-2.3c, clear, still evening here.

If all you coastal types keep the cloud to yourself tonight we should get some low temps.

Looking forward to Fri in anticipation and urgently restocking on coal and logs tomorrow!

[Charltonkerry]

Steve, just been outside in Dartford and measured temp of -1.7 but not certain of the accuracy.

[multitracker]

Don't forget people that FEB 09 was a very localised area , many areas of mid kent... east kent a MASSIVE area was unaffected by the deep snowfall. Some had none!

That would be me then, hardly any in the feb09 snow. Better luck this time

[Rob]

-2.5 in maidstone

I have a reading of -1-6 and I am in Dartford too so I should think it is accurate?

Perhaps you have a LITTLE wind blowing in from the Estuary keeping temps up a little-

I have -2.6 & dropping steadily still- -4 hopefully by 8pm...

Awaiting the ECM in 20 mins-

Jim Bacon on Look East has Tuesday through to Friday for snow

[yamkin]

drooped very quickly to -1c

[BarnetBlizzard]

Dropped streadily to -2.1. I am very much looking foward the Ecm. If it shows a easterly like the other models it is pretty much nailed on. Apart from the odd downgrade and upgrade i think its looks pretty certain.

[Brocken Spectre]

Current temp here Mid/Nth Kent is in my sig.

Device is a Davis VP2 so should be fairly accurate if anyone wants to use it as a guide, Alt is about 10m ASL.

[Mike Storm]

-1.7c dp -3.4 c Barnehurst. machine is a Technoline ws2300

I have just checked Metcheck,and they are telling me that Brighton will have snow from wednesday night and ongoing through to sat night,are they just covering themselves?

[Dave Clarke]

+1.5ºc here now, but falling rapidly

[kold weather]

Going to be a severely cold night it seems countrywide, my location is about -1C at the moment so getting colder thats for sure, generally between -2C and -4C in the region, temps even colder further north as well it seems!

Anyway looks like tomorrow will be the quietest day of the week here, things going to get very busy from Tuesday onwards.

[NorthNorfolkWeather]

wow -5.8 here 10 minutes ago, but now climbed to -5.7 as I think we're importing some clouds

[Kay]

Are there going to be any more snow showers over kent tonight? as they seem to be disipating as they reach the north kent coast!!

[Neilsouth]

Are there going to be any more snow showers over kent tonight? as they seem to be disipating as they reach the north kent coast!!

i know how good a forecast wos that lets hope we get loads

[chilly milly]

ooh exciting times ahead!

-1.3c here

dewpoint -2.9c

[YokTok]

Is this going to be as beefy as I think it's going to be, I've not seen a outlook like this in a very long time. The only problems is snow is COLD and seems to make everyone drive like morons, I'd be looking forwards to it much more if those two key ingrediants were missings

[Southender]

at last some ppn here. Only snow grains but its a start. Roll on weds...
