This will be the last chart for the time we are looking at 12:00 on the 18th Jan 2007.
As you can see the pressure has decreased to 964mb, as the low deepens. Also the isobars are closers again, so winds expected to gust 80mph in exposed areas.
Looks like I picked the right day to study.

Here is the latest run for 12:00 on the 18th. The low is forecast to have an enlarged center, than previous forecasts, with pressure down to 966mb
Heavier rain at this time is now centered over cumbria, and Scotland.
If you need more detailed analysis, you may wish to look at Discussion: Severe Weather 17 to 18 Jan 2007 - Midlands Weather Forum - A UK Weather Forum Where we are following the whole day, not just the 12:00 hrs forecast period.
Winds are due to remain strong and from the west. Damage is still likely and weather warnings have been issued and you are advised to keep up to date with flood warnings for your area.

Ok i'll help but no going indoors cos it's too cold and leaving me to finish it.
Snowmen look good if you build it then it snows again so that its white around it/him/her.
It never lasts let alone lasts long enough to get a second fall.  Ok i'll help but no going indoors cos it's too cold and leaving me to finish it.

You might just have your wish sooner than you think. For the UK as a whole, Satuday to Tuesdays has strong possibilies.

snow - off topic
Seeing as you lot are obsessed with snow (aren't we all) I found this.
This chart is the closest I have for now. (reports of snow across northern Scotland tonight) This is the midnight forecast for Tues/Wed 17th Jan.
See the blue dotted line across the northern edge of Scotland. This is the 528
DAM line (its a thickness of air measurement) but as I mentioned earlier, its what is associated with snow. Basically, if you have that and you have rain, 9 times out of 10 it will fall as snow or a wintry shower. Seeing as you lot are obsessed with snow (aren't we all) I found this.
