This is more your style I think Coast
Fancy a race
-
seen some flakes drifting around in the wind... no settling though...
this is now the snowiest march ive ever seen with lying snow for 6 consecutive days and counting... although its pretty clear now, just deeper drifts left.
Down here in deepest Sussex there still some little bits of drift left from 16-17 days ago.. Not much now though
-
Moderate snow here. A blob has formed just to the east of Crawley.
-
It's changed really quickly here. After about 2 hours of sleet it changed to heavy snow. Settling on everything. Quite a surprise.

As AS has just pointed out, it is coming down fast in Reigate...
We were thinking of going to the Bluebell Railway's east Grinstead opening gala today with the boys... Seems unlikely now!
It it stays like this it would be miserable. Maybe see you there though. Il be wearing a red coat, got the face of a bear.

Sleet here, but sleet that is settling, weird.. Freezing sleet ?
-
First wet flake spotted. Doubt it is going to match last week though. We still have some bits of drifts in the hedges round here. Pics from last week
More flakes now....
-
Which road is that on??
Grinstead lane going down towards weir wood. There were similar drifts round and about. All depends on the orientation of the fields and hedges..

My route to work near Forest Row, Sussex. Photo taken at midday.

Sorry, one is on its side.

Still snowing, howling, blowing

Blimey, what a spectacular. There must be some huge drifts in some of the lanes around here - gotto be . Amazing snowfall. One of the best I have seen in my 53 years. The morning rush hour must be cancelled around here. Still snowing. Venture out and get some pics soon..

This is turning into quite an event round these parts. My kids have seen quite a bit of snow since feb 2009, but tomorrow they are going to see loads of drifts for the first time. I reckon there are going to be some biggies...
-
Just come back from a walk. Widespread 1 to foot snow drifts. Where the snow has blown off the playing field through a hedge into a lane .. Up to 2.5 foot drifts (easily) . And all sorts of drifty shapes. Last time I saw that was 1987. Try and get some pics tomorrow.

Looks like east grinstead has been pasted
Total white out here , a bit difficult to describe... Hope everybody get some of this...
-
My car has its very own snowdrift.. Yea
-
Blimey, gridlock in east grinstead, heavy snow, roads very icy... Yea...

Morning all,
We have got a bit of a white out going here (in between haywards heath and east grinstead). Looks great in the gusts. We could see some proper drifts today.....
Hope everybody gets some.

Snowing here in west hoathly (near crawley). 500+ feet high though...

You can't beat a bit of hight for snow. One of the reasons I moved to the my location was I wanted to be part of the action if it snowed. I would like however, to recommend Tatsfield on the Surrey Kent border. It's mostly above 700ft. I have seen 1963 (several feet) style snowdrifts there in the 80's.
It's starting to get a bit crunchy here - starting to freeze. Wet snow has stuck to everything. Could be good for some photos tomorrow....

Snow here. Doubt it will settle though - we shall see.....
I wish we had a proper mountain in the SE. A small range stretching from Crawley to Ashford, up to about 6000 ft. Is that really too to ask for?
