Weather update W/C 28th Feb

Evening all.

So far last weeks weather turned out as expected, generally.

Here is my forecast for the next 7 days.

Firstly, temperatures are dropping fast throughout the whole of the week. Daytime temperatures will not get above freezing and best temperatures at 3000m asl are going to be in the region of -8 to -10c. The wind will pick up slightly on the odd day and this will give a very cold -20c or more wind chill.

So far last weeks weather turned out as expected, generally.

Here is my forecast for the next 7 days.

Firstly, temperatures are dropping fast throughout the whole of the week. Daytime temperatures will not get above freezing and best temperatures at 3000m asl are going to be in the region of -8 to -10c. The wind will pick up slightly on the odd day and this will give a very cold -20c or more wind chill.

There is a low pressure system heading east through the mediterranean dragging up moisture and this will hit landfall during Tuesday and Wednesday. As this pushes mositure towards the north, it will hit the cold air being dragged down by a low pressure situated over Eastern Turkey which is pulling air down from central Russia. Snowfall will follow !..I dont think there is huge amounts to come, but it will be constant over a few days into next weekend. The pressure systems dont seem to be going too far as they weaken and almost vanish by Thurs/Fri. What follows now a quieter day or so until the weekend.

The weekend is a little far away to be very accurate but as always I will post mid week. Next weekend is going to very cold, increasing wind and increasing cloud but not a lot of snow. Winds will be coming from the North/North west all the way from the arctic.

Summary.

A week of unsettled weather, dropping temperatures and snow showers for quite a bit of the week.

Lets see what happens !!

So far so good :-) Booze

Slight change in the weather towards the weekend. Temperatures are going to rise as a small high pressure shoves the low out of the way for a bit. Next week, VERY cold and early indications of snow.
