The system is really beginning to pivot now, judging by last few frames!

About to be clobbered in Reading here according to radar, glad everyone's enjoying themselves more now.

Is it me or is the PPN starting to pivot over SE Wales?
Now you've said it the whole front is basically pivoting lol I was looking at the radar wrong!

Not surprised snow is settling extremely quickly, here in Reading, grass and concrete temperatures are at 1.4'c and soil temperatures are at -0.1'c so expect similar values for the rest of ya!

Ngl the fronts precipitation looks more intense and covers a much larger area to what is suggested even on the latest ICON 12z and ARPEGE 12z runs!

From my eye, that heavy precipitation in the channel has Brighton's name written all over it!

The PPN is weakening very quickly now! across the far SW
It is just a radar glitch, it cannot possibly weaken that quickly.

Since the area of precipitation is moving across the channel too, I'm hoping it will pep up a little further. Ngl West Somerset looks like its going to be absolutely clobbered!

Agreed with @Man With Beard, even if under the darkest green colours on the Netweather radar scale; in an hour period that equates to 1cm/hr of snowfall. If under the yellow for an hour that equates to 4cm/hr of snowfall.
This is because rainfall to snowfall ratio is 1:10.

I expect South/South East Wales to get an amber warning from the Meto today.
Yes especially once the band has almost arrived so they are much more confident on who will get most impacted.

-2.9'c here too, would be nice to hit -4'c and have the chance to get some freezing fog!

Lol, the Met Office predicts in Reading we'll experience 11 hours of snow, from Thursday 5pm till Friday 3am with 4/11 hours being heavy snow.
Anyway's I'm hoping at least the front is a little further south tomorrow as we'll all experience further snow as the front wraps around.

I'm confident that the front won't lose too much intensity as it enters Southern England, it will be continually drawing moisture from the channel and even as the front passes through (if it does) I will expect some showers in behind.

Dew point and temperature have gotten warmer over the last few years, fingers crossed the snow flakes become bigger and wetter.
