The Farming Forecast has a HP cell to the NW for the week maintaining an Easterly so getting progressively colder with showers turning wintry in the North and East , no real specifics , so a safe forecast from Gerry , the charts show some potential for the end of the coming week though.

An interesting farming forecast there from Gerry Murphy , he has a cold low sitting on top of the country for most of next week so snow for the mountains and wintry showers for the rest of us esp around mid week , a frosty week .
Charts looked very interesting from wed onwards , could be a few surprises yet .

an interesting chap is Gerry ...

A risk of snow again this week from Ev there on the farming forecast. Although the UK is a certainty for snow on the northern edge of the front on Tuesday, the front may skirt the south and east coast with snow inland (winds will be maritime due east so coasts will have a low risk)
 
However this is only a risk and it may of course miss us completly. So we keep you upto date here on the IWN.

Air temp avg 1C
Soil temps of 3C so no grass growth this week.
