oh well ....

metcheck
On Friday, snowfall is expected to be more widespread as winds turn more to
the Northeast allowing more moisture to spread in from the North Sea.

I hope this includes the south east i would be very supprised
if kent doesnt see any snow next week!

Hi Neil,

Me too :-)

I think the end of this week will see a couple of interesting situations
develop which the models haven't picked up on yet, for example polar lows or
troughs. :-)

You can see how where the system is expected to develop just to the North of
Northern Ireland and run quickly Southwards, was *very* surprised to see
Nervous Nina mention a risk of sleet! could be substantially more than that
I'd expect.

hehe glad you agree , i noticed some showers developed today
and gave me some very light hail which was unexpected. I cant
see why some showers wont push through east anglia on a keen wind
towards this region. But ofcause met office class london as the whole
of the south east, note it being such a low risk but if that risk was for
kent
i reckon 50%+. Especially if the wind takes a north east track as this
took the mett office ofguard last jan and dumped over 8cm on the north kent
coast.

I thought her forecast on "Countryfile" was a very skimpy affair. No
charts for the latter parts of the week, no real rationale for the
progression of the weather as the week went on, no mention of next
weekend.

Not what I expect from the main forecast of the week, at all.

That seems to be the general concensus about that, Tom. Where is Will when
we need him? On holiday, busy or fed up with us?! ;-)

There was no chart for Friday surprisingly.
Sometimes they shy away from showing charts for the end of the
week if there is major uncertainty, but in this case aren't we
expected to have the northerly right up to the end of the week?

As for the weekend, well the CF very rarely mentions it at all.

I've never understood why there isn't an update mid-week, say Wednesday.

No mention of "AT LEAST IT WILL BE MILD" either.
