So much for the medway snow shield- more like the se London/ nw Kent and by the sounds of it south Essex snow, normal service resumed in Kent with medway&East getting the snow like 9out of 10winters do. North Essex has done so well in all the marginal events this winter jammy. ... . . !
Medway has had 30 minutes of sleet and now nothing to top off a cold spell that has delivered little here but a lot to most of the country.

Actually, we had about half an hour of heavy sleet and now nothing.

Snowing in Rochester.

Woahh new BBC Weather zoomed in graphics were pretty awesome!
National forecast showed snow North of the Thames, wintry mix south of the Thames.
-
Credit to the GooFuS for tonight it stood up to NAE and laughed in it's face.
The GFS has been completely wrong. If the GFS was right virtually no-one in the UK would be seeing snow bar high ground in the North.
-
Still think the rain will turn more to sleet and snow as the precipitation levels pick up. More likely to be snow North of the Thames but a wintry mix of rain, sleet and snow further South.
-
Wait for it people....... Your sounding like the north west forum at 5pm...... Its coming.....wait for your dewpoints to drop off again.....
I'm thinking that as the heavier ppn moves in we'll see more in the way of sleet and snow. I think some people may be speaking too soon!
-
GFS was bad for other parts of the country that are seeing snow just happens to be right for are region and NAE was the opposite wrong for us and right for other places!
Yep, GFS had rain for most of the country which is wrong.
-
Raining here near Watford i'm afraid.
May turn to snow as the ppn levels get heavier.
-
Yep. GFS looks set to win this one. Impressive.
GFS shows barely any snow anywhere so I wouldn't say its been correct at all. Dew point here is still -2, by the way.
-
Met Office have obviously seen something to warrant the update of their warnings. Think positive, people!
-
Meto have just updated warnings further South and further West
Yep, most of us are now under a yellow warning for snow - http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/warnings/#?regionName=se&tab=map&map=Warnings&zoom=7&lon=-0.50&lat=51.35&fcTime=1359028860

Dew point has fallen back down to -3. Back in the game!
-
Temperature has risen to 1 degrees and dew point is up to -1. Uh oh!
-
1degrees, dew point -3. Warmest its been all day!
-
Pete C getting the word mild in his forecast...not happy
Was it a forecast for The Arctic by any chance?
-
Latest National forecast from the BBC appeared to remove the snow risk for areas South of London.
-
And I will be after them next time we get an easterly outbreak, and I have to see weather warnings for Kent and Essex while London gets bugger all!
I haven't seen a single snow shower from an Easterly in over 2 years. Not all of us in Kent get plastered by snow in that setup!
-
Latest NAE keeps the snow risk for some of us at least - http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/cgi-bin/expertcharts?LANG=en&MENU=0000000000&CONT=ukuk&MODELL=nae&MODELLTYP=1&BASE=-&VAR=prty&HH=36&ZOOM=1&ARCHIV=0&RES=0&WMO=&PERIOD=

BBC South East just now showed the weather front falling mostly as snow across the South East.
-
I had a quick look on model thread too and got out quick ! lol
Oh and no snow in Rainham as usual.... spend all my time reading about people having snow either side of me very frustrating..
Same here. Sunday's snow has now all melted as well.
-
Snowing in Harrow again? Unbelievable. This cold spell has been decent here but we've only managed one proper snowfall and temperatures never dropped as far as I thought they might (mainly due to cloud cover). I'm glad we've had a break from the mild rubbish we normally have to put up with anyway and I'd be surprised if we don't see more cold weather this winter.
-
Yep, me as it happens.
A period of snow is shown for the weekend but it would turn back to rain after a few hours. There has been a slight trend however for the trough to dig further south on the last couple of runs. If this trend is repeated in the morning we could be looking at a significant snow event in the SE. It's not there yet before anyone gets excited, but with the models its important to look at the trends from run to run rather than just the one chart. This additional resistance from the block is sneaking up on us quietly.
As an example of how a poor looking chart can deliver big time if someone can find it its worth posting up the chart from last feb which at face value looked rubbish.

Wouldn't bet against it. The models, in particular the GFS, tend to overdo Atlantic incursions and are often too progressive with any breakdown of blocking and cold conditions. Wouldn't surprise me if we did see a decent spell of snow though I do think the Atlantic will push through and bring milder conditions, at least for a while. My main concern for the chances of a breakdown being snowy is that the uppers won't be particularly cold, only around -4 to -6 I think.
-
Mod thread someone mentions possible snowstorm for the se?
Can't see anything like happening, but you never know :-)
Snowstorm? When?

Last night was a poor end to a pretty poor cold spell here. We managed one proper snowfall whilst most of the country saw several. Also, the snow we did get lasted about a day before it thawed rapidly. Hopefully February will bring something better!
