South West & Central Southern England Regional Discussion 11/03/13 13z---->

[Mapantz]

thanks for that, will start using that now as a radar

Am i missing something with it?

It isn't reflecting all the precip in the supposed coverage area across parts of southern England, have a look ..

It's good for the channel islands but not very good for here.

[Man With Beard]

You have around "2 of lying snow?

I have 3cm-4cm lying on my shed roof at the moment, but there has been slight thawing too (and I think it started as rain in the night) so I'd have thought 5mm of precipitation at the very least.

[A.J]

absolutely bone dry here, although pretty much as expected.....A few light snow showers to the north and north east of here, but they're fizzling out before they reach here

[wightwootton]

Snow has pepped uphere now, grey skies closing in.

We were having snow from the norh east this morning , definitely coming in from the south.

That's not bad but it doesn't dismiss the fact that the NAE shifted it all south and projected the best chances of snow in the South East, the experts wanted to bin the NAE and quite a few of us did, it turned out to be closer than the GFS, NMM and ECM.

[Frosty_wsm]

Snow shower just started here.

[Chul]

Pepped up a bit here too although fairly small flakes and just blowing around madly in the wind

[sandhurst-smoker]

Blimey o'reilly that radar has pepped up over the last couple of hours. Widespread showers UK wide away from the main precipitation band which should drift slowly Eastwards as the day wears on.

HI gototlove u think we shall see anything in berkshire this evenig or are we on the fine line ?

[Mapantz]

Every daffodil in my garden has been flattened by this weather ..

[Buriedundersnow]

Massive snowfall here in Guernsey. Inland has got 8-9 inches. Cars stranded everywhere just taken an hour to drive 4 miles. Proper blizzard.

[Joe Levy]

The cloud is now thickening, having had bright sunshine this morning, and there are increasing numbers of snow grains on the breeze.

EDIT: there are now some bigger flakes as well occasionally

Snow shower just started here.

Looks like the first of many showers I should see over the next few hours going by the radar to the north east.

When we are in the midst of our Summer heat with expectations of overnight Thunderstorm, All this cold weather will be distant memory

[SNOW CRYSTAL]

A few flakes here swirling around in the bitter wind :0)

My thoughts exactly :-)

[Blizzardof82]

Current temp 1.6c, wind 15mph SSE, humidity 48% and pressure 1008. We were close to something special on the mainland but alas it wasn't to be, nice to see the channel islands getting in on the action though.

[ARTDEMOLE]

0.1ºC at present.Sun is out between the clouds.

Grasscutters are clearing lawns with their ride on machines...

[Frosty_wsm]

Snowing again now.

That's great news, but I'm far more surprised that anyone even tried to drive in Guernsey today! Hope you get a load more too!

[Bumpkin]

Temp been hovering around 1c. Small flakes blowing around on the wind on and off for the last couple of hours. Humidity is only 51% so the air is very dry.

[coffee lover]

Can anyone help with this ?

[ARTDEMOLE]

All Change,,,Grass Cutters packed up snow flurrie happening now...

[MR EXTREMES]

i think weve had are lot now here on the southcoast its stopped now maybe were get some more later but looks like dying out now.

[SunnySouthCoast]

Most of the snow 'dusting' from earlier has nearly all gone here, all off the roofs & most off the cars on the street too, just as shame that despite a decent amount of snowfall we have very little to show for it. Though it is still snowing lightly with a temperature of 0.5C which is a drop of 0.6C in around an hour! Dew point is -0.5C.
