I’m quite surprised, they have been forecasting no snow here and other places today, looking st the radar it’s full, everywhere seems to be in with s little chance even today maybe

Yes definitely clear and not even a heavy frost just up the road at Charlwood. Red sunrise though. I think it's going to be around lunchtime that we see some showers here.

No frost shows how dry the continental air is, as it’s well below freezing.

Coming down harder in Farnham but it's still that annoying floaty fairy type snow!

Do you mind explaining that a bit more please Surrey? Always keen to understand more!! Thanks x

Once the sun comes up it begins to warm very slightly the air particals. These then mix up better and helps aid in lift which then allows higher cloud tops. That's probs another reason many are not seeing snow due to shallow cloud currently, give it time this is looking great for many so far

That's how it's started here.. The intensity is up and down but this is pure proper snow falling here.. I'll try and get a few pics done soon.

Latest Gatwick TAF. Hardly harum-scarum but suggestive of increasing activity as @Surrey alludes to.

Edit: determined to re-post last night’s, so just the one where I’m running out of battery!

Heavy snow shower in coulsdon while waiting for the train but the 1/4 mike up the track there is nothing. Then some at Purley a further mile on. Shows the nature of showers.
