It is a fascinating feature, with little in the way of surface wind shift suggesting that the change occurs at higher altitude.


The precipitation also shows some signs of back-building against the NW wind. This element seems to have been overlooked by the latest Met Office precipitation projection maps... but then they don't bring more than a dusting as far west and south as the newly issued MO warnings so they might just be a bit behind on developments.

It's holding together quite well actually. No huge totals but a good few places are getting a few cms of dry snow. Now just reaching the M4 and although I expect it to dissolve and contract a bit, I expect many locations East of Winchester to get a dusting or maybe more . Sweet spot may be N Surrey downs and maybe N Sussex.

Looks to be going slightly West of me here, though the area behind the main band may provide enough PPN to give us a covering here for the morning. Clearly this isn't taking into account any further showers coming this far inland later tonight/early tomorrow.

Just starting here, as you say, not sure how much there will be here, looks like most of it will go east of here...H Wycombe area looks good!

Not sure what the prospects here for North Surrey are - currently in Englefield Green @ 90m asl.


Waiting for the intense precip to swing to a more N-S pathway.

Looking relatively good for here!  Not started yet, but band seems close accordingly to radar, some heavier bursts just to my north.  Nice that it's non-marginal stuff too.... current temperature -1.9c.

Forget the BBC graphics - well out of touch!
I'm thinking our area of snow may even be expanding west more now. Could even give a dusting in Yate of all places.
