YES DANIEL!!!  

Although If you've just jinxed it and it turns out to be a wet mess I'm sure half of this forum will never forgive you lol! 

Gone and blown it now lol!

Nope go tell the whole square. 

How odd it will not let me post on my tablet, happy with the latest Euro4 nothing's changed in regards to the track of the low, slightly more shallower.   

Marginal huh? I beg to differ the charts speak for themselves. Mild sector being squeezed out, snow bringing wet bulb temps often overlooked but move in faster essential - so an upgrade faster transition to snow one would think. 

06z / 12z

Snow is undoubtedly coming folks and it may be disruptive. I expect this thread to be rather busy this time, tomorrow.

Thomas Schafernakker on BBC London:

"Join me later to find out exactly how much snow we are going to get in the capital" 

Could that METO yellow warning be upgraded to that orangey colour I wonder........

Do you want to join me in stripping the supermarket shelves of bread and milk? I believe that is the tradition in such situations?

Hey Jenny back in '92 I worked at Sizewell and we had a 1cm of snow one morning.

Went to shop later that day and they had sold out of everything!

Lovely area though I really enjoyed living there.

My heavy snow symbols are back!  I know it keeps chopping and changing on the app but it's still nice to see! It feels like Christmas Eve I don't know if I'll be able to get to sleep lol! 

[shotski]

How's it all looking for tomorrow ? Just got in and had a look at the Arpege and it seemed to show a southward shift and arriving later with south of london getting lucky.

Yep.. are you still sitting at 25 out of 100?

[snowrye]

OMG IS IT ACTUALLY GOING TO SNOW,1st time in 4 years,Im going to pee myself

[HammerJack]

Hi all - glad to be back in the mad house awaiting the snow (hopefully). The only reason it would go to amber is if it does hit during rush hour, and this would cause a higher risk to the public / commuters. If it was a few hours later, I'm sure it stay as yellow. Let the fun begin :-)

I'm going for a 40% chance too. Still don't think it'll settle much or for long. Happy to be wrong of course.
