London & The South East Regional Discussion - Part 12

[abovefreezing]

This area isn't in for much so can't see how Croydon can be due heavy unless an area of ppn is going to break of and drift that way, or maybe Croydon council are being a bit ott.

Council workers? Ott?

They dont care. Its not their money...

Now snowing in Great Dunmow, Essex #uksnow#essexsnow just saw on twitter

[Brightlight]

to my novice eye and very generally :-) the major pink on the radar right now is looking very similar to the NAE 6pm chart? So is it on the forecast track or not??? :-)

[BLUNT]

Certainly no Snow here, should be snowing according to the Radar

[Hammer]

Okay so with things more east now..This is my take on things...The red circle indicates precipitation that isn't there.. (error)

The main PPN will still head more to the SW than your arrows show. However I will bank your take on things.....

I think its *slightly* east. But not enough to make any difference. Reckon its a miss!

Little upgrade on the NAE @ 6am tomorrow..XD

[Floatylight]

Well guys can confirm we have a few flakes falling here!

Edit: light snow, so is it really a blip?

Not really. Not unless you like rain...(

Or snow that melts quickly...

We have had a flurry in Braintree which threatened to turn heavy... then died... think there must be an error!

Do tell more. How do you know? Sez who?

[Helvellyn]

It's still moving south to my eye. Wind vectors seem to support this too... question is when will it start shifting SW?

[Floatylight]

Do tell more. How do you know? Sez who?

Seen it in a couple of places so far,something to do with it being so dry?

[lewis028]

Had a feeling the forum was going to be down all night then lol still snowing very lightly here

[zAiN]

Snowing in Chelmsford now and the Met warnings have now included Essex for snow...

[rmc1987]

Some flights seem to have been cancelled ah Hearhrow? Radar shows echoes yet locals say no snow falling. Er what is actually happening?

[Mike Storm]

ooh its getting closer

[95 Degrees]

thats no good is it?

Could be worse, 1.9C a tad high but Dew Points below -1C are fine, and temperature should drop a little more, I think tonight the problem will be how far south and east the snow comes and not the temperature as the snow is from N/NW (inland) rather than saturday where snow hugged the coast bringing offshore winds (from the South).

[Marie]

thats no good is it?

No its pants lol,but to be honest i wasnt expecting snow anyway, after last saturday i am never getting excited about snow until i see it falling from the sky as it can change where and when its going to fall at the drop of a hat

Have they? They overlap - I can see an icy roads warning but the snow line seems to be further west?

[Suburban Streamer]

i wish the met office would hit ctrl+alt+del on their radar - something, somewhere needs rebooting - usually does the trick!
