Still light and it’s just gone past 9.30 we will soon be approaching the longest day and the much needed relief of the nights drawing in.

Just now, knocker said:
Interestingly the lit 'low' actually formed of the front around 12 and can be seen on the 18 fax. It was at this time that moderate rain turned to snow here as the low level winds gusting 40 mph ceased and became calm
@knocker what is your take for the rest of the evening?

Wow- how can shanklin be so different??! The ground is SO wet now and although it’s started snowing its a wet snow that doesn’t want to lay! Any idea how much longer it’s in for? I’m hoping it may lay if we have a few more hours n temp drops bit more?
Probably a bit too close to the coast - it should pivot back around for a bit I hope!

Using the Netweather snow radar app on my android device, doesn't cost a thing.
The Netweather App is not that great on Apple IMO and the home and dry app gives you forecast as well. Perhaps I should get an Android phone!!! I am due an upgrade!!

Do u think we’ll get any?? Met o showing us as heavy rain all evening
Yes I think we will get some snow, it will be hitting at just the right time, maybe a bit more marginal for you in Shanklin though.

What app is this from Bobafet?
Home and dry on Apple - they have a rainfall and snow app - you have to pay £1.99 I think? They are really good apps and worth the money.

Am I seeing a difference with these two forecasts that have just been released by the BBC and METO, or I am seeing them wrongly!!
They are a bit different! I’m on the side of the Metoffice forecast rather than the BBC.

For my location on the Isle of Wight you get the best sunsets in November early December, so for me it doesn’t matter what time it sets. It really is the most wonderful time of year here.
For some of us we don’t like the long days of light so yearn the dark mornings and early evening. I do get genuinely depressed about the long hot days. Plus having two young kids the earlier it gets dark the better!
