[SuffolkDan]

Just had a 3 minute lightish snow shower but it stuck when it landed.

[SMU]

Looking at the current streamer ( the only one )

Entry point is felixstowe heading WSW crossing over the QE2

Anyone on that trajectory looks to see a few more flurries

Sky clear here currently which is fine - clearing the wet ground.

Temp will be dropping-

[Ruby000]

Snowing at Wanstead Flats apparently! It's only 19m asl. 

[chionomaniac]

Snowing in East Grinstead. Proper flakes 'n all!

[SE Blizzards]

Snowing again here, settling on cars, roofs etc

They are blowing around in the wind, but not too many of them

They must be avoiding you Steve.....

[PLANET THANET]

We had snow about 3pm for a short while but nothing since 

[snowking]

Heavy driving snow here at the moment, covering everything but looking at the radar this might be the last shower of this current spell here as the alignment is taking it just to our South now

Can I just reiterate that Gatwick Airport are calling staff in for snow clearing duties tonight

 

Dont despair just yet, the potential is there

Not that I give these much credence given recent performance but this is the 'nowcast', so it doesn't add up. Unless it's that small window at 7pm and they're being ultra-cautious (likely).

I can just see myself being between these two showers. Hopefully they'll merge...

[final dest]

Moire snow in Colchester.

What about those slightly more East Steve or is that is for tonight?

Sounds like hail falling now

It must be very patchy as there has been reports of heavy snow pretty much all around me, but we've had nothing.

It has been quite amazing in our area, was better earlier this afternoon here, had a right proper snowfall for 5mins.

Heavy snow here settling everywhere, slowing up now though

[john mac]

Nowt here at the moment!!

[Coopsy]

That wind is definitely pushing the showers onto the essex and suffolk coast right now cutting of showers to kent and looks like showers are dying in the north sea. Click to watch last hour or so (shows one hour ahead as Dutch time)
