M20 looks rough tonight, some poor soul is stuck

[winter watcher]

Only said more to come which is the case. Nothing big snow-wise from any of my posts apart from one heavy shower earlier in the evening.

Never said you did but the point i am trying to make is that unless a rouge 5 minute light snow shower which will not produce in terms off settling floats your boat. Then may as well turn in see my point?

Poor thing. It will take sometime for someone to rescue him tonight!!

I had a crash there some years ago, hate that road now, even though it was a burst tyre I still shudder when I pass MY crash barrier. [they even billed me for a new one]

Hope he gets rescued soon.

He's been recovered now Bri. Motorway looks a bit treacherous in Kent

[cj114]

Oh good. He must be frozen.

That's good. It's not the best time of day to be stranded like that.

Should go to bed - the rest of the house has now, but one of my cats still wants to play, dashing in and out of the cat flap and batting snow around!

In the last twenty minutes or so, snow has become quite persistent after a lull - mostly moderate, a mix of graupely snow and then fine polysterene and big flakes. Like it is building up to something

*she says hopefully*

I am off too, have to be up early. I think our showers are over, they are just skimming past us now.

My Cat's just hate Snow, getting on a bit and cannot be bothered with it. lol

Hope all get what they wish for, think Kent will!!

Nite all.

Haa haa, this is becoming quite an exclusive club tonight, i had planned on going to bed, the stars were out, but just like your area, it apears to be bulding up to something again here.

So the outside light is on, might have to head out in it again if it kicks off heavy again. The NE wind has also realy picked up here blowing snow all over the place.

My weather station is a useful tool tonight, under clear skys the remote sensor drops to -2c, when a snow cloud arrives it climbs like clock work to -1c.

That's right. You just don't know what kind of wild animal may be roaming the streets.

It's cloudy here and the temperature has shot up from -1.8c to 0.0c on the dot. No snow though...actually just seem 1 flurry but may have been an insect or spec of ash.

still showers feeding in off the N Sea into far SE. looks like the disruption for kent will be bad in the morning.

just thought... hope my train home has not got to come from Kent to get to charing cross in the morning. dont fancy been stuck here in work lol

[Optimus Prime]

Nope must have been some Ash. The local chavs probably burning down a school or church.

I'll be in, for a short while. Was thinking of hopping in bed. Just realised I had not pre-heated the room. I can't sleep when its 9 celsius in there! lol. So got 3 heaters in there to warm it up. Snows stopped here for the moment. But wind is whipping snow everywhere, footprints quickly covered etc.

Just spotted this novel use of the snow outside, wonder if they accepted:

That slightly lumpy area of snow on the beach, thats my snow angel, which has almost been covered already by the blown snow.

[john pike]

my first post on here but been on site for a while now

just started snowing again and could be a bit more going by radars

if it does not peter out.

Hi Tamara, looking at the radar image, I'm not surprised

[Guest North Sea Snow Convection]

Gone from white out to just a curtain of snow now, Still very heavy though

Edit: blizzard conditions again.

There might have been much deeper snow in January but this is the heaviest snow I have seen of the winter!!

Hi Brian - it is going totally mental out there atm!!

[Snow Cat]

Hi Brian - it is going totally mental out there atm!!

Whereabouts are you on the Kent borders?

[Guest North Sea Snow Convection]

Whereabouts are you on the Kent borders?

I'm near Rolvenden between Hastings and Ashford

It seems like a streamer has set up or something

I'm pleased you're getting a good pasting. It makes my 1.5cm covering seem a bit pathetic

It has and it's chucking it down here again!. Shame I am about to go to bed.

Kind of tempted to wake up early and see what snow we have had overnight!.
