The whole resort is closed today due to the weather!

I was going to post that myself. And the heavy snow hasn't arrived yet.

The snow they've been having for the past 24 hours is restricted to the mountains. It's interested to watch the radar loop as you can see it's classic Orographic precipitation, where unstable, moisture laden air is forced up by a mountain range (in this case the Pyrenees) and a stationary and localised area of rain (in this case snow) is created.

The heavier stuff will coincide with the more organised rain to the north reaching the area. They're expecting 40cm of new snow tonight alone!

Chance of the white stuff Tuesday night or Wednesday morning?

Better not postpone Lincoln v Ipswich and mess up our 4th round game as a result.

Amazing. We were skiing in France a few years ago when there was a massive snowstorm overnight. The cars parked outside the apartment were just slightly higher bumps than the rest of the road.

And 48 hours after it started, it's still snowing in Andorra (for [MENTION=3711]Driver8[/MENTION] )

Over here (St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada) we have forecasts ranging from 10-60cm of snow starting tomorrow (Friday) afternoon until well in to Saturday. Any chance you'd wanna take a stab at snowfall levels, too?

I fully understand if you're busy. But if you don't ask, you don't get...! Cheers!

A news alert has just popped up on my phone saying at least 6 people have been found alive in the hotel.

the data is based on a location sort of near where you are (which looks a very interesting place, jutting out into the Atlantic as it does).

It looks like today will see some snow, but not anywhere near 60cm where you are. (the 6Z run confirms this, but it's not finished generating the charts yet).

The back end of next week looks like you might get something, but it'll be warmer (above freezing) so that may be a rain / snow mix... probably trending towards snow as the temps drop again,

After that it looks colder and some snow chances.

Thanks buddy!

And yes - a very interesting place! We get all kinds of weather! This is on top of 30cm on Monday. Shovelling is a great workout!

I've just had an update that unconfirmed reports have increased that to eight

This is St John's, Newfoundland (Eastern Canada) right now. Taken from my kitchen window. I'm 6ft 1 and that snow drift is at least equally as tall as I am.

Excuse the whiny dog in the background.

Nice.

Looks like a major stratospheric warming event likely for 27-28 January. Fingers crossed we get the fallout over the UK.

So much for my interpretation of the GFS Data!

Enjoy! (?)

Still only expecting a final snowfall figure of 25-30cm - but gusts of up to 100kmh are leaving some pretty serious drifts.

I'm not looking forward to shovelling, but am looking forward to donning my snowshoes and taking the dog out for a walk.

jevs · Jan 31, 2017

Looks like it could be turning cold again next week with the possibility of snow.

Plake · Jan 31, 2017

We've seen a big polar stratospheric warming event yesterday. Might be good news.
