i too live in barnet and i am starting to get annoyed. The showers keep on dieing out and missing us.

It's snowing again!

Hello, intended to stay quite and not register as been reading all afternoon and growing more and more excited by the hour, now however I cannot contain my excitement any longer and just had to post, I can confirm that it is indeed snowing in Bas Vegas, in fact its looking bloody lush out there right now, having to look at the street light to check its still coming down is a bit annoying now though :-).

Can i just ask, where is the list of people you usually see at the bottom of each page that tells you how many people are viewing the forum? I can't see anything on my screen.

Maybe at times of high traffic they remove it because it's not important really.

Kicking off again in Eastbourne with a veritable blizzard outside. Nice to see Brighton (Falmer) featured on the BBC main news a moment ago with warnings about conditions with special reference to Sussex!!!

That's weird as I am in Eastbourne and it hasn't been snowing in my part of town for at least an hour.

[BLAST FROM THE PAST]

Stopped again , WHY DOES IT KEEP STOPPING.... Bah give me some convective constant snow

Becaue its showers and they are not in an organised band yet....patience!!

I want to talk a little about this 'mild' sector. Outside now with a snowcovering the temps are absolutely bitterly cold. If the snowdept is good by tomorrow then the snowfields will ensure the surface temps are much lower than the projected +2-3c as per BBC and tis will minimalise the affect from this brief less cold sector. Coasts are at risk from the thaw but most places won't be.

Optimum time IMO for the real heavy snow is when most wake up and want to travel to work....or not.

Hi, i know the feeling im on the NE corner of Kent, snow in Canterbury,Herne Bay, Folkstone

all we have had was a heavy shower at dinner time!

Compared to what we got before all we are getting now is just bits and pieces... If it stays like this then 8cm won't happen let alone 3!

patience , whats that? LOL

I just don't get it. I live in the highest place between London and the Ural Mountains in Russia and all I can see is starry skies yet apparently its chucking it down a few miles away in St Alban's. Is this some sort of sick joke you are all playing?

dont get excited - its only left a dusting .............................. plenty to come from the east but 10/15 cms ??......................dont think so

[Suffolk Weather]

Just checked outside - seems there been a heavy shower over the last 15 minutes - grass nearly totally covered - still snowing lightly.

[A Wintry Mix]

Unfortunately, after having just seen ch5 weather, they seem to be of the same opinion as the beeb, in other words we wait untill tomorrow

Hi, lets just hope that it stays as snow all the way,BUT knowing our luck

[Hurricane Debby]

Just spent an hour or so driving around the nearest hilly places to find some evidence of snow, or catch a shower or two, but just nothing out there. Clear skies everywhere. Tantalising distant views of the snowy hills of Kent but just a bit too far to drive. Bit disappointed really as it's back to work in a basement tomorrow. Those nearby showers on the radar must be just missing me wherever i go

Dubmuffin so know the feeling

so what are the debts of snow going to be for the south east as the bbc keep changing they say 25cm then back to 15 cm totaly confused!

Hi Suttonian, which part of Sutton are you located ?

[!SNOW!]

Hi my first post

I like in Farnham in Surrey- any chance of snow here?

Anyone know? I really hope we get some proper snow!

[janetmh71]

Nothing happening here . . . clear sky overhead, have had a few big clouds pass over in the past few hours and still reminants of a very light shower earlier on the grass.

Temp currently -1.6

Would like some snow so kids can have a snow day tomorrow . . . maybe a little too much to hope for but fingers crossed
