Still nothing in Rochester. Still waiting for a winter here.
-
Yep, nothing here, again.Medway shield holding strong!
-
I can report that the Medway snow shield is holding firm again so far.
-
Good luck, GP! I've only been on Netweather since the end of last year but in that time you have proven to be a fantastic forecaster with an astounding knowledge of global weather patterns and their impact on weather in the UK. You will be sorely missed by many on here.
-
That's it!
Worst event in a long time.
There have been a lot like that this winter/spring here. In fact, all of them have been like this.
-
Has to be the most exciting Winter yet.
2010 was far more exciting because I actually saw snow.
-
South and South-West?
I have probably seen the least amount of snow from the Entire UK?
Belfast has even had more than me!
That's why I'm craving it so much I just can't get a Decent cover of snow.
Trust me, I have seen even less than you! For many parts of the south this spell has been more about the amazing weather patterns than the actual conditions at the surface as many of us have seen very little snow. I am desperate for a big snowfall here that lasts on the ground a few days, then the weather can warm up for all I like.

Given up on this one for Medway. Another let down. Looks like there's plenty building off the Thames to affect northern areas of the region though.
-
Absolutely nothing here in Rochester, yet again. I'm still wonder whether the 2 year Autumn we've had will ever end and whether winter will ever begin here!
-
For the past 2 days I've been forecasting on my facebook weather page for the rain to turn to snow across our region and the Met Office have only just picked up on it
-
Light snow, nothing settling. Looking at the radar, the heavy stuff is all to the east and west of me whilst all the very light stuff is being drawn toward me like a magnet. That makes a change.....

Oh hello. This feature across the South East wasn't there before - http://images.meteociel.fr/im/1975/96-779_awr8.GIF

12z ECM as you were really with the placement of the snowfall for Friday:
It should be noted that the reason there is no snowfall east of this area is due to lack of precipitation rather than lack of cold air - this is the furthest north the 30F dew point isotherm travels:
As a result, the snow line for Friday Night/Saturday as the second front moves in is further South than previously:
SK
That 2nd chart has snow accumulation for my area. Bank! In reality though, I can't see it stretching that far south.

Friday is looking wintry for Northern Ireland and Scotland - http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/cgi-bin/expertcharts?LANG=en&MENU=0000000000&CONT=ukuk&MODELL=nae&MODELLTYP=1&BASE=-&VAR=prty&HH=48&ARCHIV=0&PANEL=0&ZOOM=1&PERIOD=

Actually looking at the radar a CLASSIC kent streamer is still raging-
This is alligned across the Estuary- diving in through Areas like Inn on the lake & Driving all points SW- With the convection as it is & slow propergation of the change in wind to a North - this is set for a few hours!!!
It should move east towards the Medway towns!!
We already have heavy snow here now and several inches laying from yesterday and overnight. Death to the Medway snow shield! The rotten winter has been made up for. Thank you, Spring!
-
Lots of snow in Rochester. It took all winter and the first part of Spring but, the Medway snow shield is finally defeated!
-
Looks like Medway and other parts of North Kent are in a drier slot for now. Expecting the heavy showers to return to here later though.
-
Another blizzard in Rochester.

-
Heaviest snow I have ever seen in my life today with blizzards and complete whiteouts at times. Makes up for the appalling winter here.
-
Just had a big downpour of snow here in Medway
-
Snowing in Rochester. Tiny little flakes.
-
I'm liking this forecast for Rochester - http://tinypic.com/r/211qcf6/6

Here's the potential I'm looking at for next week:Warming up for many central, southern and eastern areas early next week. Cooler and at times more unsettled for northern and western areas.
Potential warm plume for eastern/south eastern areas later in the week with low pressure bringing cooler and more unsettled conditions elsewhere. Potential for some thundery downpours as low pressure across western areas comes up against the warm and humid air over eastern/south eastern areas, and/or thundery showers moving up from France to affect some areas.
Likely cooler and more unsettled for the UK as a whole thereafter.
Potential for low pressure to drag down enough cold air late in the week for early season rural frosts in northern areas and perhaps to turn some showers wintry over the top of the Scottish mountains.
I've mentioned the above potential on my Facebook page so, fingers crossed!
