I'll repeat myself , it's a low pressure system developed in cold air... This low pressure is due to hit EA and SE Tomorrow

Can't wait...... :D

Just see kids rolling two very large snowballs up the street... so big there was about 8 kids... Looks like they're making a snowman on the roundabout near my house but we shall see.

If it were here I would not be surprised to see them put it through someones front door!!!

Peter Cockroft from BBC London Weather said tonight that the piece of ice he held from one of the Trafalgar Square fountain will not melt until February.

Is he going to put it in the freezer?

Tomorrow afternoon looks very good for most of Ea/SE, the south-western part of the zone probably won't get much, maybe a few showers reaching SW of London but not many...to be quite frank you guys down there don't need any more snow full stop really!

Saturday and Sunday still look a bit of a uncertain set-up though IMO....will have to wait and see with that one.

Think you might, if it follows the same track as its brother...we all could!!!

Already a couple of inches already here in Folkestone - think the downs will do very well from this!

Bitterly cold for a couple of days but heavy snow for all SE corner Sat Sun. Expect near time upgrades on this...substantial falls to come.

BFTP

I'm guessing we are too far inland here? Is this that low from France?

Care to explain what happened with the beast from the east in 87 then? The reason that we are getting the snow over the coming days is because the sea is warm, with cold air travelling over it causing convection. Granted, areas close to the coast will never do that well, but you don't have to move too far in land. I lived 6 miles from the coast in 87, and we got absolutely dumped on, cut off for 2 weeks. Not sure we have had loads of snow during this current remarkable winter, but had 4 inches before Christmas, plus it has snowed all but 2 days of the last 7. Northerlies as far as I can remember are rarely that good for Norfolk.

In 1987 Southend had over 2 feet in places! I loved that January as I was only 7 :) We're right on the coast.

Today - Wednesday 6th January.

Heavy snow in Guildford at last. drinks.gif

Snow fell from 6 pm Tuesday 5th to 5:30 pm today with the heaviest periods of snow around 8:15 pm to 9:30 pm last night, 2 am to 4 am then 3:45 pm to 5:15 pm today. The remainder of the time, the snow was moderate with some heavy bursts.

Depths at Guildford ranged from 9~12 cm around 11:30 am to a lovely crisp 15~17 cm by 6 pm this evening.laugh.gif

Satisfaction at last!

I'm pleased Portsmouth & I.O.W. did well out of this too, as posters / snow enthusiasts from there were feeling as disillusioned as I was until last night.

So, no more posts from me on the whining thread for a while, I think. smile.gif

For those who have yet to see decent snow this winter - I hope your wait isn't too long now.

Thoroughly enjoyed doing a 9 hour shift in the supermarket car park in the snow today and working in heavy snow is easier than rain as the snow brushes off clothes and doesn't soak through. The only clothes 'casualty' today were wet work boots as snow infiltrated around the laces and wet trouser hems which froze just before finishing at 8:30 pm.

Lovely frost now so our lovely snow will be preserved a bit longer. Seriously though, this snow could be around for quite a while now and with some hopeful top up snowfalls. Wonder if we will make 14 days of continuous lying snow in January 2010?

I'm back in Norwich this weekend (UEA) and am initially concerned about the long journey, but also oddly at the same time am concerned about missing all the heavy snow due across Kent on Saturday where Norfolk stays dry.

Then stay in Kent :)
