How long has it been snowing there?

About 15 mins, sarah

You should be ok up in the hills there

Dont forget your training in the morning....

sleet in greenhithe

[alexisj9]

Such a kick in the teeth. The darker green echoes are literally 10 miles up the road. I'm getting some very light stuff but its all pivoting away south an east of here.

It's still moving sw watch the center, the dry curve, not the ppn.

[Rinse The Raindrops]

pepped up again real steady pace

[Southender]

well for the second time in 24 hours- heavy sleet & sopping wet.

crap location this 1 mile from the QE2...

I will be bloody moving to bluebell hill for 2014!

Ahh sorry to hear that mate. Perhaps it will pep up for you in a bit. It started very light here then 20 mins later we had coverage.

Keefe Close...know it very well ;-)

[tasty_snacks]

Yeah We've had such poor luck..a slight dusting last night ,if you'd even call it that, and sleet followed by rain today

I don't know; I was rather pleased with the 1cm this moning - certainly more than expected and lasted to around 11am.

The westerly extent of the PPN is pushing inland, which is good news in that in means at least S an SE London will see a few flakes falling. We're certainly going to miss the heavy sstuf fthough which is now tracking due south a few miles east of the M25.

[SMU]

Well heavy snow now- so anywhere around here with elevation higher than a tennis net may be ok...

[CrimsonSunset]

Yes, sods law that closeby sees something while nothing but a slushy mix at best. Always next time, your time will come, and will probably be sooner than expected!

Hopefully! I'm from the south coast of Ireland so we always get a raw deal when Ireland gets snow, so its extra annoying being in SE England but still narrowly missing it

[Sussex Jules]

Ooh it's edge of seat stuff

[WillinGlossop]

Temp down to 0c dew -1c tarmac now covered..... Just been out for ciggyin it..... Blowing sideways mind you....

[Paul Ashford]

Snowing here in Ashford - temps a little to high at the moment. 1c but has dropped to .7 in the last 10 mins. Hoping the temps and snow keep falling!

[Shunter]

Heavy rain here and very windy.

Now Heavy snow...... The rain hitting the window woke me and within 5 minutes it had changed.

I woke directly under the QE2, and earliers event was just rain with snow a mile down the road, amazing what effect the Thames can have

Heavy night?

[VillagePlank]

Settling on all surfaces, now. Accumulations don't look like they're are going to be that fast, but, once again Bluebell Hill junction (about a mile up the road from me) looks as if it's trouble for the rush hour,

If it makes you feel any better it really aint that great out here. A 1cm slush fest. Melting away on the roads already.

There's quite a few properties up there...I'm looking for an investment place....could be good as then I would have a constant reporter in the tenants lol

[abovefreezing]

Well I was gonna give it 10/10 for effort and 0/10 for achievement, but

Just peeked outside, and beginning to settle on cars and grass in the last 5 mins

Belting down!

Lost a whole degree of DP in the last hour.

Stil needs to keep it up...

[Rinse The Raindrops]

[lewis028]
