[London & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

New snow is fighting quite a thaw here. Wet ground not covering, grassy patches are being filled in but the overall depth isn't increasing even with all this snow!

not happening in cheriton

[London & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

[London & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

It's great isn't it? Is it all laying nicely down there? Apparently Spitfire Way coming upo into Hawkinge is getting to be passable only with care

[East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

Anyone see my photo on south east today?? :drinks:

[East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

Snow showers are still missing far East Kent, Dover.. we've had one flurry today. is that set to change this evening? Neil at the moment looks like he has better luck

you are not alone! lol the bi blob looks like it's missed us too....tomorrow and overnight tonight look perfect tho

[East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

LeighShrimper , Wind is currently North over Southend

that's better been missing me all day bit of a n wind might just help us out down here

[East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

How come Gravesend has missed everything this week? we have 3cm on the ground.

I'm pleased for everyone else but i seem to miss the snow every cold spell.

we have about the same as that here seems they just clipped us so far all luck of the draw i'm sure you will et it soon although you can't get too much! my best mate lives in gravesend and she's due any day first baby, she will need clear roads lol :lol:

[East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

Lol

Yes of course, it will travel across the Country during Sunday!

Neil, Mr Fish would be right, soryy a bit of IMBY'ism there, it is spreading out on its eastern edge and will include Eastern kent as well, and most of C/W/E Kent this evening

Paul S

thanks i was wondering if it would just skirt past me here but that looks/sounds promising

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

That little blob just N of Calais? Yep... if it follows the same pattern it'll intensify and head straight for us!

hope so

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

I'll drink to that!

Bugger... stopped again!

looks like some more lining up in the sea what do you think?

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

Heh... even Folkestone looks pretty in the snow! :) (Lobs snowball at cat) :)

lol back at u! looks like we might have our own personal snow machine just to the east of us

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

WooHoo! Chucking it down niow! This just arrived out of nowhere! Convection from the sea perhaps? Love the way these showers just form from nothing!

SNOW!.... radar was pretty quiet b4, looks much better 4 us by the minute.

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

There's a thumb sticking up from North/west France and it is heading for East Kent on the Radar... more snow?

i've been watching that blob and it's really shifting too....

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

It lookes like a conveyor belt stretching upwind right towards us... Intensifying all the time.

YES! radar looking good just need that to carry on growing now it's trying to snow atm

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

It lookes like a conveyor belt stretching upwind right towards us... Intensifying all the time.

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

Seems to be magically growing all the time... Just clipping Dungeness now!

looking good will it drift too far west do you think?

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

Think we had a dusting overnight Cat... I'm just down the road from you and everything was much whiter out there this morning!

yeah agreed we've had a dusting, hopefully we'll get lucky today the heavier stuffseems to have skirted round us in all directions and now it's drifting sw but that blob south of eastbourne seems to be growing

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

Got the feeling it'll be heading SW a bit though... It's that big streak S of Eastbourne that seems to be growing towards us that interests me!

http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/pws/invent/weathermap/

run the loop and look at 12 looks promising is that just growing on its own?

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

Continuing to get light snow here as well. Only tiny flakes but it is coming down quite hard - enough to dust the paths. Still, it's better than seeing nothing at all!

Edit: flakes much bigger and coming down quite hard. Weird, because there's nothing on the radar. Anyone else having this issue with the NW radar? I know when the snow is light, it doesn't always pick it up, but for heavier showers it should?

yes had a few light flurries that aren't showing up on the radar but it's spot on with the heavier stuff

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

Damn! Hope so! It's huge!

[East Anglia & Se Cold Spell Discussion]

take a look at that blob coming up over france is that sat nights for us...
