Drizzly rain now in Farnham, a bit of nasty slushy snow on the ground!  Big mistake getting excited this morning! ?

[Hotspur62]

mixture of rain and snow on and off here in locksbottom but not settling.as was last case if you have elevation then you may get a covering in higher spots on noth downs like biggin hill,knockholt etc.Waiting for an easterly/North Easterly later in January as Northerlies and North Westerlies just dont work for this part of the world!!

[SenlacJack]

Rain now turned to snow here in St Leonards-on-Sea ( East Sussex ). Highly unlikely to settle on the wet ground I would think.

[LightningLover]

Sleet has turned to snow, with some nice fat flakes mixed in. Unlikely to settle though.

[snowrye]

Got snow in northiam

[Ice Day]

Just started snowing here, not sticking yet but it's having a good go.

[Dbarb]

Almost blizzard like conditions here as the wind is so strong out in the open.

[Eskimo]

4-5CM here now, certainly wasn't expecting this much! 

[Ice Day]

Getting much heavier. Sticking to grass, cars and bins. Nothing on the ground yet but hopeful.

[huntso]

Still chucking it down, looks the A14 is a real mess with jackknifed lorries between the M1/M6 and A1 (Northants and Cambs sections)

Surprised its covering so well after a night of rain, but it is

[Number 23]

Blustery heavy snow here now. Looks like one of those where we'll get a bit of transient settling on grass and sheds before a swift melt.

Must say though, these are the largest snowflakes I've seen in a very long time.

Exactly right. They're massive!

I'm sure if you caught one you'd have a reasonable ready-made snowball!

[Sparky68]

Just starting to ease up here, been snowing pretty much for the last 5 hours

[snowking]

The intensity has eased off now but still coming down

Somewhere between 2-3 inches has fallen here - once again it looks like on the whole, the ECMWF has called this one the best over the last 72 hours, with a consistent theme on the most part to bring in some slightly more noticeable totals through the home counties

[moogyboobles]

It's just turned to snow here in South Woodham. Obviously I really can't see it settling but nice to see quite a few flakes Christmas week!

[CanadaAl]

Here in NW essex, 5CM at least and still throwing it down. Looks like we got the sweet spot according to Wundermap. No rain to start, just snow since 7:55. Definitely can't see why there's doom and gloom on the MOD thread. Two pretty decent shots of snow (10th and today) and December isn't even over. 

[john mac]

Snowing heavily here in Suffolk now

[SMU]

Another slider incoming at T72 on the ECM !!!!

[snowrye]

After 30 mins of snow,im back to rain,better luck next time

They're certainly delivering for our region this year.
