Low this morning of -6.7c already down to -6.5c at 21.00 Not saying anything about the snow, as I've seen these situations so many times in the past come to nothing or very little. Let's see what happens tomorrow:) Graham (North Staffs) 228 metres asl

I notice the Friday night snow risk for the S.E from enlivened activity in the North Sea seems to have gone from this morning's forecast although still a yellow warning for it. One down one to go. Dave

Just put for a short while a MODIS image from today filetered with RGB521 to differentiate between snow and cloud. http://www.meteosat.co.uk/Modis%202012%2003.jpg Cheers James -- James Brown

This may seem insignificant but the east wind has really picked up here in the past hour despite predictions of light winds today. Also a build up of cumulus. Temperature has fallen back down to -1.0C at 1230, probably giving us an ice day.

Not seen it looking so fragmented as this for the start of February - a prolonged period of SW winds I think has been the main factor? http://www.iup.uni-bremen.de:8084/ssmis/arctic_SSMIS_nic.png http://nsidc.org/data/seaice_index/images/daily_images/N_timeseries.png is also showing overall a bit lower than the 2007 period.
