OMG meltdown my daughter has finally seen snow...

I think I heard a similar thing come from next door about 20 minutes ago 

[VillagePlank]

About an hour to go and then the country will be under a northerly

Back edge only just clearing Birmingham and a few peppering is showers behind that.

And you, a non-believer - do you repent? Are you a snow-believer now...?!

Que?

I never said it wouldn't snow?

I always said it would (backedge) but little to no accumulation

Timings, location, and precipitation type seem to be very good from Euro4. Is this the defacto snow forecasting model?

 

tis certainly the one i use - seems to have been pretty accurate @ t-24..  of course not everyone will agree

Still there's plenty of room for sur(snow)prises for everyone

[VillagePlank]

Snowing in Rochester.

really?

Look at the main area of precipitation near st albans hasnt moved since 3-pm, the chart your showing is cloud cover, it will slow and rotate before leaving SE.

Snowing here in Ash.  Grass and cars covered, not sure about roads as I haven't ventured out yet.

A pic just for you . Pic doesn't do it justice though . Cars crawling along

[throwoff]

Snowing in Gillingham. Big fat lumps. Not a chance of a settle though

[smith25]

moderate to heavy snow in witham essex and starting to settle on cars etc

[LetItSnow!]

Just looked out the window and was surprised to see that the rain has already turned to snow and is settling very quickly! 

[mulzy]

It just shows how bad things are when we celebrate sleet/wet snow!  Beggars can't be choosers I guess.

Sleet / 1.3C

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Can't get over the rate of how quick it is settling even hard surfaces now.. 

Amazing event so far!!  People driving stay safe!!

Seems pretty accurate with the track so far. My opinion is still that the areas South and East of London will do best.

snowing heavy here.. everything starting to get covered, think thats the quickest heavy rain to snow event ive seen, and to settle so quickly

[SMU]

Already a covering in eltham ( not my car )
