I left Poole, Dorset at 4:15am this morning driving to Canary Wharf, moderate snow at 5:30am M3 Basingstoke area, back to rain by the time I hit the M25 at 6am.

Long time lurker, rare poster (you guys and girls are the experts), as we tip toe into what appears to be a front loaded winter, i’m reminded of 2010, as I remember we always seemed to be on the cold side of the Jet, with what appeared to be wedge after wedge between Iceland and Greenland, could this be a similar setup?

I’ve watched this band move north from Biscay all afternoon, very slow moving, will it decay as it hits higher pressure, it’s now over the Cherbourg peninsula.

For next week, I'd rather have the weather we have right now, sunny and 11°C rather than cold and overcast. Milder from Thursday with yet more rain!
Must be the Purbeck microclimate, I think we have topped out at 8oC here in Sunny Poole. UKV into range now and showing for Sunday at least we MIGHT be in the game...

Living on the Coast drives me bonkers when you see things like this! North Dorset looks good as normal though. Wednesdays outlook.
Yet with today’s occluded front it is snowing heavily in Ringwood, and Raining in Shaftesbury which is at 709ft ASL...I don’t get it

This is what kills me about living in the Poole, Dorset snow shield, literally 9 miles up the road in Ringwood, they have whiteout conditions...jeez they even have snow showers in Bournemouth

Moderate snow now falling in Brookwood, NW Surrey

Not very scientific, but here’s the bin lid. For what it’s worth the snow was better for snowman ⛄️ building with the ‘Mini Beast’

Very light sleet here in NW Surrey, brisk NE veering E wind blowing, can I expect snow later? Met Office suggesting 24 hours of the stuff!

I have a house in Surrey in the week (plenty of snow there). Couldn’t help but come to my weekend house at 10am this morning, no way was this snow starved Poole born and bred lad going to miss the great SW Blizzard on 2018, it’ll go down in folklore!

Yeah I just went out in the ice stuff. When I came back in I was covered in a thin casing of ice!
The road is now chaos, people abandoning cars outside Poole General Hospital!

What exactly does that mean, or is it specific to your company ? E.g. Are you an AA man ?
It’s a fair question, we invest for corporate investors and pension funds, cold weather impacts the financial markets, so we pay for the best advanced data. Our meteorological analyst looked at the data and advised 1. Buy energy stocks now 2. Placed company business travellers on red alert (me being one), and invoked the disaster recovery plan, which is non essential travel (ie don’t both coming to the office and forget flights), this is in place all of next week. Personally I think we will make an absolute killing on the energy stocks ?

Good afternoon SE snow hunters! My company pay for access to Met Office data (stocks and shares and all that jazz). We have all been placed on RED disaster recovery status alert, avoiding all none essential travel. The Beast is coming...

It probably means nothing, but the travel partner my work use issue weather warnings and possible airport disruption for staff flying anywhere. I received a warning for snow and airport delays for Stansted, Heathrow and Gatwick from 10pm tonight, through to midday tomorrow. I’m due out of Heathrow on a 6am flight tomorrow, so we shall see...

Think some accumulated snow in the Surrey hills can't be ruled out
It’s already snowing in the Surrey Hills, Newlands Corner is a white out at the moment

Snow currently falling in Poole and Bournemouth, right on the coast, gives me hope for overnight.
