London & South East Regional Discussion - 24th January 2013, 06z onwards

[southbank]

Maybe give it another 1/2 hr until Sutton has the green / yellow echoes over head to see what falls from the sky

[blackprince]

Just got a low temp alarm on my weather station -19C I think it does not want the coming warm up....lol

[john pike]

gfs been celebrating again tonight

just to note

the last time this happened was about 10 days before our last cold spell

a lot of cold ensembles showing there from the 2nd

i think

[Huck]

Was snow, then sleet, now rain

[Ice Day]

Heaviest snow so far this cold spell. I don't think it's going to last much longer but it's great to see all the same!

[Shutterbug Netty]

Definitely snow here..... and settling too

[Snowman.]

Finally something is falling from the sky and its snow not heavy enough yet but need to give it time.

[Blackie]

Just seen a few small flakes falling. Odd that it has started as snow here, as I am right by the Thames and just a few feet asl. Bet it won't last, though

[Southender]

First few flakes starting to fall in southend

[dubmuffin]

Even the rain has eased off here. I think the chances of us seeing any intense snowfall have dimished considerably now.

[southbank]

Seems those east of Medway towns will see snow whilst those of us west of that line I'm afraid it's rain all night

[Paul Sherman]

Yes defo pure snow here

[Jezzer]

Considering less cold conditions are around the corner I probably will have to resign myself to checking the model thread for the next cold spell.

Suffice to say this last 10 days have been great fun on here. Hope we all managed to enjoy whatever snow we got! See you soon, Jezzer

[throwoff]

Snow in gillingham decent amount falling

[southbank]

Looks like shrimper and Paul s might do ok afterall

[Ice Day]

Shrimper and Paul, hope you get some of what I'm seeing. Huge flakes, high intensity. Must be a 10 on the Murr Scale!?

[Snowman.]

Not setting really I'm unsure of current temp and DP but I know the the DP is well below 0 but temp is somewhere near 1.

[snowblues]

Real mix at the moment,sleety rain,snow and next minute snow burst.Maybe some full snow later with any heavy outbreaks

[Buckster76]

9 on the Murr Scale here in this part of Chelmsford now

[Hammer]

Bit bizarre here, I'd expect either heavy rain or sleet, snow looking at radar but its like literally a shield above.

[Rinse The Raindrops]

Can confirm snow here in Benfleet and I'm sea level

[Buckster76]

wow wasn't expecting this sort of intensity at all

garden almost back white now

[SMU]

I hate greenhithe.

rainhithe.

[Southender]

Temp 1.6c
