Virtually the whole country with at least a dusting this time next week, according to the latest GFS.

And an easterly incoming by T168. Swings and roundabouts continue.

GFS currently on track as the best of the winter so far. 


This at 171hrs is brilliant

Not sure it will necessarily be the best of the winter, depends if the high can build to the NW rather than slowly sinking into Europe.

Belter of a GFS run. Probably the best so far (considering the short timescales)

GFS 12z certainly not a run for the wrist slashers. This is why one run should never be taken in isolation. Now why do I worry the ECM will show something totally different

What I want to see now is tonight's 0Z GFS operational run consolidating what's happened in today's 12Z, rather than reversing it as seems to have been the case for the last two or three days. I think the same applies to the ECM, if not to the same extent.

GEFS mean at 156 says the slider is a go! 


 



 


Compare to the previous run GEFS mean at the same time here. Massive shift!

Temper your expectations, we've all been here before.


If the ECM is on board then tentative excitement may be warranted. If the ECM disagrees its probably right.

There are some absolute monsters in the perturbations too. This by T192:



 


Looks like setting up for the first London -15C run of the winter

GFS Parallel still being a party pooper though, not sliding the low nearly so cleanly.

Forget FI - in less than a weeks time we could see daytime maxes of 1 or 2c with sleet/snow flurries.
