O.K, here are the depths from the match-ups in the first half of the draw, totals are in cms.

N.M.R. (No measurement registered), come on people put 4 layers on and get out there and have a measure up.

Chart Viewer, suggested that if a competitor doesnt register a depth at this half way stage, they should forfeit the tie!

I'm tempted but thats a bit harsh but if they DONT REGISTER A DEPTH BY 9 a.m MONDAY, (IF NO MORE SNOW IS FALLING IN THE REGION,I SUPPOSE I COULD EXTEND THAT TO NOON), THEY WILL FORFEIT THE TIE AND THEIR OPPONENT WILL MOVE INTO THE NEXT ROUND. (I'm not shouting really).

A comment on those scores above, I'd wished I'd had a bet the overs in total snow depth JEZZER v.LONDON SNOW.

To think they were matched randomly from Paul S's list, spooky eh.

I will post the scores on the doors in the 2nd half of the draw, in a wee while, too much to take in all at once.

If I've missed anybody's total let me know.

Cheers,

Tom

I had 0.75cm in Little Wakering Tom

[yamkin]

So, Bexley, Bromley, Sidcup, Bromley, Crayford, Orpington and Swanley should fair better on tomorrow's event?

And Croydon

[abruzzi spur]

AS, what's your snow depth?

It was 8cm on Friday evening - my youngest and his class at RP junior school went out to measure, with their class teacher, so I take that as reliable! BTW the school stayed open all day and that is what they normally do - they love the snow and ice and regularly send the children out into Priory Park with sledges!

Probable that a smidgeon has been added today but not enough to measure

AS

[Paul Sherman]

Or Southend v Gillingham

Lol to be fair when we played them on NYD They went ahead in 2 minutes and that could have been their 3rd goal!

Crazyness!

[jright35]

What about the depth of the snow?

2-4cm she's only 8cm different than some of the other predictions! Has she not seen the charts lol we should get more than that

[Southender]

Or Southend v Gillingham

Oi. I will have you know the Thames Estuary Derby is a massive affair.

how very dare you !

[Paul Sherman]

What do you reckon we are looking at tomorrow Paul ?

I would be upset if we did not get 4" (10cm) to be honest, we are quite high up, I know I am 76 mtres above sea level and you must have 25 more on me up there on the Mount.

So yeah 10cm would be nice!

[WillinGlossop]

Latest bbc heaviest snow east of meridian, ie london 5-8cm here, 2-4cm west of london....

[Heretic]

I don't understand...from the radar it doesn't even look like it's heading for the UK at all? Is it expected to be blown west?

[A Wintry Mix]

There has been a small pink blob sitting in the channel all day,

i think in the morning it will look alot bigger!

[ChartViewer]

Iceberg 10ft high just spotted at Greenwich...pack ice on the Thames...polar landscape right now in SE and for 5 weeks......London Paris travel cancelled........ice 3 ft thick......Medway frozen 2ft thick .....blizzards for 60 hours non stop in SE.

Gfs 18z is brilliant for tomorrow and all next week, but it has completely lost the plot by t156 its trying to undercut a 920 low, if we get to t156 as shown on the gfs going forward will either be the mother of all blizzards or massive floods

I was wrong it does both. It will never verify thou, have to laugh at the gfs after t96 the last couple of weeks, but its precip charts upto t24 have been fairly accurate, so tomorrow looking for whole region.

If that ends up in Germany I think I'm gonna get forced fed a sledge tomorrow by an angry 2 year old.

My German friend has skyped me about the snow where she lives - she is enjoying keeping her hubby employed clearing the driveway

Gillingham my 2nd team mate...my nephew plays for them...Charlie Lee...sorry....now wheres that German Low

[abruzzi spur]

Did a sledge run down the "chalk path" today on Reigate/Colley Hill - must be one of the best runs in Surrey - deffo worth checking out if you are in the area. Hoping it gets a top-up tomorrow morning.

Big respect for that one! Surrey equivalent of the Cresta Run.
