[Buzzit]

Hello mate,

Are you London or Middlesex there?

Regards,

Tom

Definitely Middlesex Tom

[Kent Blizzard]

If it doesnt slow could be over us by 9am

[Buzzit]

If it doesnt slow could be over us by 9am

i really do think it will - which i also think will be better for us in the long run

[Kent Blizzard]

I can imagine people dropping there kids off to school then half later getting a call for them to go and collect.

Night all, see you in the morning for a day of fun.

[Buzzit]

Yes night All - snow dreams !

[Sno' problem]

Definitely looking like it will be here slightly ahead of time, that lingering ppn in the central region is certainly beginning to move East ahead of the main front, but the wind has started to pick up here, which may slow it down more as it nears us.

[Sno' problem]

Night KB and Buzzit!

( Buzzit, you should start seeing a few flakes soon by the look of the 2:40 radar...just beginning to reach the M25)

[Tom Montalbano]

Any chance of getting involved?

Not a chance of me winning due to my location, but a thundersnow event could see me take the prize!!!

OK mate, here you go.

West/Central London (SNO'PROBLEM) v. Anerley (L) (TOMSE20).

Not much difference in altitude but would fancy my chances if I can squeeze out a Thames streamer, otherwise pretty close I would say,

Regards,

Tom.

Yes thanks for the note SnoP

I am continuing to so like these sat pictures !

[Coopsy]

Wow the radar looks awesome...a huge wall of snow slowly moving in

Many thanks, will polish up my marble table outside in readiness.

Temp still 0.6 since about 2200 hrs, if anyone is awake, any idea when temps should be dropping?

[Sno' problem]

It certainly does look good! No point in me sitting here and watching it slowly move towards me, may as well get some shuteye, otherwise I would only crash just as it gets here in all it's vigour.

Back in a few hours, sweet dreams everyone, and bring it on Tom!

[Laurence Hill]

Raynes Park

Temp dropping, now 0.4

[Coopsy]

It's kinda stalling right now though

[Laurence Hill]

Yeah, does seem to be moving very slowly.

[Radiating Dendrite]

This was expected though. It is not forecast to hit our region for another seven hours.

That mass of loveliness may eventually get stuck............over our houses hopefully

[john pike]

Ukmo 00z

Plus ukmo 00z look nice

Sorry should be gfs and ukmo

[Laurence Hill]

Good morning JP, question whilst it's quiet

My iPad app is Meteogroup. Only shows light snow for today, is this because they base their forecast on the GFS?

[jimbo36]

intensity and longevity not looking that impressive. 5-7 cms at best over SE later today

[Laurence Hill]

Raynes Park

Temp 0.3

[john mac]

Mate, it's not meant to be heavy all the way only light to moderate but every flake will stick so decent accumulations. Post a chart if u can to back up your thoughts. Cheers

[Jezzer]

Morning all!

On my way to BBC towers ready for snow watch

Even a few teeny tiny flakes fluttering in the air as I left the house.

It smells amazing, so crisp! Bring on the snow

[BucksSnow]

guys i live in high wycombe what are my chances ? and i have been told the front has stalled

[Jayces]

Hmmmm, woke up stupid o'clock.

Morning gang, wherre's the snow?

Like UKMO, another dumping Sun night t go along with today's that is slowly but surely making it's way over :-)
