[Jan_Bromley]

Steve, heavy snow here, should be with you soon

[ryan93]

It is in Mile Oak !! both then roads and pavements...just goes to show what an extra 75 Meters in elevation can do !

GFS 0z Model is going for the Channel Low to edge further North from this afternoon

GFS, 6z pain steakinly brings the LPS à touch further north.although at present Its by no way far enough north for anything of note.apart from perhaps extreme south/south east...

[Coast]

Cranking up nicely in Benny Hill now, is anybody in Eastbourne who can tell me how it's doing down there, I might need to make a break for home soon?!!

[Don]

Was snowing when I left for work leaving a dusting all the way to Guildford. However, there's nothing in Weybridge.

[Mike Storm]

Quite heavy stuff here billzard like

as mentioned earlier, kingston appears to be just too far north/west to be in the firing line....

[VillagePlank]

Here's the current radar,

Here's the model's prediction of where we should, just about, be.

Looks to me as if GooFuS is the closest, re Northern extent, so far. Roll on the 6z.

Currently very boring in Epping, just a few lonely flakes floating around, should have chucked a sickie and stayed in Bexley!

[Tom Quintavalle]

Light snow falling in Anerley SE20, blowing horizontally, accompanied by a mean sounding wind.

Nothing settling yet though.

Regards,

Tom.

Yes its snowing at gatwick mod snow blowing about in a very strong wind

[Reefseeker]

have a feeling that kingston, surbiton etc will be too far north and west to catch anything of note...

Agreed, it's really windy here which feels pretty raw, but no snow. Off to Sutton in a while, but can't imagine it will be that different there. Son at school in Uxbridge where I'm sure there will also be nothing as it's even more too far north and west. They're off on a school trip to Ruislip Woods - I've given him a scarf and gloves and told him to wrap up!

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Are the winds meant to veer more east today? There are some wicked shower trains firing..

[Jimmyh]

True blizzard style

[EML Network]

Probably about the same :-)

Sun is trying to break out between heavy snow showers. 1-2cm snow settled.
