[Snowangel-MK]

[Alpine glow]

To the left ??

[Kent Blizzard]

Snowing in Luton

That picture makes me jealous  ...enjoy.

[alexisj9]

Want to take a pic of the moon dog, but can't fit the whole halo in the picture:(

 

Thank you for posting the brighton rocks one, looks just like that here, with Jupiter inside the halo, Just beautiful.

[Daniel*]

Funny several hours ago I mentioned MK & Luton and both have done well.

Lol

Just been talking to someone in the know and they've just told me that the snow shield is expected to remain online 

 

[Southender]

Well fair play to the Euro4 called it fairly well tonight. The NMM however is wrong by about 150 miles + massive FAIL.

Those in the W/NW of the region enjoy.

[Paul Sherman]

Stunning Moon and Halo here in SE Essex as well, my 18-55mm Lens just cannot capture it, cant find my 10-28mm wide angle - Aaaaarggh!

 

Am guessing some stunning pictures will be coming in of this tonight!

nah it's sliding on west even from here now lol

[Frostbite80]

Arnt these showers meant to keep going until lunch tomorrow? Surely those that have no snow yet to the east may get some by then?

[Roy]

The main band is weakening now anyway. Nothing much coming off the North Sea now either. Maybe a wintry mix to look forward to tomorrow lol

[suffolkboy_]

Ice grains been blowing around in the wind here for the past hour. Temp -0.8C

 

Looks like some showers are starting to pep up now in east Norfolk, so some of Suffolk may be lucky later tonight. I have work early tomorrow, so I'm not staying up.

Do the BBC look at these ppn predictions as well? If so, they must have gone for the NMM, who as you say were well wide of the mark. Euro4 very accurate.

[Mark wheeler]

Well the moon looks lovely tonight and the stars and some lovely fleeting clouds. Aaaareggghhhhhh. Toys out pram Wahh Wahh . I want snow. :-)

So near yet so far

[mackerel sky]

4 hours continuos snow here, 5cm.

[TEITS]

Latest Euro 4 suggests more snow tomorrow for the areas already seeing snow i.e Wash.

Could turn rather sleety in the afternoon.

[mrkipling]

wow, it's pretty painful to watch that precip slipping southwestwards, especially as the temps are the right side of marginal now - from an IMBY perspective, is there any other precip expected to make it to the soutcoast tonight?
I see the Metoffice still have a warning for snow for our area between 6am - 10am tomorrow, or is this just wishful thinking?

 

Glad to see some people have manage to get a decent covering tonight anyway...

I'll just post this pic here of the halo moon, and it's little mate Jupiter, as a consolation  !

 

[Mesoscale]

Snowing in Hemel Hempstead for 25 minutes. Covering quite nicely with temp -1 deg C. Gone from light to moderate. Will produce a decent cover if it continues at this rate for an hour or more.

I am 5 miles south of you and we have nothing at all.

[Roy]

It's the 700hPa wind vectors you want to view when tracking PPN, surface wind direction doesn't give an accurate enough picture. 700hPa shows why the band is moving SW

Yes, makes sense when you look at these...maybe we should all have thought of looking at these wind vectors (including the forecasters) instead of just going by the wind direction...

[Neilsouth]

I'll say it again, this winter has been ***** for the South East!
