Looking at the Dutch radar I have a horrible feeling we are going to miss several hours of snow from 11 onwards, complete empty patch heading for Kent. All going north.

Got a few more hitting Southend that so hopefully hit the Medway region. Just had a heavy shower which has finally given a covering. 

Wainscott, Medway.

Our snow isn't coming from there. Our snow is generating about 50-100 miles out in the Estuary

And still the moaning goes on in the other thread.

Jeeeeeez

Spotted this by accident - not accurate (read the mod thread properly right now and it is far from moaning) but also a poor statement from a forum host. Perhaps you might take a brief look at prospects for some in the far south and south west before taking a pot shot at those who are not in the firing line for the next 2 days and may potentially miss out altogether.

Thanks for the education, ignore me folks!

Even BBC now have us for heavy snow for next 4 hours now. Just want to look out of window and see it building!!

Look at what the Estuary is doing though. Intensifying everything.

I think Paul means the East Anglia thread @Catacol. Though there isn't a huge amount to be happy with in that thread at the moment anyway.
