Paul- you know sleet was a wind up-

the chance of sleet is currently along a line west of london curve sse away down to west sussex where the slightly milder air bends on the curvature of the isolines-

essex / suffolk all fine, kent fine, surrey/hampshire/west london etc possibly borderline

S

Norfolk??

[Jezzer]

Nobody else pleased by those fax charts?

Warm sector midday Monday shunted west to Cornwall?

Lovely occluded front curling round in -6/-7 uppers right over the South East overnight on Monday/Tuesday?

No? Anyone? Oh well.....

By the way, the zero hour fax looks as though someone got bored and decided to see how many fronts they could possibly squeeze in.

I've always thought that overnight Monday into Tuesday could be when this neck of the woods hits a potential jackpot! Latest Met fax seems to back this up

[Lampostwatcher]

meto 17:00 update is now showing increased snow across Mon,Tue & Wed

yes expect the bbc forecasts to change as we go through the evening

[Ben_Cambs]

Norfolk??

Norfolk will be fine!

I'm excited Get that warm sector as far west as possible.

I know mate, just trying to lighten the mood in the thread, should have put a few smilies at the end of my post

[SMU]

anything East or NE of a line from

Oxford-

Reading-

Basingstoke-

across down to

Worthing in that sort of line-

this is subject to correction East or west-

UKMO looked west with the FAX, ECM looked east with the 72 chart

Late Monday into Tuesday and then Wednesday with heavy snow showers look like they could bring something special

[Essex Chelle]

Indeed

My sister has tickets too and will be gutted if cancelled

[Kentish Kiwi]

Driving from Kent to Nottingham (University) around 6ish early tomorrow morning and then dad will be driving back at around 10am if all goes to plan. I've been bogged down by revision so haven't been able to keep up to date with the snow situation... Can anyone advise if we are likely to run into anything on the journeys there or back in terms of snow? Any help much appreciate

norfolking chance ;-)

[Lampostwatcher]

I'd say A40 across through the city snow

[galacticwarrior]

just asking whether it will snow in reading or not? ty

[Weathizard]

Knife edge stuff still then Steve. Just can't see snow here on the coast, surely dew points would not be sufficent due to on shore winds?

[Snowman31]

can someone draw a current snowline on a map if they don't mind. Would be very much appreciated.

Just saw your post steve. The places you describe are quite further West then W London which you say is border line?

Are you referring to your point made that areas west of the above locations are more likely to see sleet and those east of your locations to see snow steve?

[Jo S]
