We're on our way there now as Farthing Downs has failed to deliver. Bit more than 15mins for us, but it would be nice to see some deeper snow.

Ah I hope you have fun! There were a lot more people there as we were leaving so potentially less snow due to people sledging/walking on it but I'm sure there'll still be enough!! If you have kids go to the Fort behind the cafe as better for sledging down, less steep!x

That blob has developed more into a band all of Kent inc London area in the zone now. 

I said it looked like a developing trough and someone though I was being funny, just wondering if it will keep going west or stall somewhere.

Ps Now showing in Dover.

yes, and BBC graphics with Helen just now totally dry. Meteogroup and their awful graphics must be changed or at least forced to improve

Been wrong since the front finished yesterday, still waiting for my 4 hours of heavy snow that kept moving around, they where for the early hours of this morning last night.

There are some more "blobs" incoming behind from Belgium/Germany on the same trajectory, but they appear to be breaking up over Belgium.

That's frustrating to hear. Decent dew points, around the region, at the moment.
