Just woken up to find heavy snow falling here in north east Hampshire. I don't think its been falling for long, but it it definitely settling. Didn't expect this!

Light snow has just started here Other than this, there has been nothing falling today. It has been grey and gloomy!

Still moderate snow falling here. So that is 3-4 hours of it now. Only settled on cars/grass, 1-2cm. I have just returned from the supermarket and the roads and paths are clear. I can't say the same about the car park though! I decided to park on the top level and it was completed covered. Made a very interesting and slippery walk between the car and the stairs! A couple of pics of my garden: https://forum.netweather.tv/gallery/image/17578-683/ https://forum.netweather.tv/gallery/image/17577-682/

Thanks for the info Timer. Might see a light covering by the time it has finished then

Been snowing moderately here for the best part of an hour now. Only just settling on cars and grass though. Looking at the radar, it looks as though we could have this for a couple of hours. But will it stay as snow?? I don't have access to any temps/DP's (phone app is useless and no weather station of my own) so I can't keep an eye on that!

Big wet snowflakes mixed in with rain here. Definitely not settling though. It has been like this for the past hour but, unless the rain stops and leaves just snowflakes, I can't see this coming to much! I still have only heavy rain forecast for tomorrow, with a brief change to sleet early monday morning. So I will be keeping an eye on whether the low does shift south tomorrow. We will be out celebrating my son's 11th birthday so, from a selfish POV, could it wait until after 8pm??! I don't fancy being stuck in the car with 3 children

I hope you are right. On the radar I keep seeing a hole appearing just over Hampshire! I'm assuming the met office think that the band will keep pepping up.

Still fairly heavy snow here. Looks around 2cm, judging by the snow on top of my car. Quite tricky to tell in the dark though! The met office have heavy snow for me for the rest of the day, and light snow for tomorrow until 6pm. Looking at the radar though, it seems to be fizzling out to the east of this region? Hopefully I'm seeing things!

Big, wet snowflakes have been falling for just over half an hour now. Just starting to stick the the pavements where last friday's snow has been cleared away. If this keeps up we may see a decent amount in a couple of hours!

And it has just started raining!! But it has a really sleety appearance, so I wouldn't be surprised to see it turn to snow soon Temp is around 1c (according to accuweather phone app) Definitely sleet/snow now. But Timer beat me to it!!

Radar has been showing ppn over this part of the region for over an hour now, but I can assure you that there has been nothing. No rain, sleet, snow, drizzle, snizzle or anything else that could possibly come down!! Metoffice app has heavy snow for me at 3pm and 6pm, so something has to turn up soon!

Nothing here yet Kiwi. I think I am about 20 miles south of you? It can't be far away!

Some of us are here! I am keeping an eye on the radar. The met office has the heavy snow arriving here around 6pm, but the band of precipitation seems to be heading NW. So I'm not highly confident of a lot of snow here. Still, these things can change at the last minute so I know I will be checking that radar every half an hour or so!!

Hmmm, that 1st heavy band appears to be pivoting North-West. So it may miss us completely. However there is a small (less intense) band coming up behind which seems to be going North-East. I'm not convinced we are going to see a lot of snow out of this

We definitely cannot complain in this part of the region! The past week has been great for snow and cold lovers. Looking at the radar, the possibility for this evening looks good too. Provided that band of precipitation continues north! At the moment, the met office have me down for light snow from 3pm today until 9am tomorrow, with heavy snow at 6pm tonight. A radar-watching day, methinks!

Around 3-4 inches here and snow is still coming down, so I expect to see at least another couple of inches added to that Can anyone in Southampton tell me how bad it is there? My other half has to drive from Basingstoke to Southampton and I've heard there are problems on M27, M3 and A3. Plus roads in southampton too! I am trying to persuade him to come home but need a strong argument as he is being stubborn!!

Unbelievably, I have just returned from the school run. Yep, my kid's school is OPEN!? And because I live just around the corner, there was no way I could get out of it It is horrible staring out the window wishing I could be building snowmen with the kids, instead of them sitting in the classroom. Anyway, a good couple of inches here with fairly heavy snow fall. Fingers crossed the school change their mind very, very soon!

Morning everyone. I have just woken up and we have light snow here. There is no more on the ground than last night, so I guess it has just started here. I've had a quick scan through the thread so I can see it's on it's way!! Now it is a waiting game to see if the kid's school is shut. T-80 mins until decision time. Come on snow!! Right, going to make a cuppa and have a proper read on here!

My kid's school has sent exactly the same letter I think. Will let us know by 8.15 too! But if things work out right then I'm sure we'll know well before then

There must be about 1cm lying now! I'm just about to check the local forecast because I haven't looked since I went out.

I've got a bone to pick with someone!! Just returned from school. I had been inside from 3.30 until 4.45 watching the kids play football. And I have just walked home through enough snowfall to completely cover the roads, grass and pavements. Not to mention covering me and the kids! And it's showing no signs of slowing down. Where did that come from? I don't recall any snow forecast for today??! Seriously though, it was a nice surprise. And hopefully a small taster of tomorrow

Morning everyone. I have been catching up on everyone's posts since last night and I assume it is still game on for tomorrow then??! Currently -2c here and I think it went down to about -5c overnight (really need to get my own weather station!). And looking at my MetOffice forecast for friday, I now have heavy snow forecast from 9am until 6pm, with light snow right through until saturday pm . If that happens we could well be buried in this part of the region! One concern is the timing. If this hits us after everyone gets to school/work then it could cause chaos with everyone trying to get back home. I may find myself collecting the children from school after just a couple of hours! Anyway, I'll be struggling to get much done today as I'm sure I'll be on here most of the time!
