Well, I wasn't expecting this overnight... (Just taken from the met office app)

Right, to bed early and up for 4am lamp post watch ;-)

There's a reasonable chance I might wake up to see Reigate Hill with a dusting I guess! My kids will have me up early anyway!

My 3 year old would love to see some snow, last time he saw it was in late winter or early spring 2013, when he was a little too young to appreciate it. So long ago!

Knowing my luck it will rain :p

My 3 year old as well - Jan 2013 was the last decent snow here ( we didn't get much that March! My 3 year old doesn't remember this, but my 5 year old can!

Every time you look at the radar you get a little excited then any ppn just dies out or heads slightly NE,cant see any snow tonight,maybe better luck next week.

Yup main clumps heading NE, GFS 18z has got this spot on. The stuff heading towards London though is dying.

Oh right, they look like a nice healthy crop. Are you sure Daniel?

Eeeeekk trying not to get excited but me and the kids (8 and 7) are severely snow deprived and have been hoping for a chance since November after last years disappointment, lol!

Even if not tonight then at least the models have perked up a bit looking forward!

Good luck everyone!x

Light to moderate westerly winds

Another day of sunshine and showers, these could turn a little wintry in places.

Temperatures - 4-6C

Sunday (day 5)

post-17424-0-01576900-1421187571_thumb.p

Moderate north to north easterly wind

A long way off but that occluded front near us could bring some wintry precipitation.

Temperatures - 3-5C

Not point making too much of this just yet :p

Wow....totally can't  call this.  All I know is the gritters have been out, it smells like snow and temps are, or at least were, bouncing around.  So nice, at least to have a bit of excitement, although, sad we have lost a lot of our snow geeks  :unknw:
