Nice covering forming lol

[alexisj9]

The only annoying thing is the temperatures tomorrow expected to be around 5 - 6 degrees. Will melt any snow.

It will only climb to that if it's sunny, I'm thinking it won't be sunny at all.

[Cheese Rice]

It's snowing in Westminster!!

[Trom]

Looks like the best Southerly location for snow is Berkshire/Wiltshire.  It's that damned M4 - normally it's the dew points but this time the direction.  Some how that road is cursed for snow lovers in the South.

[mpkio2]

Yup this shows that once you get a very cold pool of air in place things usually take care of themselves. (even if not shown to on the models)

Lol yeah. Its one of the reasons while this cold spell was being predicted by models, and for SouthEast being in the bullseyes for a cold snowy period around this time, I was getting excited, despite the models showing some marginal -850's. Uusally, it all works out in the end.

 

Light snow still falling, and itf the predicted radar on www.meteoradar.co.uk is anything to go by, London might recieve a good covering by morning!

[Neilsouth]

Another epic fail for Kent, I'm going to bed

[saint]

It's snowing in Westminster!!

 

You've taken our bloody snow with you!!!! 

[Mammatus]

Can't complain about this.....lol.

 

Was expecting a dusting not prolonged light to moderate snow with some heavy bursts.

 

Really coming down here in Haverhill (SW Suffolk). We're getting the left-overs from Norwich which although less intense than NE of here still producing some big flakes and heavy falls. If this carries on I'll be going know where tomorrow morning.

Happy to report that there are a vfew flakes blowing in the wind here and the moon has finally disappeared!!!
 

Radar/lamp-post watch starts in earnest.

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Snowing settling

[terryall]

Just so that I don't completely collapse of exhaustion whilst waiting in SE London does anyone have any idea what time scale we are looking at for when snow arrives? What time should I put my alarm on for?

[Cheese Rice]

You've taken our bloody snow with you!!!! 

I've seen more snow here than I would of had I been in leeds. Snowed quite heavily for a time Saturday night

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Nice increase in ppn rates north of London

[easton888]

coming down steadily in North London but still tiny flakes, road now has a thin covering, started about midnight

[Jo S]

still the odd flake blowing in the wind,not sure whether to go to bed, or stay up 

[Captain Shortwave]

Nothing here so far. Hoping for better later hopefully.

Friday

Fresh to strong easterly wind

With surface and 500mb heights rising, any shower activity will be increasingly squeezed out. Some scattered showers still around coasts are possible.

Temperatures - 2-4C. Bitter wind chill though.

 

Saturday

Light to moderate north easterly wind

Mainly dry today with some sunshine. cloud will begin to increase from the north later as a weak front moves south.

Temperatures - 3-6C

 

Back to sleep for me I think.

Clouded over here was about to go to bed. But no no no, not yet the weather won't let me.

[Sno' problem]

Nice increase in ppn rates north of London

Well it has been very very light here, slowly building to the North, but unfortunately it is still skirting past me as it trundles SW.

I've seen more snow here than I would of had I been in leeds. Snowed quite heavily for a time Saturday night

 

Stop rubbing it in.... I wish I was down south this week now! (I am this weekend, though...) 

[Jo S]

why, oh why do i put myself through this 

[Mark wheeler]

Extremely light snow here. Getting hyped up

[Daniel*]

Resisting the urge. I planned to have a early night.

[Mesoscale]

Nice covering here but we have only light snow, how does the heaviest snow go north and south of here? work that one out.
