Dover has done a lot better with this one. Dover had to wait till break down day last time, and even then it started as ice rain.

There's a Thames streamer now, but it going WNW rather than wsw due to wind direction, so get Essex and north London. Should come back south later.

Looking at cloud direction, seem the wind here is ESE as well now.

We've lost our sun, for now, don't know where the cloud is coming from though, checked sat and I don't think it's from the front in France yet.

There wasn't one forecast, but the winds do now seem to be ESE which is sending the band slightly north of where it was. Low in South close enough to change direction of the iso bars perhaps.

Snow, well it's a convergence line. Basically what happening further north now.

Watching the front in the south, I think Sussex might actually get a suprise today. It hasn't swivelled yet. Though don't get your hopes up, it might do so any time., But worth watching while it still has northerly movement.

I've got bright sun shine on my ice now, wondering how much will melt before tomorrow.

Nah I think it's already on the swivel, though I will keep an eye on it.

Looks like the actual Thames streamer is happening now, it's that thin line of heavier snow, heading wsw, good luck.

All it did here was fill foot print then drift off somewhere. But it was nice falling till I went to sleep. The trick now is keeping the ice with all this sun about, so tomorrow's snow can do the same.

Looks like the uppers are also east north east now, my streamer is done, enjoy London and through. Did land here, but not in large numbers, the due point is very low. -6 that does effect amount of snow. So enjoy watching it fall, I'm not sure about landing though. Hope it gets heavy. It'll land then.

I think it will too. Looks an interetesting night, for where ever the Thames streamer lines up, and here too. The showers coming into Dover seem to be getting a little stronger now.

Don't worry to much about that, it a convective band, it'll act like showers, though most of the time it's holding together.

Might explain the band of snow, if we keep temps like that someone posted earlier

Yep same here, it's nice. Although snow on ice in the morning won't be.

Good knows, I think like I said it starting. I'm just wondering if anyone else saw that flash a little while ago. But I guess just me and the other poster. Who just happens to live near Maldon.

Me too, just came to ask if anyone had thunder, plus I'm miles from you.

It's starting now I think.

I think the GFS is wrong, I'm looking at quite a few decent shower heading east over Essex right now, by the Thames. If they band together the game is on, and it'll be decent.

Don't panic the main event is approaching now, it'll be grand.

Yep that was lovely, and looking at radar perhaps a lot more behind it, hopefully it should pep up a bit.

Lol, oops.

Is it occluded or something, otherwise we are are going to be seriously cold before it comes. I think it's unlikely.

What's falling here is powder snow, but it's so windy, I'm just watching it blow down the street. Got to find the drift tomorrow.
