Its been worrying as we have a house and family right there in Folkestone. Been on the phone to the local shopkeeper who went to look at the house for us, apparently our street is closed and few chimneys down although the next street has most chimneys down and someone died from shock. Seen pics of the nearby streets on the news.

Have a great trip team! Really excited for you and looking forward to reading reports and seeing pics, can't imagine how you must be feeling!

Awoke to a light covering of snow this morning here in Brighton unfortunately it was gone by 9am or so. A few hail and sleet showers during the day.

Looked out just before 6am this morning (Thurs 8/2) and the lovely covering of snow was starting to melt already, I could hear the dreaded drip drip sound. By 9am it was all slush on the higher ground where I live. Once at work near Hove seafront by 9.30am there was no evidence of any snow at all.

Was pleased to wake up to a covering of snow on Weds morning enough to make a little snow man and to see cars sliding around on the road or trying to get up a hilll, wheels just spinning! Taking little one to school was a lovely experience with all the local children throwing snowballs at each other and more than usual walking to school - snow creates such a magical atmosphere. It brought back memories of my childhood snow We also walked to school through the local woods and it was so beautiful and peaceful, the snowy silence. Shame it didn't last the day though! Then awoke to a little dust of snow this morning which was nice. Shame I didn't catch any of it falling though! Must get some kind of snow alert alarm to wake me up - or perhaps NW do that with the text alert thing. I also love reading everyone else's experiences and seeing their pics on here! Looking forward to the next x

Awoke to find a light scattering of snow over the ground at home in Brighton, but nothing remaining here at work on Hove seafront this morning.

Mermaid! Hove seafront - In the last 2 pics you can just make out the image of a woman sitting on the end of the groyne. She was wearing a wetsuit and letting the stormy waters wash over. Looked great fun. Shame I didn't have a decent camera to catch her.

Lovely picture. I had 5 flying about me in my garden yesterday, beautiful.

Yes, it was mad! Strong gusts and a couple of overhead strikes. Shame I missed the tornado in Brighton earlier today http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/souther...ies/5396508.stm

It was hard for me to choose between wibs and blackholesun.
