You must have been dead unlucky with the 2018 BFTE?
Not expecting a great deal here, 10 miles in from the south coast. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Heathfield get a temporary covering though. Only 8 miles from me but it’s amazing the difference a bit of altitude and being a bit further inland makes.
I’m 800m from the sea at 20m asl, I remember driving back from ashford and the snow basically stopped at Rye, nothing in Hastings or Bexhill, was hopefully my rural setting would have helped but alas wasn’t to be.

Good luck to all those hoping for a few hours snowfall in the morning. I’m tempted to get up early to see just one flake!
We have missed everything so far here by the sea so far! Looks like tomorrow will be a wash out too pulling in a nice warm southerly.Still nice of my app to remind me there is a snow warning...nearby
happy lamp post watching!

Lots of hail, thunder and lightning here in Rye.
We had that come over By Pevensey, no thunder or lightening but enough wind for me to remark it was out of no where and record an 49mph gust. I also thought “tornado”?
-
Well here in Hooe (2km from pevensey bay) we are the first house on the hill and it’s not more than a blowy day so far. Sustained wind speed of 20mph and a few 30-40mph gusts. Had to retrieve the chimnea cover.
looking at metoffice forecast things have been tempered back a bit - max wind speed here for lunch time with sustained 37 and gusts of upto 65. Hopefully the trees hold up. -
Good morning from the corridor of mediocrity. Nothing to speak of in Hooe. Some wet patches of slush. Snowed up until 1am but too sleety to accumulate.
Then rained...bah.
If you have accumulations enjoy it, certainly north of the region got some surprises.
Roll on spring now....appears we are unable to get snow here. That’s 2years now in a number of set ups and still no accumulations!

My rage is forcing this system further north!
Pressure has risen a little recently, so either its filling in, or it is still moving north. Based con radar returns and the way precip is filling on the back side of the low, I think its still making some northwards progress.
I feel your pain. We had the hardest over the top and nothing stuck after 3 hrs, just to high dew points. Few miles north and inland. Winter utopia! At least we have seen blizzard conditions and my window sills are covered with ice like a freezing rain storm from the wind and thaw.
0.6deg here and dew point 0. Have a blast tonight, one small saving grace may be the trains wont run tomorrow. Hopefully......

Sleet in Hooe, enjoy everyone!!!!
Not jealous much, by a house by the sea they said.......have nice views they said..........
-
Nothing here in Hooe. No real precipitation. Dandruff and 1degc with dew point at -1.
looks like too much wind and the precipitation is just breaking up. Can’t see any real accumulations from this sadly.

Guys.. relax.
This isn't a marginal situation. Away from perhaps the extreme S coast anything falling from the sky will be 100% snow
I cant relax, here in Hooe we are extreme south coast! Best chance for ages (got nothing from the beast) either too Far East/west/south/north....delete as appropriate. I suspect I will wake up having had it all washed away and wonder what the fuss with the trains to London is about!
So hope not......if Cornwall get snowed in and we don’t...so help me I’m moving.......

As your probably all aware I’m right on the coast I’ve heard that it’s dropped south tomorrow is that better for me???
It does look like that, so hopefully us coasters will have a better chance than last night. Fingers crossed.
In other news travelling on the train, snow line starts around just north of Battle. 2-3cm or so at Stonegate (on cars, not roads or pavements). Imagine Heathfield / Crowbrough and other favoured spots did ok with elevation and away from the sea!
Bah why did I insist on sea views.

Last report from me.
Temp 0.8 degrees dew point 0 degrees.
snizzle. Settled on car roof where not too wet. No covering. On to Thursday so I can experience poor dew points again! Glad others got a decent covering of sorts. And at least my 3 year old got to see falling snow for the first time!
