Will do, shortly after 11am 

Hi Karlos is that front ever going to arrive lol.

Took your advice and treated my son and his girlfriend to Sunday lunch at the Bakers arms a table for 4 right by the log fire. It was brilliant and the food was excellent. One thing I did find amusing is when I went into the garden for a ciggie they still had a notice up saying not to remove your top as other diners may find it offensive. My teeth were chattering at the time.

RE Friday, I’m not going to get my hopes up. Nick F’s post in the Mad Thread sums up why quite nicely. 

mmmm I just got off at the station....still there is always that t384 chart to give me hope 

[karlos1983]

I really hope this SSW delivers. It’s beginning to feel impossible to get snow event for the south these days. ☹️ 

[karlos1983]

in a word.... underwhelming 

[jethro]

Sunny here.

Snap, plenty of blue skies, oh well, maybe the precipitation up north will make it down later before the front fizzles out. 

[jessandjon]

Ohhhhhh

[Andy Bown]

I seen approximately 200 snowflakes in an hour lol. Still, my boy pointed excitedly at them so that was cool!

[SNOW CRYSTAL]

Dandruff here on lower Dartmoor. Not a bad enough case to warrant 'Head 'n' Shoulders. 

[matt111]

Sunny start but clouding over now. Not expecting much here if anything at all. One thing though is I’ve had 2 air firsts in a row which has been a rarity this winter. 

[slinky1989]

Playing the radar through for the last hour shows the front starting to break up now.

Doctor Doctor! We have a strong case of MFS - Model Fatigue Syndrome.

The only cure is to step away until Novemeber......

Come now @karlos1983 you can get through this!!

[Mark Parsons]

As forecast, no surprises there then !

Pa ha, ironically about the only forecast they have got right for a long time when it's come to precipitation

Depends which forecast you going on... A few days ago it was to to reach us. 

[jessandjon]

Its snowingish

[Mapantz]

Rapidly decaying now.. there won't be much left of it come later this afternoon.

[Dorsetbred]

Right so away from the gloom and despondency,....

It's a gorgeous late winters' day, dry and plenty of warming sunshine, and a lack of breeze, ideal for taking the kids down to the beach to build sandcastles and play at the waters edge, splashing around and eating the occasional ice-cream.

 

(Who says I can't talk gibberish...)

[Mark Neal.]

Faintest of snowflakes falling here. Lovely picture of the sun out and light snow flurry. 

[karlos1983]

signs though of this area starting to expand, perhaps this is the point where the front gets a bit more umph in the afternoon/evening for more South eastern areas

[Dorsetbred]

OK, so the time has come to stop....

Lets get on with spring shall we...
