Where are you????? (can you stick your location in your profile ta!!! )

[Neilsouth]

wow , huge 50p flakes , gusts.. Looks mental outside all the grass is white now

flysurfer , possibly but its due to last into tomorrow morning. We shall see

EDIT , Haven't seen snow like this since i moved here a good 4+years ago... It's blasting across the sky and across the ground , making it difficult to see further down the road!. It really does give the impression of a small blizzard outside

Looks like the stuff that just hit you is on its way to me in Strood! also looking on the radar, looks like you've got a few more heavy showers on your way before a little break in the showers then more later!

[Paul Sherman]

Yep

Dry as a bone in C London but reliably informed that it is Snowing in Saarfend!

Yes I agree thats the way Im seeing it, up until now only had a brief shower this morning here, but looking at the radar they have really beefed up this afternoon, heres to more

[Guest FireStorm]

FINALLY back home after being out since 7am in a bitterly cold day.

Started snowing around 8am, and at almost 9am the most amazing amount of snow falling.. my black trousers were white in the space of 5minutes. it was beautiful. Now partly cloudy and not looked at the charts or radar.. We all looking good today??

I'm very happy to see snow reports coming in today as my yesterday prediction!!!! Very thankful i made a good call i think.

hurrah for everyone whos had snow today

[lottiekent]

Interesting school run! Left the house at 2pm with barely a dusting and popped into shops...came out 5 mins later to heavy snow and a cm or so. It's continued snowing since (just stopped now) and have had a 1-2 inches with roads an icy mess people sliding and wheel spinning everywhere

More please!

[ZONE 51]

met office warnings

[Shutterbug Netty]

Yayy!!! Essex has gone orange on the met office website!!

Am I right in thinking there is more activity in the north sea than was predicted? Looks to be lots of showers out there on the radar this afternoon, I've got everything crossed that some make it to me
