Can you take a pic of the depth? I believe you, just want to see how deep the snow is down there! :cold:

Give me 2 mins to upload :cold:

Is that just from today's snow MW? If so share it out a bit!!!!

No that's just what's lying on the floor lol. About 6/7cm today so far.

finally seems to be easing off here a bit now - been out for a re-measure and we now have 29cm ( measured in as sheltered spot as possible ). We've had around 7-8cm's today alone since mid morning.

Hence, we should easily get up to and over a foot once the main band hits...

temps up a little again - back to 0.4c

Still virtually nothing in Dover, we've had the odd shower this afternoon but so light and quick it barely settles.

I'm hoping that massive blob in Holland hits East Kent but I hold my doubts :lol:

Interesting watching the bbc forecast on the website suggests quite a bit more snow on Monday, possible a countrywide event?

I am totally amazed at how much I have here, I have never seen this much snow in my life! Truly amazing and it just keeps on falling!

Anyway, pics as you requested...

Using 30cm ruler...

and my car. The left hand side of the car (passenger side) has been exposed to the sun everyday so all the snow slides off here, only to be replaced overnight., Hence there is a lot more on the roof than on the left side !

Hope that helps :)

Last time I can recall a day like today would have been sometime in the 80's. Light/Heavy - sometimes blizzard conditions throughout the whole day. We must have had at least 9cm today and now have 18cm lying on the grass. Considering I am a stones through from the sea it's truly amazingyahoo.gif

My sister has asked me to ask how much snow to expect tonight as she's off out - I told her it's a silly question as it all changes so much but promised to ask anyway.

The latest beeb forecasts graphics were absolutely abysmal. It only showed a tiny blob of snow over west Kent and east sussex, even though at the moment there's snow falling all over the south east. He then said the snow shifting north and westwards over the next 24 hours, but there was virtually no snow on the map!

I think the met office should extend their warnings further east because here in Surrey we have had just a tad over 2cms fallen today and that was unexpected. Tonight i think we will see even more snow and a lot heavier.

you mean further west?

Just had a stroll up to the A414 and its crawling along with a lot of snow on the road. You should be OK but lots more snow to the NE moving through in the next 90 minutes.

Maybe - But you got a good dumping earlier you were lucky - here it has been ok but not the deluge that I was expecting because of the veering of the wind. Still tonight could and may still deliver as Kent is still in the mind's eye's of the forecasters lol! <_<
