Eagerly looked outside to see the same view I get most mornings ;-)

Chin up I guess, as my own advice is don't go by snow forecasts ot more then a few hours out as they change so much and that certainly has been the case here.

At one point we were looking at 15cm across the SE but most though having seen falling snow but nowt settling.

Think the next chance for significant snow is the weekend now?

This is probably the most marginalised snow event I can remember for a while. Think we are all suffering model and snow overload

Morning everyone

I pt up at 3 to see it had snowed, then woken up just a second ago to see...not much lol. It's all melted. We don't seem to be doing that well at the moment. I'm going for 3rd time lucky. Fingers crossed

Nothing here! Not even icey! Hubby is a driving instructor so it looks like his pupils test at 8.30 will go ahead after all!

So how's it CURRENTLY shaping up for the rest of the week then?!x

Got up in the night around 3am to see if we had snow (Rainham, Kent). I was excited to see a really good covering (I wont guess a measurement as I know how particular you lot are), but roads, pavements everything covered. Woke up eagerly at 6.30 to look outside and nothing on the road or pavements it had melted and the only evidence still on the cars and grass! Really disappointed. Fed up now, got totally obsessed with this site, spent far too much time on it and 'snow watching', gonna get a grip now and get on with real life. lol

Morning all!!

2°C on the drive this morning but dry as a bone so no windscreen scraping thank goodness. Glad to see some members had a dusting overnight and maybe if you are in Eastern Kent today you may see some more?

This is shaping up to be the worst cold spell in terms of snow that I can remember.

Plenty of time for that to be downgraded.

I wouldn't be sad to see this cold spell end. Get in another cold spell with a decent setup that actually delivers something.

Or conversely upgraded? You've got to look at both sides of the coin! smile.png
