Fantastic output tonight for cold weather in the longer term tonight!

Good luck to everyone in the morning, hopefully we can all get our first snow of winter!

See you all tomorrow evening.

[Eskimo]

Going to stevenage on thursday to do a bit of xmas shopping as I'm only 9 miles away!

Oh God, hubby has started already... "No chance of snow, everywhere else will get it, look, look, see.." as he points at the BBC graphics! May I have permission to kill him please!

Aaaaaand, for those of you who remember, we moved Feb this year (it snowed THAT day!) but I have just realised there are no viewable lamposts from either our bedroom or the lounge!!! aaarrrgggghhh!! My old house had a lampost right outside the bedroom window!! Need a new solution... what do other people do? Torches? Bonfire? Walk to the nearest lampost?

[Great Plum]

Last from me for the night... -1.5c at Charlwood at 10pm having dropped 2.1c in one hour... It's a cold one!

[Mrsf16]

Wow, my snow chance for tomorrow just dropped to 21%!!!!

re friday my thoughts of rain snow then rain

http://www.raintoday.co.uk/

i love that 22.15 radar grab

who nicked all the showers to our west

[NO LONGER POSTING]

That stuff over devon..It is not ment to be moving east is it...Its getting it's act together too!

[Me & angel fiance]

Fishers green area , what about you ?

Symonds Green area.. Between Fairview and Gunnels Wood.. So thats 3 of us very close then

[Eskimo]

Anyone know if that precipitation coming down from the North will pep up a little....or are we looking at sporadic wintry showers?

[Me & angel fiance]

Thankfully they still keep them on in Hatfield. They used to do the same in Borehamwood.....

anyway, its looking like we might see something very early. Im up at 5:30 every morning so looking forward to catching some.

will be up about 6.30 so hoping for the same and drive down a1m past hatfield right down to Radlett so if none here in the morning I am hoping to catch a glimpse of some on the way to work

I work on Gunnels wood road! Not looking forward to the commute in the morning if it does decide to snow!

[msx999]

looks like areas SW of london might see something tonight - ppn heading towards berkshire in about 2-3 hours.

[Me & angel fiance]

I work on Gunnels wood road! Not looking forward to the commute in the morning if it does decide to snow!

its a small world!! I will be communting out of here in the morning. Its mad enough on a snow free day so could be chaotic round here. Where do you work then? My son works on it too at Fujitsu

at present with the pressure pattern

watch to our west

later watch north

[Hughsey]

Wow, my snow chance for tomorrow just dropped to 21%!!!!

i would ignore these percentage things. This is all going to be done to now casting, I think we have a reasonable chance of something wintry tonight/tomorrow, 50:50 I'd say.

That stuff over devon..It is not ment to be moving east is it...Its getting it's act together too!

I'm not sure the stuff over Devon will reach us, we want to look further North

[Jax]

I was born in WGC and first lived in London Colney (as a wee babe) before family moved a bit further north (not too far), and I remember as a child the lights all went off at midnight on timers in LC. (Was back in BW last weekend too )

Yeh Do we think it will pep up?

[Hughsey]

The precipitation over the Nottingham/derby area I had expected to die out, but instead it's grown and strengthened in the last hour, good sign perhaps as its moving this way I think.

TBH hope its not too bad as got to do my usual drive to Stanmore to get the tube into town...."sorry no tubes as there is a flake of snow on the track"

[NO LONGER POSTING]

All that stuff over the midlands now falling as snow

[Jan_Bromley]

I think I'm just gonna miss out on this snow. A little sleet perhaps but no snow
