1st!

[CWT2012]

Anyone seen 10cms or more of snow tonight? Am I going to have to file for bankruptcy?

Depends where that area of snow from Eastbourne to Dieppe goes, with all those greens and the length of the front somewhere will get nailed

[Eddy]

Heavy rain in eastbourne still. The whole snow event is 50 miles further east than predicted but not close enough to the sunshine coast!

[Sno' problem]

Sky beginning to turn orange to my SE, first sign of something after watching that misleading blooming radar for hours??

1st!

HAHA

[WestSussexSnow]

reposted from prev thread. Bonkers weather in littlehampton tonight. Snow then rain then snow that started to settle then rain and then snow not settling!

[rubble79]

Thought I'd take a peek at one of the radars. Must be false returns as apart from the odd few flakes nothing is falling and it makes it look like I'm under the same intensity as areas that are getting the heavy stuff!

[jasonuk]

Very sleety rain stuff here still, just peeked out in me dressing gown brrrr!

Looks to me it's dying a death when making landfall so can't see much out of it.

SW London friends, would you care to join me in a snow dance? I'm thinking all-out snow rave

Croydon Council highways division have a MetO radar monitoring system. The staff can keep an eye on developments and can call the MetO's hotline at any time. The top man at the Council decided to send out the gritters earlier based on my Yamkin style intervention

It doesn't appear to be going anywhere. In fact it's fragmenting as it tries to progress northwestward

Yamkin that's awesome! Hope you're getting a bonus $$$

Snowing heavy in Wales. My family are there. Looks like another snow day for them tomorrow,!

True it's not made much progress in the last hour or so, almost like it has stalled as the back edge hasn't even left France

Well I for one don't owe you a penny lol

[abruzzi spur]

Just watching BBC News, the Mendips look amazing!

[Southender]

Eerrm what is the GFS up to....

Almost a repeat of what started this cold spell.

I don't have to pay out my billions to you peasants. Yahoooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ChartViewer]

Moving to the Mendip Hills

Yeah that's the area where I was basing my figures of earlier upon, it's not progressed at this stage how I anticipated

[dubmuffin]

Somerset, Aberdeen and N Ireland on the news - making our snow look a bit feeble

I think not my friend. You predicted the area between Guildford, Basingstoke and Bracknell, not the south coast!
