London & South East Regional Discussion - January 14th 2013>

[pages]

Quick question for the experts. If, and it's a big if, we were to get the undercutting low at the end of the week that the UKMO/ECM are hinting at would we have the same worries with margianality?

No -10 uppers all snow

[Coast]

It's down to radar now, have we all signed up for NW Extra?

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Snowing lightly in Croydon.

The uppers will be OK for snow to fall when the ppn arrives in a few hours time.

I disagree with the MetO regarding rain for the South of the Thames. I think the snow will extend further South than what is being forecast.

I have to agree with you Yamkin... Going to be a close call

[andreas]

A light covering of snow in Crystal Palace, and light snow occasionally falling.

-0.2, DP -1.8.

I think/hope yamkin is right!

I tend to agree, looks lightish until about 5-6pm here then wrap round bring heavy snow from 7pm until tuesday morning.... I think if anything itll be sleety wet snow then heavy powder snow later as really cold uppers dig in.....

Why's that then?

[Croydondazz]

Hope so yamkin, i am in sunbury now then heading hounslow, just cloudy here, hope snow when i get home, keep us posted

[Charltonkerry]

The odd flake still falling in Dartford, on my way to the office in Harlow now, wondering what time I should aim to leave this afternoon to ad void any problems on the M25 as from the forecast the snow will change from snow to rain half way over the bridge :-) can see much brighter weather arriving.

Bit surprise temperature dropped to -0.8 and wet bulb followed it down to -2.2

[Snowman31]

[WillinGlossop]

Temp down here and blue skies visible still flurrying..... 1cm on some surfaces..... -0.5c dew -3c

[sarah7meme]

Met office removed warning for most of Kent today?!!

[snowblues]

I am just below the snow line forecast at the moment for later.Sleety mix for me as it stands,lets hope there is still a little movement south to play with.

[PrettyYellow]

East London has a light covering Not too upset, at least we got something~!

[Laurence Hill]

First we had the "Blob", now we have the "Wrap Around".

Anyone care to talk about the implications of the latter.

Wish I had a crystal ball to know exactly how it will pan out today. Live in Surbiton, have to drive to Sutton Hospital for 11am, 13 y/o's school is in Uxbridge (special school for autistic kids hence distance, and he gets very anxious if I am ever late), and from the BBC maps and Yamkin and others on here, I can see it may well be a 'snow day'... and I don't like driving in snow. (Although goes without saying I LOVE the snow, as does my son, who is gutted not have a snow day already!) Ah well, will just have to slither around the burbs, as I just cannot bring myself to hope for rain!!!!

[sarah7meme]

Snow heavier-radar suggests Ppn that passed is returning?

Very light dusting this morning by the way, but I emphasise 'light', none on pavements or roads, just cars, garden furniture, roof tops etc.
