Snowing in SE4

 

[Southstandfaithful]

Has been snowing heavy in W1H but now just very lightly. Appeared to be quite a bit of snow north of Gatwick to about Croydon from the train window.

Good snow in haywards Heath. It's not going to last is it?

Shame.

Not enough to cause any travel disruption I would have thought. It just looks nice. Doesn't seem to be setting but I can only see rooftops from my desk.

Where is Papa when you need him!?

If it helps, I'm in Buggers Hill and its not settling at all and easing off here

Am being a wimp today.
Am supposed to go to Eastbourne from Westdene for an appointment this morning.
However, snow started earlier and laying on grass, car etc. but not road or pavement yet.
As my car is a rear wheel automatic not taking it out. In the last nightmare snow bomb I had my wife's car and burnt the clutch out up Clayton Hill. She won't let me take it today as it cost £750 to get the clutch sorted.

Nice big clumps coming down in Worthing now, but not settling.

Is there a sadder sight than snow falling but not settling?

Stop start flumping in Eastbourne, no chance of laying as it is already very wet.

In the context of weather - no.

In the wider context - definitely yes.

Still snowing heavily in Bromley, and there seems to be a streamer developing off the Thames.

Still flumping in Worthing, but absolutely no settlement. Damn this wet stuff.

The precipitation intensity is pretty high over Worthing at the mo - if only it was drier to start with / colder it would be settling readily.

Sleet here in south Lancing. Probably 65% snow.

 

[shaolinpunk]

I assume it's not settling in Brighton?

 

[jakarta]

Its certainly not settling in Sullington, the ground is very wet and air temperature is slightly too warm (just under +2 degrees).

I'm not too fussed as I need to get to Eastleigh this afternoon and seeing as the average British Driver cannot cope with anything more than a dusting of snow without sliding all over the place I'm quite happy to see wet roads......

Quite frustrating. Nice to see the big flumpy stuff falling though even though it didn't settle.

So is that our snow excitement done for the week/forseeable future?

Possibly some more tomorrow morning.

Pretty much. Will remain cold until Wednesday but we welcome back wet and windy conditions from Thursday. I feel this was Winters last hurrah before Autumn rolls back in!
