What this run does highlight is that we could get well into December- and even to New Year without much of lowland Britain not seeing anything remotely wintery. Let’s hope January delivers.
I think you just massively (and inadvertently) ramped the remaining 19 days of December as delivering snowfall to lowland Britain
Interesting models tonight it you're squinting at them with your optimistic glasses on - lack of Eastwards progression of LP systems, as has been shown for a few days now, reluctance of HP to the East to give in and some signs of ridging towards Iceland/Greenland. Not coming to much at present, although there's still the possibility of some transient snowfall for some this weekend but potential down the line.
Of course if you're in pessimism mode you'll point to the fact all the above means for the UK for most of the model runs is varying degrees of milder and cooler unsettled stuff, with no strong signal for anything properly cold as far as the eye can see.
I'll plant myself (as usual ) in the former camp and wait and see if HP can get a foothold anywhere interesting and last long enough to drag some cold air in for the last week or so of the month.
