Think it might be raining a bit here :(

WhispersOfWickedness · 19/01/2013 10:55

No idea what it's doing here! (Lincs)
DH has grand plans for later involving sledges and photos, I just want to stay in the warm after a week of battling to pre school and back!

duckyfuzz · 19/01/2013 11:00

About 6" here in co Durham, accumulated over the past week, still snowing though!

InMySpareTime · 19/01/2013 11:09

There was hope of mancunian snow in the forecast I looked at this morning, looked again just now and it's all gone! Just cloud as far as the forecasters can seeSad. Kitten, please say it'll snow here soon, and we're not on some snow-forsaken island here!

mankyscotslass · 19/01/2013 11:11

InMySpareTime it does feel like we have been abandoned by the snow fairy, doesn't it? Grin

Maybe next year....

TeWiSavesTheDay · 19/01/2013 11:16

Stupid question time: how do you check local travel advice? We're supposed to be driving into London today.

digerd · 19/01/2013 11:17

South Herts
No more snow yet, but tesco delivery came and took little dog outside and she was fine except kept shivering. So went in < I'd had enough> and small snow clumps were everywhere from her paws/short legs indoors. Wonder if I need to buy her some tiny doggy snow boots to keep her paws warm? Never had that problem with any of my previous small dogs in minus 15 abroad.

fatsatsuma · 19/01/2013 11:32

OYBBK can I ask you a question? What do you make of the likelihood of more snow in the SE tomorrow afternoon (Sunday)? Is it at all likely to extend as far west as N Oxon/Warwickshire? If so, I need to make some contingency plans....

Thanks as ever for being the voice that makes sense of all the other conflicting weather forecasts Grin

magimedi88 · 19/01/2013 11:37

Marking place as would also like to know about SE.

pigsinmud · 19/01/2013 11:38

We're mid surrey and I'm wondering the same as fatsatsuma?! The met office have heavy snow on kent border, but wondering if it will drift a bit....dc hoping it will! We have light snow forecast all day tomorrow.

pepperrabbit · 19/01/2013 12:08

I have to post on this thread as the other one is crashing my laptop!
We've had a kind of not quite snow but really tiny balls of ice almost like mini hail? It looked like rain but was solid. Is that graupel??
Anyway cold here, zero apparently but felt like less.
Just cancelled a trip to North London tonight as really don't fancy an hours drive on icy roads Sad my friend is v disappointed.
Supposed to snow lightly later on and the all day tomorrow Hmm

Dawndonna · 19/01/2013 12:46

light snow on and off on Norfolk/Suffolk borders.

MegGriffin · 19/01/2013 13:03

Yellow warning for south east tomorrow! I hope we get lots.

EastHollyDaleStreet · 19/01/2013 13:03

Please can you reassure me that Monday will be dreadful between cambridge and birmingham and the trains will be disrupted Grin I have a training course to go to in B'ham and really really really don't want to :(

WhispersOfWickedness · 19/01/2013 13:13

Any chance of a forecast for North Lincolnshire over the next day or two? Met office is saying not much and yr.no is saying snow all afternoon tomorrow Hmm

Polgara2 · 19/01/2013 13:28

Cheshire. We had 3-4 inches yesterday, schools closed etc. Keeps trying to snow today but not very successfully thank goodness! Ice on top of the snow more a problem today. Dd2 informs me we will get more tomorrow but I feel this is wishful thinking of a monday off school Grin

ArkadyRose · 19/01/2013 13:28

Snow still lying from yesterday in E17; it carried on snowing overnight but right now it's very fine graupel; I can see from the radar that all the real action is up north over eastern Scotland, though there's some light precipitation going on between Liverpool & Sheffield from the looks of things, and a nice big splodge over the Yorkshire area. Down in the SE we're forecast to get some steady snow throughout Sunday, but I'm thinking it will be fairly light but stead - not quite what we had in places yesterday. It'll probably blanket the east from about 6am tomorrow onwards, though I think up towards the Midlands will see some action later in the morning. Monday is when we'll see much heavier widespread falls, though the SW will be somewhat left out at first until late Tuesday, early Wednesday maybe.

(sits back & waits for OYBBK's verdict) Grin

pumpkinsweetieMasPudding · 19/01/2013 13:32

I'm in kent, it's very cold, but all we have had is a thin layer overnightSad

DamnDeDoubtance · 19/01/2013 13:40

Seems to be warming up a bit next week. East Kent has rain forecast for Tuesday and 3 degrees, practically balmy!

TeWiSavesTheDay · 19/01/2013 13:54

Thank you Arklady!

We decided not to go away this weekend as I think we're set to get some of this eastern/midlands snow tomorrow.

It is actually snowing now very lightly.

CharlieSilver · 19/01/2013 13:54

Still got half a foot here from yday but no more has fallen today - south east btw.

smilingthroughgrittedteeth · 19/01/2013 13:57

I'm kent to and we had a very light dusting yesterday but that's it, I'm supposed to be babysitting tonight in Maidstone and would be handy to know if I should ask the parents to be back earlish if its going to snow as I need to get home the other side of medway and am already dreading driving home in the early hours of the morning

awaywego1 · 19/01/2013 14:01

Annoyed with sheffield. Silly tiny snow..everywhere is just sludgy and horrible now-I want big snow Grin

wewereherefirst · 19/01/2013 14:07

Still NO snow here in my bit of the SW. Nothing at all. Where has snow at the moment? I fear I may need to move home to see some snow Grin

snowflakehellokitty · 19/01/2013 14:10
