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

So in other words my area is 50-50 for snow/rain? As I'm as far north west in Kent as you can get, if that's right then I can see Essex Herts bucks and North London doing well :-)

Yep.

Kent should do well from the wrap around late tonight.

OK. Any Idea what heights the XC winds refer to?

2M I think

wow they are big flakes 0.0

[jaynemc]

Heavy snow now falling in Cranleigh (just south of Guildford) Nice big flakes and starting to settle again.

[MarkQPR]

radar shows sleet..It;s snowing outside :/

Same here. Not big flakes anymore though

Hi Surrey. What are your views on the wrap around low? Is it likely to happen? Im in east kent, likely to benefit from it?

Cant stop using the NW extra radar, its brilliant well worth the money!!

[weathertoski]

First flakes here in Twick

[Coast]

I guess this XC weather temperature map will give hope to those on the Eastern (blue) side as that's where the bulk of the cold is currently:

Hi Surrey, bigger flakes = marginal temperatures I think. Hope it stays the right side of marginal for you

Will all depend later on really... What the low can pick up of the North sea..And actually if it pushes inland (fax charts suggest it does) wind direction will also be key

[sarah7meme]

You don't want big flakes guys!!!

2M I think

Cheers Coast!

Just found it on their website. The wind readings are taken at 10 meters. That would explain the difference between the winds and the radar!!

[sarah7meme]

Blue skies gone ! Off to get puppy from capel

Will report back on return

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Well..The next concern is Ice...There is going to be a lot of that :/

[stainesbloke]

Snow quite heavy here now, good sized flakes Even if it rains later its so nice to see.

[NO LONGER POSTING]

I think I got a bit of elevation at work... Where can I check my ASL?

[fluid dynamic]

all 3 are possible in Redhill!

Indeed, and its just started snowing, will be interesting to see if the Chuggers are still in full effect at lunchtime

[Paul Ashford]

My temp has fallen from 1.2 to 0.2 in the last couple of hours

[Great Plum]

Light flurries in central Reigate currently...

[Dean E]

That will be the surface winds, so around ground level.

This is good news!

The whole band now has turned to sleet apart from the front...This is no bad thing really...Because hopefully the heavier PPN will help bring temps down I have had sleet on the radar for the last 20 mins and it's still snowing...Not sticking (only on grass) but nice to see and I await to see what happens later

[Tom Jarvis]

Only had a dusting here hope my location will get more but I don't think so. Also how is snow prospect for the rest of the year
