I've crept out of bed like a child at Christmas to check on the snow situ...

Can confirm snowing in Hampshire at 3am!

Crap photos due to the dark obvs.

What about you?

South Hampshire , no snow just rain .

Okunevo · 08/03/2023 06:11

Luckily it's only settled on the top of the car so far, road is clear!

Ifailed · 08/03/2023 06:15

Snow in Kent, traffic on main roads/motorways crawling along.

None here either in north North Yorkshire. It’s due to start tomorrow here and snow for 36 hours. They do tend to overegg the forecast though since they missed a big snowstorm two years ago so I’m always a bit 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Just over the border in Dorset - nothing outside my windows

Prettypaisleyslippers · 08/03/2023 06:25

We have a power cut too! So snidest when battery on laptop runs out

We’re off sledging before school 😍😍 just waiting for oldest DS to wake up! Come on!!! We live across the road from the local sledge hill 😍

MangoBiscuit · 08/03/2023 06:29

We've had snow in Southampton too, there's maybe half a centimeter out there. Some of the decking is even white!

Snow in Romsey, Hants too. But it hasn't stayed on the roads.
I'm assuming DD's college will be open, but it is up a steep hill so checking twitter just in case.

SnowAndIceLobelia · 08/03/2023 06:35

None where I am sadly (and I even changed my name back to an old one in hope!)

cocksstrideintheevening · 08/03/2023 06:38

Yep snow here in se London too, I was meant to be going to the city today but given how shit southeastern are at the best of times I'm knocking that on the head.

My kids likely will get a snow day as their site is multi level linked little hills / bridges / steps which are always deemed too dangerous once any more than a dusting of snow

Medjuel · 08/03/2023 06:38

Snow here in Crawley west Sussex, very pretty.

GotABeatForYouMama · 08/03/2023 06:41

Snow here on the Mendips. I don't know what the main roads are like because I can't get out of the village. Luckily I have 12 hours overtime to cover the day off it looks like I'm going to have to take. FWIW, I hate snow, always have.

MarshaBradyo · 08/03/2023 06:44

dd just ran up so excited it’s snowing!

I didn’t expect so much. Amazing

Wantanytoastwiththat · 08/03/2023 06:45

Snow here. Kent. Looks pretty but can't get out of my village. Looks like a snow day at home for me.

Starsnores · 08/03/2023 06:46

Nothing yet in Warwickshire, though it looks like it could be imminent. I'm hoping it'll be minimal as we are meant to be going to Alton towers on Saturday! I hate the stuff, always have.

Tornado70 · 08/03/2023 06:48

About 1.5 inches here in North Wiltshire. It’s a snowy birthday for me!

RampantIvy · 08/03/2023 06:48

Nothing here in South Yorkshire I'm glad to say.

Not in my part of Kent! Just heavy rain.

JimHensonWasAGenius · 08/03/2023 06:49

Not a flake on The Cheshire Plain.

rainyalan · 08/03/2023 06:49

None in Leeds but it's on the way!

vickibee · 08/03/2023 06:50

We live on the edge of the Pennines and are normally get loads dumped here but none so far. I think it’s forecast from Thursday though

mogtheexcellent · 08/03/2023 06:50

Over 4 inches in rural west berkshire. I work in oxford so its a WFH day today.

No idea re schools but farmer hubby says more to come this afternoon. Dreading the school run as it involves steep hills and small lanes and I only have a small fiat punto. Fingers crossed for a snow day.

WonderingWanda · 08/03/2023 06:50

Just drizzle in the South West as usual 🙁

InglouriousBasterd · 08/03/2023 06:50

Happy birthday @Tornado70 !

Good covering in outer London!
