Ah, you are just under five miles away (and over 100 metres up) from me - I hope you do well out of this!

Nothing much yet 

[southbank]

V light snow Sutton London 

[LightningLover]

Larger flakes now!

[WhiteFox]

Temp steady at 0.9 dp -2. Dry. Cloudbase has lowered in past half hour. Much more of a reflective orange than earlier!

Now that comes from a man who is not only a weather buff but also realistic when it comes to Britain's winters and he lives in France!...I will firmly take that as positive coming from Nick!...I'll hold you to account if it's all grass and tarmac tomorrow though  I doth my cap in your general direction.

Thanks .  So you’re in Burnham at the moment . Or Norfolk ?

Is that the Burnham in Somerset, haven’t you had snow already . If you’re in Norfolk it’s a bit of a tall order with the set up overnight to get a lot there .

Unless i have a broken radar, this has gone completely Pete Tong unless you live in Kent, No northward extent and main band nearly in the North Sea!

 

Whats the latest radar image you have?

[Coopsy]

Under the pink on the radar but nothing here yet (blue bell hill area) 

[HighPressure]

Sevenoaks  - Light Snow adding to thin covering already here.

no lol fake echo think nothing falling here

ok  looks  like the first bands  are near our area main  stuff near  near  dartford!!

[dubmuffin]

Still snowing lightly here, and the great thing about having the dry cold in first, is that not a single flake is wasted. Everything that comes down is still out there somewhere

In terms of what you see with a deep cold easterly in terms of convection . There’s not that level of cold and the cloud cover associated with the front will subdue that , but the estuary could provide some extra energy to the occlusion itself .

Certainly signs of that already with precip now heading inland towards colchester ahead of the main front 

[FlightlessWings]

Snow in Dorking. I repeat snow in Dorking

It’s not actually falling, just whirling around in the wind...

[Weathizard]

Sleet in central Brighton, strange.

Anyyyywaaaay. Still dry here in Southend, PPN looks to be moving north more now. Hoping for that big orange clump

Hopefully we all will, but at the moment it seems reminiscent of last march.... The Surrey Hills seemed to miss the worst!

1.5c at the mo with a -2c dp.

Wind picking up also - We have some decent elevation here so I just hope it doesn’t swizzle before it gets to me... 

I think  it's swizzled before it even got to me lol.

As @kold weather patiently explained earlier, the system is shearing ENE and PPN streaming WNW.

bitterly cold out

PS. And don't call me Shirley!!

I don't think I've quite got his moves! Perhaps a snow souwester out of a newspaper?

Yeah, we really did. I can confirm we have snow down here at 60m asl
