Hi Alex :)

Yes i'm sure you are right- after reading Exeters update i think there will be more chances as we move through Feb- certainly for the SE brigade who have had a terrible few years winter wise ( summer wise i always look on in envy from the soggy North west).

I be up all night until 8am so i will be watching the radar wishing you guys good luck, bye for now ..

Good night, have a good shift.

Just got in from a lovely evening train driving around South Essex with nothing to report except it's getting a little brass monkeys out there....

Good to see reports of snow from a few places....but I think a few people need to remember the difference between widespread frontal snow and streamers....as someone else said earlier, this event will be extremely hit and miss for most people.

Here's hoping for a pleasant surprise come daylight! :)

Walking back from my mates watching the first half of the SB - deffo some wintryness in what's coming down in Cheriton. 

Bit of a icing sugar covering on the cars.

Sounds like our last shower, but it doesn't seem to want to fully transition here. I'M sure the usual places have snow though, like capel and Whitfield.

There’s a growing inland movement of snow showers, for Greater London I see it between 3-5AM some may start coming our way will be doing an all nighter of sorts.

Oh dear, that's a shame.  Keep the ramping and lose the moaning and you'll be fine!

I am up all night. I wasn't suppose to be working tonight. I was looking forward to seeing some snow with a beer in hand. I will be  snow watching in a different mode now.

So am I going to see any Surrey?

Radar is looking better. Those blobs east and south of Southwold look to have their eyes on SE London / NW Kent greater frequency of them apparent in North Sea and intensity ramping up a tad.
