The Official Winter Snow Thread 2014/2015
Discussion
Charts are very much stepping away from any big snow/cold event sadly - sorry folks.
Having said that, I think surprise snow might become a feature between Xmas and NY - nothing big or heavy though.
As for the storm, still looks likely to happen - low pressure coming down from north of Scotland and likely to cross in a SErly direction towards the continent. Lots of different strengths, sizes, directions of travel so it's not certain what will happen.
I'm pretty certain everyone will remain unsure of what will happen afterwards until we know how the low pressure will act. Sadly Greenland Highs are now off the table, a long period of cold is unlikely.
However Joe b
di seems to think European Cold will extent over NY and for the first few days of 2015...

I flew back from Rome on the night of the 16th and we had really severe turbulence until they finally dropped the flight path 2000ft - the headwind was 150mph so I guess we were playing with the jet stream? It was really lively for most of Southern France!
Certainly sounds like it - the JetStream has (fortunately) not been normal recently and has certainly been to the South. Snow porn! Sadly must stress that the storm on 27th/28th is still far from being correctly predicted. MetOffice are really struggling, along with everyone else.
So far we know Xmas Day will be cold, with potential snow showers in Scotland, NW coast, East Coast (come on London, 10 pound bet at 6/1). After Boxing Day all bets are off.

Beko, this might help answer.

Well spotted Alex...
The track of the low pressure on 27th/28th is still not certain. The models are downgrading it slightly, so it's not as bad - it may not bomb. This also means it's less likely to bring snow
However, the trend is building for (drumroll): High pressure over Scandinavia and that means...
I'm so disheartened by the climb down on the post Xmas weather that I'm not building up my hopes this time!
