Clouds. Between you and the sun. Thick Clouds.

Ah, I thought it was either that of the End of Times, good to have it clarified.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Graupel! THat'll be it, thank you! Never heard of it!

Any idea why it's neary pitch black and sunset isn't for half an hour?!

Re transport, does that include here as I've got to drive to Manchester in the morning?

I thought it was some sort of breakfast cereal

I can't rule out the End of Times, there have been indicators recently. It's not the most likely cause though.

Broad daylight again now, very odd.

I reckon you just had a nap.

Did you close your eyes maybe?

It's not enough to make much difference to transport etc

This displays a commendable, and largely unwarranted, placing of trust in the robustness of Southern trains.

Curently wet snow in Swindon

My wife has just got back from Northern Italy and she said she’d had a good eight inches whilst over there. I looked on the weather maps and thought it looked clear. She must have slipped in the snow though because she can hardly walk at the moment.

It is a BONE CHILLING 8c here in mid february in Lancing. Will we get this through this ?

Attended family funeral in East Riding of Yorkshire this morning, left around 12.30 and we got hail, sleet and then persistent snow all the way down to Oxford.

We went (eventually) past three fairly serious accidents on the M1, M40 and A34 - latter involved upturned and burnt out car so likely fatalities I would have thought.

Over 8 hours drive and I was shitting myself on the South Yorks/Notts/Derby section of the M1, as bad as I have ever driven through.

EDIT: Apparently serious injuries but no fatalities in the A34 accident, they were very lucky.

 

[Taybha]

Just up the road from me , could it be a isolated snow storm ? nope just sea froth , still got 55mph winds here with more to come over the weekend 85mph !

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

The game is up. 14 c by Sunday and no cold anywhere on the horizon so it looks like over the 3 winter months the coldest max daytime temperature we will have had was 6C 43F then a few at 7C 45F but mainly in double figures. I am sure there has never been a winter on record with 0 cold days or below average temperature days over the whole period. Will be around 2.5C above average. Extraordinary

Couple of inches of snow here this morning. Turning to slush now though.

Nice. I see there is a "chance" of some white stuff further South towards the end of tomorrow and then again on Sunday morning?

Possibly - maybe even a flake or 2 overnight Monday into Tuesday. Both are very marginal, and reliant on lows tracking close the south of England.

As 'sods law' would dictate - early March looks quite good for cold synoptics. Just when it's meant to be warming up.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

I have a feeling we will see a slight dusting tonight.

What do you reckon??

It will depend on where you are and your altitude.

There's a little feature coming our way this evening and into the night, bringing more organised showers. At the same time the airmass will be getting gradually colder. I'd say for coastal areas it will be rain to start, and we may see some snow before it ends. Inland and on the hills it may start as sleet or even snow and stay as snow.

So, the downs, especially those in Surrey / N Hants will be best placed, and the Sussex / Kent downs later. On the coast / lower down it will be marginal - but many will probably see some snow falling from 11pm onwards, but I don't expect much to settle away from the hill tops.
