This place is confusing. Steve Murr saying it’s  the beginning of the end while others saying the heaviest stuff is still to come? I think I’ll reserve judgement because most predictions have been wrong.

To be fair, if Kent doesn’t fair well, would it be a disaster? Many in Kent were snowed in last time, but my friends just down the road from here only had a dusting. I guess it’s their turn for something!

Yawn!

Another major let down in this part of Surrey. Just like two weeks ago, all the action is too far East and this time north.

Come on summer, do us a favour and get your bottom in gear and hurry up!

Unfortunately many of us poor Sussex folk next door fared relatively poorly last time and looks like we could miss out again.

Still, there’s always next time and fingers crossed for others in the region.

Been pretty steady here in SWF for a while now. Everything is white and nobody has driven past my house since it started settling (unusual, it's quite a busy street) so it looks lovely.
I've got 2 inches on my garden table. Obviously there is less on the roads as it's only been settling there for a couple of hours.

Just come back from the town square, surprised how much has accumulated so far. Looking like another 6-9 hours of light to moderate snow :)

Agreed it isn’t going to plan so who knows it should be dragged more south so areas outside firing area in should theory come back into it.

Exactly! Looks like the luck has turned for those a bit further north! ???

This looks more like a traditional ESE Streamer, which runs true with SWF and Chelmsford having 5-8cm whereas Leigh ON Sea has barely a dusting on the roads and still the 3cm from this morning on the grass.

Pi$$ Poor

As I said a while back, it’s all north. You disagreed though

Heavy Snow continues up here in West Suffolk and looks like it will be a good few hours before it slows up. Probably 5 or 6 cms so far. It all evens out in the end I suppose as we got next to nothing the other Week. Certainly not gloating as I was hoping we all would all get a look in. Would quite happily share what I have to those less fortunate.
