[Ben_Cambs]

As i am a newby, what is everyones thoughts is it going to happen or not, ????????? SNOW.........

has anyone favourable readings or maps which go against met office down grade of heavy snow.??????

There is a blob of precipitation which has left Holland. It could pep up over the North Sea because of a strengthing Easterly wind picking up more moisture. There are a couple of free radars:

Or of course you could suscribe to the Netweather Extra radar

TEITS right again. Light snow here, not settling (too warm) and not amounting to much on the radar. I think he was half an hour out though. Tscch.

Wow, Wycombe did well. Better then us in Chesham but we still had enough to get snowed in , so no complaints.

Light snow started here. Seems to be sticking ot me car, but it's only a few flakes so it's not going to amount to much.

[Ben_Cambs]

Snowing nicely atm, a bit heavier and it may begin to settle as temps drop

[stratty]

somebody has probably answered this already, but why is the convection of showers not happening over the North Sea as was thought? If anything the opposite is happening!

I think it will hit us, and if it peps up over the North sea then things could get interesting

[Squigglytay]

Snowing here for last 15 min. Very light but the odd larger flake now included.

well I'm looking at the dutch radar there seem to be a lot of showers now heading UK way to-night

[BucksSnow]

if it did snow heavy in wycombe tonight would it stick to compacted snow and ice

[Roo]

Oooh, ooh - little snow shower at the moment.......there was a time that this would have sent me running around the house giggling maniacally:crazy:. Now I am just too greedy.......I just look at the window tutting and grimacing...waiting for it to stop which I know it will in a few mins

Oh I can so relate to that! Having a nice little flutter of snow here at the moment and it is just not enough! LOLOL

The bar has been raised....:D

Here for about an hour. Started on and off but now more persistant and heavier

yes been watching it all day, hasn't really changed since last night: looks like a load of precipitation from Holland that just fades out over the North Sea to bring us some flurries This is not convection.
