I'm in Essex at the moment - It's 6C and just started to rain (spitting). Can't believe they reckon it's going to snow, it's way too warm

Not seen The Day After Tomorrow?

For a lot of the country the forecast was for late afternoon/evening today - though last I checked the models were showing it coming down to the wire with temperatures 1-2C too high.

Yeah temp seems far to high here atm, god my sled at the ready though!!

Rain is forecast to start turning to snow after 3pm, ccaused by cold air undercutting the milder moist air

Complete non-event as usual.

Nothing on the Yorkshire Moors. As long as the roads stay clear so I can drive home to the Scottish Borders tomorrow afternoon I'm happy!

Been snowing a bit here in Glasgow.

Well... Bring it on

Love me some snow - Sun all day is forecast tomorrow though, so won't last long for us South of London

Was hoping to go out on the push bike for 35/40 mile or so this weekend. Looking less likely as we get closer to the weekend

It's all over the news down here,

A lady at work has bought her snowshovel, salt and snack bag just in case she gets stuck on the way home.

She lives 4.7ish miles away, she leaves work at 2pm everyday and drives a 4x4.

Blame the news with their "thundersnow" ****e.

I know this.

Everyone appears to believe we are getting 2-3 inches and everything will be closed tomorrow.

People are stupid, I can't help that.

Well it is still quite mild here in Lower Hampshire. Raining as we speak and I very much believe it will continue like this, it would have to be a drastic cold snap to snow. Same **** different year.

pretty much all I'm expecting! I'm more worried by the temp drop tbf as I gotta cycle home from paddington to croydon..

and on 25mm slick tyres it is not going to go well if it's below 0 and "snowing"

Snow has started in MidWales, lets see what we get, but it has been rain up until now.
Temp is showing as 2C outside.

Captain · 12 Jan 2017 at 12:46

Just rain here, thankfully.

ChroniC · 12 Jan 2017 at 12:48

I guess this purple cloud is accurate then if it's snowing in Wales.
