Snow watch Winter 2019/20

First proper potential for the winter on Friday - if you live in the Peak district and parts of Scotland.

Twitter says colder next week!

Exactly meglet - thanks OYBBK and Gloria, I'll take over from here

Titsywoo - I said the opposite! We would have a cold winter, I was very wrong...! I'm going with whatever you all say now lol

OK Titsy

AJ The Weatherman has a hunch of a big snow-dump on the south west at the end of the month. Fingers crossed it's more widespread than that if it happens...

I am fed up. It is only the promise of snow that keeps me going in January. But no hope of even a flame here in the Midlands. Just endless dreary rain !

@ Titsy and her waters.

Do we/will we have a Storm Brendan thread @OhYouBadBadkitten and @Gloriasmud? Might distract us from the lack of snow! 😔

Here you go, @TokyoSushi!

Thanks!!

OffTheShelfElf - GFS keeps coming up with colder conditions from mid next week onwards, so perhaps all is not lost when it comes to something wintry. Maybe don't break up that sledge yet hoochymamgu!

Daisies, daffodils and blossom in north Hampshire .

I can't believe we've got to mid January without the hint of a snowflake.
I keep checking the local 14 day weather, but nothing as yet for our area. Don't know about other parts.

Don't forget winter is 22nd Dec to 20th March ….so plenty of time for some snow yet (hopefully)

Weekend looks to be getting down to 0 degrees where I am in Surrey so we may actually get a frost or two! My bulbs are coming up but they always start to in January. The only downside is if we have snow in March they often get crushed as the daffs are a foot tall by then! I prefer snow in Jan or Feb for that reason.

My phone won't let me start a new thread so apologies off topic but what does the high pressure mean? I know it means settled but I have seen reports of tvs not working? I don't really watch TV so not too bothered just wandering why..

Link for you Cheninblanc. TV reception gets bounced off the colder air sinking, so TVs get a double signal from 2 transmitters instead of one, muddling the picture.

Had a wee bit of frost at dawn today in Edinburgh.
With all the recent rain, I found my winter coat has stopped being waterproof, so have ordered a new one today. It better be cold for a while now....

Proper frost here this morning is Wiltshire, a perfect bright yet cold winters day. Such a joy to see after weeks of rain and flooding around here. Still crossing fingers for snow!

Perihelion thank you 😊.
Frost here today. Looks like winter!

Foggy and frosty here in Manchester. Very atmospheric

Beautiful here today. Local Facebook guy is saying there may be something wintry at the end of Jan. Fingers crossed. I’m over it by Feb and want spring!!

flouncyfanny - I had a supply of fog ready for bagging this morning!

Delatron - after some rain passes through Sunday afternoon/evening, it's looking like it will be colder for a while so there might be something wintry, especially for the north/Scotland.
