deciding our area is not worthy of little yellow salt thingys !!! I do however, have the heating on and a cup of tea !!!!

fully prepared then whywon't

Thanks Spring :)

I am hoping for snow, we haven’t had any here (outskirts of Brighton’s) yet this year

Pesto, you should remain hopeful about next week.
