Wonder if those showers to the east have our name on them.

Might be a tad too far South myself

[MidnightSnow]

Swindon looks like a good place to be from the showers approaching.

That is a massive downgrade tomorrow for Dorset east on latest BBC weather!! Looks crap with hardly anything hitting Dorset tomorrow. Guess it's gone west.

Just started snowing here in Thatcham

[dibble34]

I have to go to Bath Hospital tomorrow from Winchester.... Guessing that could be a bad idea!

[Andy Bown]

I now know it is possible for the temperature to FALL under unbroken midday sunshine and of course it is virtually Spring! It's gone from -0.4c down to -1.2c in the last hour!

ESE wind is gusting very strong off Salisbury Plain, the last xx number of times that's happened have been hot summer days.

Cloud really coming over now they also have that peach cast to them and not much definition! Humidity the crazy low at 38 dp -12 Temp -1

Intefresting times.

I have a commute from Bournemouth to Whiteley and back. Tomorrow might be interesting I think....

 

Just avoided an ice day in Bournemouth - topped out at 0.4c before dropping back below zero in last few mins.

Here at work looking at the tops of the clouds in the Channel.

I'll be doing Ringwood to Whitely at 7am tomorrow, will try not to slide into you

[Mark Neal.]

Big flakes settled on everything apart from parts of road.

Should do mate, straight down the M4.

They aren’t doing anything in Reading. Even though radar says it is...

Does anyone know where Mapantz is? You would think he would be chomping at the bit, posting like mad with these prospects...

Not sure, the showers seem to be dissipating as they get here. Had one overhead a minute ago that fizzled out right above us and now it's bright sunshine!

 

But we'll see!

Snow mostly melted here. Despite it being under 0c. The mad thread lied about it not melting!!

I noticed that the Met office has dropped our amber warnings too for tomorrow and Friday, although we are still under the main national amber warning!

[festivalking]

My met office app hasn't had an  update for forecasts round here since 9am, anybody elses updated?

Hi Beka! The moisture is being sucked out of the snow rather than it melting.

Latest BBC weathr 20 mins ago. Looks crap on there for Dorset to east very hit n miss most of tomorrows fun looking at that. With Friday looking better. Big disappointment going by that.

[Dormouse]

Looks like another blast coming off the sea.  Snow blowing across quite fast and thick.

That's the only doubt I have. Need a more ENE flow or growth on the southern edge.

[MidnightSnow]

Just maybe..
