Satrep website shows some areas of enhanced cumulus which should hit the south east a bit later, I guess there might be some wintry precip but are temps of 3-4 a little on the warm side for any snow fall? NAE & GFS precip charts look pretty sparse as well.

2nd frost of the season here, with a low of -0.2C.

[Snowangel-MK]

Nothing for anyone today, except a tiny ickle corner of Kent and right over Eastbourne and Hastings!!!

Well I've had something already here in MK - about two hours of intermittent graupel and very light snow (like dandruff) but it's settled on top of the very thick frost we woke up to - flakes have got bigger in the last half hour or so, probably because the temperature has risen to 1°C

Amazing really, we not long ago had a moderate rain & sleet shower, but looking directly above me in the sky, lots of blowing snow. Snow flakes in amongst the heavier rain.

Another heavy shower approaching on the radar. Hoping for a heavy wet snow shower and I think that will be that!

Yes for about 5 minutes in about 20 minutes of snowfall, it was some of the biggest flakes of snow I have seen in many years. A pleasant surprise, shame it was a week early.

[lewis028]

Heavy snow now

Heavy Snow in Rayleigh, tbh biggest flakes I've seen in ages but not settling.

[BLUNT]

Seemed like a very wet snow shower had huge flakes in it, but also it had some rain coming down with it as well!!

[yamkin]

More ppn moving down from the Cheshire Gap. Let's see what materialises as the ppn get's closer.

[Team Jo]

Well it missed us here completely boo.

[Sungirl]

Where is this new weather front coming from? I didn't expect snow now until after Xmas but netweather giving us 50% chance around 6pm tonight... that is a higher percentage than we had earlier in the week. (35% from now until 6)

I have to go out later... wondering if I should bring that forward a couple of hours?

Anybody able to give me an idea of what is happening please as i've not been able to catch up with weather news?
