[Misc] The Award-winning official "More Snow Tomorrow?" Thread [2024-25 Season]

Graupel

Otherwise known as "soft hail". Snow with a bit of a crust around the around. From memory it means it started to melt on the way down but then refroze. Had a little of that here earlier.

Actually, scratch that ... getting some graupel now. Level 1, quite fine.

 

[Fignon's Ponytail]

Small flakes falling in Peacehaven....coming down hard & laying on the ground quite quickly too.

 

[WATFORD zero]

Snowing in north BN1, but it all smacks a bit of Swansea's goal last Saturday. Too little, too late and not going to have any real effect

 

[Box of Frogs]

Freezing rain/sleet type stuff on and off in Haywards Heath

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

Stopped here in Uckfield, but based on the radar it appears that was just the first course. Enough to put icing sugar on top of the cars in the end. Main course is still on its way over from France. There's a long narrow band of heavier stuff approaching from the south coast that looks like it's western end will land somewhere near Brighton, and eastern end out Hastings way. As I typed, radar updated and decided it's mixed snow/rain rather than snow.

Hailsham has got this now, very fine level 1 ish

I'm working in London ignoring the 'come home before 3pm' warnings from Southern Rail. Not sure how wise this is.

Now snow BN3.
Won't last long enough to have much impact though.
It's later that I'm looking forward to.

 

[Weststander]

-2C and a blizzard in Withdean. Just driven in Shoreham and the same there. Snow depths building nicely.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

level 1 small here now. The beginning of the end?

 

[Peter Grummit]

Level 3 small and lying between Lewes and Kingston now.

 

[TSB]

Radar suggest another stream headed towards Brighton within the hour.

But you have that all encompassing override to any advice.

'I'm a woman so therefor I know best'

 

[Notters]

Level 3 medium in Newhaven now.

 

[pearl]

You'll be fine, assuming later means afternoon rather than evening.
This is only a half-hour shower.

I wouldn't leave it too late to get back, just in case.

thank you. I'm heading home at 4.30, snowing in Lewes now and settling

Eastbourne getting heavier now. Level 3 medium

 

[The Gem]

Graupel

I take a bow to your level of superiority on the subject Sir.

 

[Bozza]

Text from school to pick kids up now. Is it going to get much worse?

 

[Boys 9d]

South East Lancing - tiny flakes settling.
