Snowing here. Very small flakes at the moment 

Checking the radar, it looks like you could do OK in a bit. 

[karlos1983]

I’m presuming @*Stormforce~beka* Is either lost in a snow drift of fainted at the sight or snow in wichester 

but still not on board

Still getting dangled here with frequent rain showers.

[fromey]

Scratch that radar has gone from this to this in 20 mins

[matt111]

Just need those 2 heavier bits to join up and move south and we're in business @karlos1983. Easy right...

I know lol every time I look at the radar (5 min intervals) I take a deep breathe in 

[Gibby]

Been snowing for an hour or so. Mostly light but a little more than I expected so should be grateful for that

[karlos1983]

It’s going the right direction @matt111 but will it make it before breaking up ?

Hopefully. Wouldn't bet against it though.

Also now passing just to my east.

Think I’ve figured it out... is it the drop in zonal winds (through the floor) to signify the SSW?

What's Zonal winds? Boring warm SWesterlies?

[ThundersnowDays]

Yep completely missed the heavy snow just little grains to be honest. 

[jy]

So a check in the SE thread and its snowing....its snowing quite a lot in this region....which makes me think of the Stealers Wheel song......snow to the left of me...snowing to my right...here I am stuck in the middle with....bone dry actually lol

[Man With Beard]

And light snow here in Portsmouth too

I think it’s the winds high up in the troposphere, they circle the pole

[matt111]

How much closer can it get while still missing me?

What a grumpy sod lol, the ssw is happening a lot sooner than that and the models are already showing some very tasty charts out in fi, but unlike usually where the good charts tend to stay out in the far reaches of fi, due to the ssw & other global factors in play that some very knowledgeable members have been writing about in the mod thread, those great looking charts should start counting down to the reliable time frame.

Oh how many times have we heard this rubbish this winter LOL. Oh yes get the cold in. Oh wait no... no snow for you again ... Sigh!

[Climate_Eyes]

Light snow for a short while now, its settling, so light that I can count the individual flakes on my garden furniture

[Nights King]

OK my sizzle is finished.. Eyes down for Friday.. 

 

[Isleofwightsnowgal74]
