[Snowman31]

Not looking good at all. Going to sleep and will hope for something better later in the month. Chasing Snow has become depressing over the last few years.

[Dbarb]

Looking more like a streamer than an organized blob with no end in sight.

[Daniel*]

It’s snowing nothing on radar.

Lampost watch has detected a few flakes falling in a light breeze.

That lovely 'blob' to the NW/W of London that missed me! Glad Uxbridge got some, means my nieces may wake up to some.

I would take it. Like I would take a league 2 friendly in late July. Rubbish football better than no football. Gatwick is a shocker of a location for snow. Put some in the post for me.

If it snows I doubt they'll be able to deliver it to you.

if the snow was any lighter, it would be invisible

May I enquire as to which bit of Paris please? Lucky buggers

Nogent sur Marne, in the eastern suburbs. It doesn’t snow much there, even less than London, so this’ll cause a bit of chaos no doubt.

Snow band north of London over northern home counties seems be pepping up a bit, perhaps because of Chilterns / Dunstable Downs uplift ... wishful thinking, but could be last snow chance for a while.

Some pretty impressive snowfalls in Paris and still falling, they are only just recovering from the River Seine flooding the city. Certainly the weather impacting them this winter, then they have all the big storms in the summer we don't get.

So you don't think there will be any snow on the back end of the front on Friday?

 

There is snow grains/ snizzle here at the moment.

Believe it not it was their biggest snowfall in 30 years. Paris does not get a lot of snow! 

Really? When my brother lived there a few years ago they had a decent fall. How much has fallen there this time? More than in London lol...

[Gowon]

Can confirm very light snow in Croydon. 

[Lampostwatcher]

heavy blob alert watford

15-20cm although some parts of Paris saw more than others think suburbs did better. 

[Norfolk_N_chance]

Decent covering so far

[alexisj9]

Doesn't look like much will get here, disappearing before it reaches south Essex, looks to be moving ssw again.

Wow, doesn’t look like anywhere near 20cm in the photo but that’s a very good fall of snow for there!
