[Model Output Discussion - the cold has arrived]

Looking at a chart at T+384, you might as well be gazing through a crystal ball given how much the models are struggling atm.

[SE, London & EA - Weather Discussion]

Getting heavier in Wandsworth SW18

Just seems that the GEM is playing 24 hour catch up to the other models. I think it will fall in line with the ECM and GFS.

And how are we explaining the latest UKMO?

[Model discussion - hunt for cold - Christmas countdown]

Will probably flip back in a few hours. Models are a waste of time at the moment 

[Model output discussion 10/02/21]

This isn't being resolved until the weekend imo. Models all over the place, no point making mid-range judgements run to run.

All this event has proved to me is I need to get to the Alps next winter and see some proper snow. Or move to Scotland...Feeling very much like a snow starved Londoner at them moment.

Met O moving towards mild. Petagna on twitter.

Not certain of any duration though and probably unlikely to be "mild".

So are there signs of a Thames streamer overnight or is this going down as the one of the worst easterly events for SW London in history?

[South East, London and East Anglia regional discussion - 8th February onwards]

Not really amounting to much in SW London. This event has been a pretty big let down for this neck of the woods. The short shower a couple of weeks ago produced more settling snow in 15 minutes than we've had in the last 3 days!

[South East, London and East Anglia regional discussion - 8th February onwards]

Most of Gtr London looking good for that band coming through North Essex. Hope the intensity remains or builds. Anyone under it now that can confirm conditions?

[South East, London and East Anglia regional discussion - 8th February onwards]

Definite pick up in intensity again in SW London. Come on! Settling readily as well.

[South East, London and East Anglia regional discussion - 8th February onwards]

Picking up a bit in SW London. Some bigger sized flakes mixed in.

[South East and East Anglia Weather Discussion February 2021 onwards]

Right, calling bust in S London. Meto app updated and it’s dry dry dry. Funny how when it’s rain it buckets down for hours on end but when cold enough for snow...

Doesn’t even feel that cold.

Well, what a massive letdown that was. 

Barely even started yet . We've got the whole week ahead for snowfall.

Unfortunately I can see this starting to fizzle out for anything but the extreme tip of Kent as the main front seems to be moving erratically SE - away from us.  Rain and sleet continue over much of the SE area, but snow confined to the higher parts of Thanet.

Can't see that myself. Everything still pointing to a decent event for many.

Afternoon all

I'm cautiously optimistic about seeing some snow in lowland East London tomorrow or Monday but it never stays for long with the urban heat island effect.

I'd think urban heat shouldn't really come in to it with the temperatures forecasted in the next week. This is't your normal snow event (if it happens). Especially because central London has been largely empty for months

Not looking great for London now according to the Metoffice app. What's gone wrong?
