The only significant snowfall I remember in my lifetime was around March/April ish in either 2007/8 where we got a streamer, and in December 2009/January 2010.
We got a few flurries in 2018 with the beast from the east but the snow amounts was nothing noteworthy in my books.
Hopefully, we’ll get a stonking streamer that sets itself up to bury the south coast in snow. This would go some way for Mother Nature to repair the mental damage she did on me last year, with a measley one or two claps of thunder throughout the entirety of 2020.
Remember these events on the south coast?
April 2008, February 2009, December 2009, January 2010, but the best being December 2010, over 35cm here in Brighton!

It was -4.8c at Shoreham Airport earlier, now 5.2c and RAINING!

BBC are reporting 5-6C below average in parts of the UK so far this June, seems to include most of the CET zone! Strange the CET is running less than a degree below average.

Reached 31c at Shoreham Airport - by the sea, the warmest I’ve seen here for years.

Shoreham Airport on the south coast near me has just recorded 31C - I haven’t seen that recorded here since 2006!

It’s very muggy here on the south coast, already registering 27C at Shoreham Airport. Hot!

Think peacehaven was just too far east from the main area again, slight dusting, glad Brighton and Shoreham had some more, do we except some today?
Potentially some this evening, would be nice!! Hope Peacehaven is the sweet spot later tonight for you!

View from the flat in Brighton just now, pretty unusual sight
Wow, surprised to only see a dusting in Brighton, in Shoreham we have about 2-3 inches :O

Unexpected to have snow here in Shoreham-by-Sea; around an inch or two. Seeing the snow shield over Brighton and much of Sussex last night, I really wasn’t confident!

Quite surprised as in Shoreham it has been coming down for a while now, about 3cm of lying snow.

Honestly I’m quite surprised folk are seeing snow to sea level in places with these dew points.
Quite odd, can confirm more snow than rain here on the south coast near Brighton, although a little drizzle is still in the mix!

Hmmmmm.....

I'm surprised how warm it is here on the south coast, no sea breeze today, wind from the NE, already 28 degrees at Shoreham Airport.
-
Lots of lightning in the distance coming from the coast near Brighton. There's a really heavy burst of rain now!

although I wonder what long range models Accuweather use; GFS?
