I could do one for tommorow if you like although it won't be as interesting as today would have been! Its my fault for getting sucked into UIA!

Still prefer the old website myself, but that is for another time and place! 

Yep, we've has just over an hour of snow / sleet that hasn't appeared down here yet.

Amber may be modified shortly, removing W Country but extending east to SE areas. The small wave low now running along the Cherbourg Pennisula coast will enhance ppn and push it into Sussex/Kent from 9pm. Larger totals likely here than previously modelled.
You can see this process happening in the radar loop.

Thoughts on London Neil?

yes. Not a perfect spread but now have on and off snow for just over 24 hours

again, clearly not scientific but is very broadly representative of how it seems to be evolving. 

Neil, you called it earlier with the runner low. Some bright echos now blowing up mid-channel due south of the Sussex coast. Looks to be about 75/90 minutes off the coast at the current rate of movement. Moving north but also seems to be feeding brighter echos back north west along the front towards Hants and perhaps even Dorset. Winds here around steady 20mph from ESE and pressure dropping rapidly at 987hpa and a temp of 0.1c/-1dp just 12 miles or so from the coast. 

An interesting evening ahead!

Although there is light snow here in south Dorset I don't have high hopes for disruptive snow. There is though a dusting now.

But looking way down to the south west there seem to be some interesting looking thundery showers appearing over the Brittany area that might come this way. 

OT, but I would agree with you. The new one is just a bit too busy or something. No doubt, it cost a fortune to design.

Temperature down to 2.3c now with a bit of sleet in the heavier bursts of rain. We might just get something out of this, though I'm surprised that there doesn't seem to be any widespread snow elsewhere over here. 

It should be pretty decent from around 10pm but recent radar frames appear to show the band shrinking somewhat which is surprising. I think it’s being wrung dry a bit from the lower dewpoints being pulled in from France. Even at such a short range you can really never tell what’s going to happen a few hours ahead.

As said earlier the pivoting seems to have started earlier which is bad news for those on the eastern side of the area affected. As it turns it now looks like breaking up over Eastern Kent and South Essex, East London and moving more  NW. i would have thought it is still positioning itself well for Surrey, Sussex and West Kent. Certainly not certain about this though, just an observation watching the radar this evening.

Looks pretty good for these parts to me

Meto auto updated and heavy snow from midnight for 6 hours and then light snow until 4pm.

Massive upgrade for the Chilterns - sceptical!

Met, Beeb & others offering hous of heavy here but actually, after a pathetic 10 minutes blowy shower, nothing's happened. Now, I'd like to say the little low risked at on the Beeb forecast has formed and messed up the small detail, or the timing is just a bit out, but I, not a frequent cynic, am starting to wonder if actually, they've got a clue.

Here's a clue: skies are clearing. 

Wish I lived in Chicago.

Now that is real weather!

yes looking like a failed model and reality forecast, a damp night in my part of Hampshire after an hour of wet sleet and snow. Roads wet otherwise a non event...still due to the Mass panic sent out by the met office to so many organisations , the M3 and M27 were quiet?...I wonder how much business was lost! 

Agree. And with schools closed tomorrow from what looks at the moment out of the window little more than a decent hoar frost.

I suppose higher up things will be different but but it's a very weak squib here at 60m above sea level.

Maybe things will go bang in the night with a lightning show as they mention thundery showers coming up from the Biscay area.
