None other than Essex Weather themselves for that chart. 

What a disappointing winter it's been here.

If you put into Google "BBC Weather" and play the video from a few hours ago that might cheers you up mate

Well that would be just cruel for me in Southend. Unbelievable

Don't think it will have such a sharp cut off, I guess we'll see tomorrow.

Am not getting the Conveyor coming out of the Calais area towards Kent pushing West North Westwards through Kent, Surrey, London etc

Where are the BBC getting that from, it looks like the Precip approaches from the SW heads NE, Pivots and Peters out ?

Anyone know from the above graphics what models are showing that ?

Interestingly Paul a lot of the high resolution models show something similar to this, so there must be something that is triggering those showers as its not just on one model (though they do vary In exact locations.

I remember being in Chichester at that point. We expected 5-10cms there. Ended up with 24cms. That one massively over performed so it is possible for systems to come in hotter than expected.

I spy with my snow-hunting eye, a teeny tiny patch of 10-20cm over my bit of kent (all for fun...if 5cm happens I’d be shocked)

All I want to know is will I get to South London and back to the Downs at Sevenoaks before the snow hits tomorrow? Last year I got stuck on the Surrey hills, and it took me 3 hrs to do 10 miles. If I get back at 6pm will I beat it, otherwise I won't go ??     

Oh and -4.6 here currently.

Another cold night here, near Fleet (North Hampshire). A lovely -4 temp with -4.7. DP. Gritters have just driven through our village so my excitement for tomorrow is growing. Just keeping everything crossed - but MetO has snow symbols from 5pm through until 3am so I would like to think that's as good as a promise.

Now I am going to get some work done in these late hours so I can give my Thursday over to radar watching. Good luck all! ❄

Spookily as we tick over Midnight tomorrow and into Friday 1st February when the Snow should still be falling it will be 10 Years YES Thats 10 YEARS! To the day since the Red Alert in the South East.

Listen to the Forecast from Ms Powell. Sound familiar ? Areas of the Thames Valley and South of the M4, Who said that never happens

No idea, but from the way you've just described the line of showers, may be it's a channel streamer. I wonder.

Unfortunately for me, this is more likely than the channel version lol.

ICON shows it but it's about the only model that does. ECM did show it on previous runs but I can't see the latest run, it's not loading for some reason

Re-watching that streamer was painful. It was about 2 miles North of me, got a dusting while London got absolutely dumped on. I was absolutely gutted! Late Nov 2010 made up for it though

Well 21z ICON has a more active front and the pulse stays around  longer as well however nothing north of the Thames on this run...and I do mean nothing.  Kent does ok, as does all southern counties of the region. Broadly 3-6cms. But a very sharp cutoff which is pretty much M4-London.

Being just north of London is like a rollercoaster at the moment!

Damn, even here in N Kent is right on the Northern edge there. Fairly similar to the ECM which is a slight worry, though EURO4 has upgraded the potential so in essence, we haven't got a scooby do

Poor us, just getting the scraps!

Not even the scraps on that run, the front literally fades away once at M4 latitude.

The showers coming in afterwards frankly look more promising for London than that front on the 21z.

Still, nothing to say it's going to be accurate, even this close models can be wrong.
