Or just desperately short of anything newsworthy to be published.

 

Looking at the radar, it'll be March by the time that precipitation to the north gets here, assuming it doesn't wait for a southwesterly to arrive and move northwards...!

If you're on about that PPN over Worcestershire, I don't think that's even heading for our region.  Looks to be heading towards the Brecons and Cardiff area.

The Midlands snow showers seem to be heading in our direction.

Been tracking this precipitation. Seems to be building and heading Isle of Wight way. Might sink or shrink before it may come this way! May see what it’s like in an hour or so...anybody else is tracking it??? 

WELL, I AM NOW!

The temperature is slowly dropping here now that the precipitation has gone. 0.9°C

Very light and VERY wet snow now falling in Southampton. Temp 0.3C, DP -1.8C, WB -0.5C.

Pretty much what it was like here earlier. Done well here. Seen sleet or snow falling 3 times in one week now! Epic!

[matt111]

Still haven't seen a flake here  

[DanDorsetUK]

So going by the latest runs tonight we have our best chances for falling snow next week. Keeping an eye on Tuesday to begin with. A possible convergence zone pretty close to Dorset.

Uppers look alot better and judging by snow in parts of Southampton this evening there is more likelyhood of snow next week.

Same here Matt. Have barely seen any frost either. We were on the edge of the precip earlier before it slid South but not a flake.. yet. Hopefully something will crop up for us soon.

It did reach here but wasn't that heavy and fell as rain. A big downside to being right on the coast.

Don't tempt me, I bl**dy love Winch. And you get more storms than us!

[matt111]

Why do you think I wasn't keen on moving away from Winchester?

Why did you move? You need 2 homes! That one for summer and this one for winter!

Wasn't my choice. If I had my way there's no way I would've moved close to the coast.
