London & South East Regional Discussion 16/01/13 18z------>

[Tom Jarvis]

Anyone watching that slow band of precip moving east wonder what time it will reach us. :)

[Kent Blizzard]

Today has warmed up very fast, whats going on?

Hope this doesn't happen tomorrow to, maybe the sun is stronger then we thought at this time of the year.

Hope this doesn't happen tomorrow.

More cloud base tomorrow

[bobbydog]

i'd say stays the same or moves slightly west but thats not in the options!

[Kent Blizzard]

Interestingly, Nick Miller said areas would be upgraded to red. Graphics stopped at 3pm Friday and then jumped to Saturday morning.

NO mention of Friday night whatsoever

That's a good thing imo, they don't want everyone panic buying just yet lol

[Southender]

Temp has indeed rocketed.

Up to 1.7c with a dew of -3.4c

That sun is a killer.

[tonbridgemole]

Met office update is slow today bet there are a few grey hairs in Exeter this morning

its already been updated http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/se/se_forecast_warnings.html

[Downpour]

Horse meat found in Tesco burgers. Camel toe found in Primark leggings.

Don't take that story as Red. Rum business this.

[Tilly]

I would say the majority of people saying the temp has jumped have poorly placed thermo's or not very well shielded. Mine is a Vantage Vue and the shielding isn't great, but temp here still only 0.6C. It basically becuse the sun is out today whereas yesterday was foggy.

I'm talking about the text update they do every morning

[hernebaylooby]

It's unbelievable tesco's are selling their burgers 50% off , everyone's jockeying for position

any hoo back to the weather snow has stopped now and that big yellow ball has re appeared

[Updraft]

So, how many hands deep will the coming snow be? I'll take the hoof if it's less than one!

It's certainly warmed up fast today here in East Kent, the snow that fell yesterday/last night is thawing.

[Coast]

I remember when you used to come here and talk about the weather, lmao

Really, have we any of note coming up then??? :lol:

Same weather station here, currently at 1.3C and rising.

[VillagePlank]

bloody brilliant! Office laughing their heads off!

My waitress asked me if I wanted anything on my burger. I said "Yes, please. I'll have a fiver each way". Someone's told me that Tesco's meatballs are the dog's b****ks.

It think that all horse/burger jokes should be reined in. It's going to stirrup too much trouble.

I'm going by this, and the fact that my house is warmer then yesterday, I've no weather station yet but will be getting one soon I hope.

My heart tells me I hope this is right for health sake- How much have you had this week? Thought you easterners would have been bored of it by now I feel sorry for my poorly grandparents who live near Herne Bay for their sake I hope it doesn't get more snowy as they won't even be able to go shopping for essentials :-( I know how much us youngsters love it though

1st of all how can you get bored of snow ..?

2nd yes its been snowing in Thanet, but nothing bloody settles for more than 10 mins then the sun comes out or the temp shoots up and its gone.. .

Proper snow that sticks around for a few days would be good .... Rant over...

[Essexgooner]

Not that Ive heard of

I really don't like your talk of being reined in, I want to be snowed under! Lol!
