Pardon?

Cissbury Ring is local to both [MENTION=3734]Giraffe[/MENTION] and myself, and a fine place to walk dogs.

Cute. Is that an Albion collar?

Unfortunately not. It's a lighter shade of blue. When I bought it the shop was out of "Albion blue" coloured collars so this was the closest I could get. I do have an Albion blue collar for him in a bigger size, but it's still too big. He needs to bulk up a bit before I'll be able to use it.

I bet you went to look for that beanie hat - didn't you?

I have no idea what you're talking about. I did up my hat game for the walk though and wore one that has ear flaps.

Only light but it has now been snowing in Horsham for the past 10 mins.

First few flakes drifting down in Findon. 0.125 on the Flumpage Scale.

Any chance of it drifing as far east as Seaford? It already seems to have shifted quite a bit in the last couple of hours. [emoji120]

Between 0 and 0.1

Can see it making as far as Brighton weather it’s actually a decent load I’d be surprised. Maybe wrong but there is a decent line of snow along the normal route you would associate thunderstorms for around brighton and East Sussex. Big factor wind is blowing the other way I suppose but it’s defo drifting further east than originally suggested

Precipitation 9pm-midnight looks interesting on this.

Probably not, we were a tougher breed in those days.

My dad built an igloo outside of Kingswood Flats (just off John Street) that year!

Coming down hard but with small flakes in Southampton. The cycle home from the sickhouse might not as much fun as the journey in, especially as the wind was behind me.

The vast majority of us went to local schools where we could walk. Now with choice, schoolchildren travel miles to another area.
As I went to HCGS, I am aware that some pupils came in from Hassocks, Hurstpierpoint etc.

Wind obviously pushing it back across. Now looks like Worthing will be lucky to get any.

 

[dibsy]

Quite heavy in Chichester, it's been at it for the last hour or so.

 

[Bozza]

Findon: small wispy flakes. 0.75

I lived in Woodingdean at this time and the side of our house was one big snowdrift that almost reached the roof of the semi.

Apart from a couple of hours snow tuesday morning this has been a crushing disappointment, they forecast some tomorrow afternoon but I don't believe it anymore and it will be gone by saturday anyway

We most certainly were (Don't remember much as I was born that year), bunch of lightweights these days, I've been saying to my customers this week, I cant ever remember having a day off from school for snow.

I take your point, they are still namby pamby these days.

 

[martin tyler]

Even if it snows it will be a disappointment compared to the south west. I predict another frustrating CM or 2 tonight

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

On the flumpage scale, where would you put small flakes that are coming down very heavily and settling to what looks like it could be deepish snow?
