London & South East Regional Discussion 21st January 2013, 12z onwards

[Great Plum]

Cloudy in Reigate... No precipitation... 1.9 -0.5 dew... Need to get the air temp down!

[Jimmyh]

The GFS precipitation charts are generally useless. A few cm's for southern parts of region, MAYBE a covering at most elsewhere though I'd be surprised if I see anything.

Here comes matt always the downer

As night sets in and it gets colder then the dew points will drop? I think my prediction will be pretty close tbh

Massive snowfall for areas between J7-12 of M25 and J3-9 of the M3 10-15m either side of those boundaries IMHO

CWT, I think I'm going to employ you to follow me around and cheer me up whenever I feel a bit down!

[throwoff]

Coming down in East Grinstead. Heavy light flakes.

[Heretic]

Looks like it'll hit London just in time for the rush hour.

[Ruislipredbee]

Heavy snow reported at Gatwick!

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Come on white out I can feel it!

[Great Plum]

I've had a report of snow in Crawley...

Make up your mind - it's either heavy or it's light!

Cloudy and 1.9c here

Sorry but, there is nothing to suggest our region will see several inches of snow widely tonight. I say what I see not what I want to see. I'm happy to be wrong, given that I love snow, but I can't see it happening.

Snow again in Tunbridge Wells...just when it was starting to melt.

[polarlow2]

Just went to check the lamp post outside my house, and the bloody thing is broken! How am I supposed to feed my obsession now?! I really had hoped to get stuff done today, but at the slightest mention of snow within 100 miles of my door I downed tools and have been glued to this forum.

Must get out more.

Heavy as in lots of flakes, light as in small flakes!

[Great Plum]

Ok, light snow here now!

[Fatboypirate]

Still rain in Eastbourne, although now lighter than it was, just been outside and there is no snow mixed with the rain either!

[10 Days Away]

Coming down in East Grinstead. Heavy light flakes.

Lol ..... Made me laugh !! Sorry

I know... I'm walking up (if this doesn't say cockroft when referring to a bbc forecaster, I have maturity issues) Cockshot hill!

You are probably too east, I would put the heavy falls at Croydon westwards going about as far west as Bracknell and about as far north as Luton

[tight isobar]

Aaaahhhh, could end up eating my words here.....

[Marie]

And would that be in blizzard conditions?!

Those areas will probably see a covering. Harrow will probably get plastered again though

Light sleet/snow mix here in Fairlight but my word, the wind is blowing a hooley
