  1. Met O still bullish for the rest of the night and all day tomorrow/ Saturday here now......
  2. Certainly beginning to look good for us!! I had to drive into Dorking at about half 3 this afternoon. The lying snow from Tuesday petered out just outside westcott... But was flipping cold, never got over 2 in either direction
  3. Hopefully we all will, but at the moment it seems reminiscent of last march.... The Surrey Hills seemed to miss the worst!

  5. Looking like the Surrey Hills snow shield might just be powering up
  6. On the radar it definitely looks like the pivot has started, but I may be imagining it....
  7. Temps steadily dropping here in Holmbury St Mary at 184asl, that's my height, the village is about another 60m lower.
  8. Temps have never got over 3 today in the Surrey hills. This is now in my garden
  9. And astronomical winter doesn't end until 21st March,,,,, plenty of time
  10. I actually think the views from the top of Holmbury Hill are better than those from Leith Hill, especially on days like today!
  11. Have you walked the iron age fort on Holmbury Hill? The earth works very much visible
  12. It's not a natural one, again built by the landowner of Leith Hill tower so I believe. It's also close to the source of the Tillingbourne. This Wikipedia link talks about it:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friday_Street#Tillingbourne_Waterfall This one from the getsurrey website. Some good walks nearby: https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.getsurrey.co.uk/whats-on/arts-culture-news/secret-surrey-11-hidden-fascinating-14352234.amp
  13. It is beautiful, I moved here 19 years ago with a three year plan!!! That's the tower that was also built by the same landowner as Leith Hill Tower. Have you ever found the waterfall between Broadmoor and Friday Street?
  14. We had about 5cm at midnight, but it had thawed a little to about 2-3cm first thing... Not much further thaw during the day, still a lot on the ground tonight and very bitter now!
  15. As a West Sussex boy I'm guessing you mean the south downs nick? However, now I'm living in the Surrey Hills, just of the back edge of Leith Hill, I'm expecting similar conditions here. Also looking at comments previous about the pivot point, an hoping the Surrey Hills could be in the very sweet spot?
  16. Must be close to 2cm proper snow here in the Surrey hills in an hour. Still tanking or down.
  17. Brill..... Is settling very fast here now. In half an hour nothing to close to 2cm
  18. My wife has to drive back home to just outside Dorking from Kingston Uni, this evening does anyone have an idea what it's like between the two? She doesn't normally leave until after 9, with leaving early?
  19. Heavy snow here in the Surrey Hills. Just of the back edge of Leith Hill, so probably closer to 200m. Think it turned from rain only half hour or so ago, but I've been stuck inside until ten minutes ago with no lamppost to watch
