Take a very close look at the Thames on the Netweather Radar. Incredible ❄❄❄❄

ppn is really starting to kick in now. Many will wake up later on and go WOW ❄❄❄❄

Snowing again in Croydon ❄❄❄

Both 500 & 850 hPa's at low temps -28C +/- will create instability allowing the ppn to perk up a lot more
-
Hi, S/SE UK
-
The upper 850hPa temps are around -28C -/+ and coupled with the upper 500hPa around the same temp will create instability = heavier snow 500hPa is more favourable from 3pm for the areas S-SE The following excerpts are courtesy of JP - John Pike

In and around 3pm

I would suggest using the very good Netweather's radar. It will give you amazing ppn resolution and will also show you the previous, current and in coming ppn within a specified time frame
-
Thanks for your kind comments I am basing the following from GFS because they were spot on with the rain ppn on Saturday night into Sunday. It also pinpointed 7am for the sleet/snow to start kicking in. More snow for Kent from the Streamer setup and a ppn source from the southern flank too which is interesting. As always, subject to change Also, @kold weather is the Thames Streamer forecaster king.

@kold weather Is the 'Streamer' forecaster king. You got the streamer forecasts spot on
-
Which radar are you using? I use various radars and one of the good ones is Netweather's radar. Their resolution is very good too especially pinpointing areas with snowfall and incoming snow
-
There was a post he mentioned the possibilities of streamers with a ENE wind flow
-
The MetO's mobile app is all over the place most times, but the BBC app was spot on for today's streamers which is a surprise
-
A few days ago, you mentioned the strong possibility of streamers setting up if the winds turned to a ENE flow. Well done for a brilliant observation
