We've had lightning mainly to the south of us for the past 1 to 2 hours, now it is becoming more widespread, surrounding us a bit more and the heavier rain has just started, sounding a bit more solid as I write, so I reckon there is hail with it.
However not much thunder as yet, so that part must still be a way off but we are getting flashes every few seconds.
The last twenty minutes have seen a big increase in the amounts of thunder just down the road here in St Albans, with a couple of shotgun claps to go with it. Surprised you guys haven't heard more in Watford.

Very close to the rapid developments north of London here, with one real boom of thunder just moments ago shaking the bed and myself! Unexpected!
-
Wow! That was an unbelievable boom, several flashes and the thunder shaking my bed. Crazy.
-
We seem to have storms rapidly developing over the top of us/not far away at the moment.
Im meant to be up at 7am!

How are your pavements saint. Considering the air temps have been hovering around zero max earlier and been sub zero for the past few hours, surprised that the local pavements are resisting accums
Hi BA, It's a bit of a mix but the majority are getting towards a covering now. Although the road is actually doing better than parts of the pavements still, which is a new one.
Could it possibly in part down to the wind again blowing the snow around?

Looks like those of us in North London/Home Counties could be in for an interesting evening.
Also, I was bloody frozen at football in Essex today!

Still some flakes in the wind but wow what a great snowy afternoon/evening. Conditions are very treacherous out, but it looks lovely.
Guess who was asked to grit the hill into work?! A lovely 45 mins spent doing that! Haha..

Thankfully it seems most people have stayed at home this evening.

Still going.. Best event for the entire Winter. Although meteorology Spring has started. 3pm start...4hours plus.
Blue or Saint has it stalled, Is radar correct...?
Hi mate, its gaining moisture over the Thames so it's lasting a bit longer than expected.
Should have finished by about 9 I think!

doesn't look like it will hang around too long though saint - already quite light and patchy in central london
Oh well, I'll enjoy it while it's falling!

As you'd imagine given its the end of the school day, this snow is creating a fair few issues in the roads....
-
@KoldWeather suggesting in the SE thread that it looks like the back edge is slowing down, possibly the system slowing as some models suggested?
-
Looks like a good couple of hours to come with PPN stretching back to the channel. I'd suggest we all get out and enjoy it while we can!

Oxford City mean't to be away at Wealdstone tomorrow for National League South fixture. Pitch inspection this afternoon, snow covered pitch, frozen underneath. Now starting again, think very very low chance of match being on.
Our game at Bognor was called off earlier, I imagine your game will be off too!

PPN intensifying and filling in south of London as it heads north westwards..
