It's snowing

Pfff not impressed here in Romford.

It started out well at 8pm and a nice dusting of snow was placed down, the foundations of some good fun were set.

But then at about 9:30 drizzle has killed it all! The ground is now way too wet for it to settle now.

I won't be waking up to a winter wonderland that's for sure!

Booo!

Got a good 4 inches in my garden, will grab some pics tomorrow if its still going strong over night.

For anyone living in East of London, Kent and Medway, the Met Office has just issued a Flash Warning valid between 2200 and 0100 tonight of very heavy snowfall for 3 hours with major disruption expected. Status has been upgraded from 'Be Prepared', to 'Take Action'.

Their warnings are normally overkill, but sounds cool anyway!

Oh my god think my trousers just filled up *must not panic* Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :eek:

Four inches? You can practically bury your nads in that now Musty.

4 inches is not exactly LOADS!

Good for a start though

Lord, my very last day of work until 2010 and I have to get to Guildford and back tomorrow. I might just leave 5am tomorrow morning to avoid all the confused drivers and sleep in my car until 8am. Must be the Cosmic Joker testing my patience again.

A bit of snow here in SW London but not much, cycling to work will be a pain tomorrow if it does snow more overnight and it stays!

Wish I had 4 inches.

It snowed for about 5minutes in Milton Keynes about 4pm. Pretty pathetic

2StepSteve · 17 Dec 2009 at 23:07

I want 4 inches!

... of snow!

It makes me laugh at hour the forecast has suddenly changed for my area, for the last 12 hours it has been stating between 3am-6am it will be heavy snow (Metcheck.com) yet an hour ago it changed to snow showers!

I am gutted!

No snow here in Reading, but Claudia Winkleman is keeping me happy

Sp00n · 17 Dec 2009 at 23:09

Currently about 1" of snow, laying very nicely and still going strong

ordinaryjoe · 17 Dec 2009 at 23:10

Hmmm I have about 3-4 inches of snow and the forecast says that it is light snow at the moment and heavy snow from 12-6am. I don't think I will be going to school tomorrow

garden is covered >.<

It's like a proper blizzard over here near Lewes (Sussex), i can't see more than 10 metres out of my window and everything is white...gotta be at least 6 inches plus, i stuck my head out the window for a few seconds and have at least 2 inches on my face!!

This thread needs a rule, don't say you have snow without first saying roughly what county you are in.

Here in Kent it's mega.

Slow shutter

Fast shutter

Pictures taken seconds apart..., its smashing on the windows wellard and lights are flickering.
