  1. temp has slowly risen a little in last hour.... now at -0.1c The odd flake falling ( if you look closely enough ) and no melt of overnight dusting
  2. Temps remain below freezing here currently -0.4c Overnight dusting of snow remains. Sun made a brief appearance earlier after a few flurries earlu morning. Now cloudy again but dry at present.
  3. Although mostly graupel rather than decent sized flakes - its just starting to show signs of settling with the occ heavier burst As before, temps still slowly reducing - now at +1.2c
  4. Hi - afraid my Oregon remote weather station dosent give DP but I can confirm the temp continues to fall - now stands at +1.5c Do bear in mind I am on North Downs near Lenham / Charing so that little bit higher up here than Ashford.
  5. First few small flakes of snow about half hour ago - gradually getting a little heavier and more persistent. Temp has gone down pretty quickly in last hour - was +3.3c for a while but now down to +1.7c and falling Just goes to show how in these situations, snow can pop up almost un-expectedly. Met Office warning just issues looks good for Kent so could be an interesting pm and eve.
  6. hip hip hooray..... the first flakes starting to fall here. Temp continues to drop away now +2.5c hopefully the start of a great few days Nr Charing, Kent ( on North Downs )
  7. temp has fallen away a little in last half hour here - now down to +2.9c Cloudy but still dry so far though seen reports of sleet and snow nearby so here's hoping..... Nr Charing, Kent on North Downs
  8. Yes, very funny Coast Lovely wintry scene here - snow gently falling with hardly a breath of wind and laying instantly onto the frozen ground. Just a dusting but a total suprise. That's 3 days now where snow has fallen ( albeit just small amounts ) here this Dec so not a bad start to Winter. edit - snow stopped now but lovely whilst it lasted.
  9. its snowing here - totally unexpected !! Decent sized chunky flakes too - where has that come from ?
  10. Overcast Cold and Dank. Temp now up to +4c Looking forward to next week. I'd be very suprised if we dont see some snow but regardless of how much it should certainly be seasonal and a great start to winter.
  11. A few flakes in amongst the light rain here. Was snowing quite heavily about half an hour ago at top of Charing Hill and starting to settle - just shows what an extra 200ft or so elevation can do sometimes. temp here rising slowly now +2c
  12. Temp eventually made it above freezing and hovering now around +1c Feels ruddy cold out there - still a little snow about from yesterday and hoping might see a few more flakes tomorrow morning..... before alot more next week ( here's hoping !!! )
  13. Still a bit of snow lying in places. Temp only got up to +1.2c
  14. Started snowing here ( nr Charing, Ashford ) at around 7.45am and has been on and off since - big chunky flakes at times and a slight covering on all surfaces. A lovely start to winter Temp +0.2c
  15. Was -6c at 7pm but risen a bit to -4.5c now. Perhaps won't see -10 after all
  16. -6c already at 7pm. Surely on way to minus double figs and coldest night here for years. Still a fair amount of snow from last sat night fall ( had approx 16cm ).
  17. Light flurry. Temp had dropped to -5.2 but now up a little to -3.9 since cloud moved in. Hope for a dusting to re-cover the cleared paths etc - getting greedy measured level 16cm on sun a.m and altho some melt on Mon there was v little thaw today with max temp of just -1.0c
  18. Continuous mod snizzle most of morning with occ heavier burst. Many surfaces now white. Very bleak and v cold day with max temp so far today of 0.5c (current 0.3c) so almost an ice day.
  19. Fairly persistent light graupel in last hour. Enough to show on a few surfaces / roofs. Temp 0.4c
  20. just had sharp burst of graupel - now just v light. temp falling slowly now +2.0c Hopefully the start of things in what will hopefully turn out to be a great spell of winter weather - finally !!!!
  21. An occasional few flakes now rather than the earlier grapel. Temps have slowly crept up to +2.3c I see the model output forum has turned to the prozac - love peoples input and enthusiam in there and makes for ( usually ) enjoyable and interesting reading but my, I wish people would occasionally remember which country they live in with regards to winter expectations.
  22. Light / mod graupel type snow here for last half hour - not doing anything but nice to see all the same temps hovering around +1.4c
  23. had a few flurries in last half hour. Started sleety but in last few mins have been mostly snow and some pretty chunky flakes too. Nice suprise - temps fallen away currently at just +1.8c
  24. I almost feel guilty for saying this, but its still going here - its just dosent want to stop it seems !! Having measured a level depth of 29cm before lunch today, there must have been a good 5-7cm more since at least Is there anyone else from mid-kent anywhere nr here ( nr Lenham ) that can give provide an up to date temp... ?? My oregon has been saying temps have been around +0.3 to +1.0c all day and most of last night and yet the snow just builds and builds with no slow thaw at all - even early this morning when amazingly it wasnt snowing for an hour current temp showing as 0.8c which is an increase of half a degree in the last half hour
