Well Bournemouth is meant to get a light showering of snow on thursday. We got a light showering of snow last thursday and it didn't settle. I just got wet walking home.

Not looking forward to this.

I find this weather site is pretty acurate, much more than most of the popular ones:

http://www.net-weather.co.uk/index.cgi

Click the Forcasts link at the top and then try the 7 Day Forecast on the right for your area.

after the ground has been covered in snow for 2 days straight i will then believe its properly snowed... most of the time it might snow for maybe a couple of hours.. and anything that does settle is gone by the following morning.. which is just mean

Look at the GFS runs to the right.

And here is a German site with some cool sat images:

And here: http://www.wetterzentrale.de/pics/bracka.html you can see the low pressure to the north of the UK bringing cold air.

Thats a nice weather site, for those of us who need to know that little bit more than everyone else.

I was woke up by hail stones hitting against the window, but i looks quite nice outside now, so i'll be surprised if i get snow here.

lemonkettaz · 27 Feb 2006 at 13:41

we will see tomorrow

i see there is spose to be 85% chance i get snow here 2morrow but its sunny at mo but sposely getting over cast later so if thats true the forecast may be on target for once

[TW]Fox · 27 Feb 2006 at 13:49

Only forcast for light snow showers luckily, as I may have a 350 mile round trip to undertake on Tuesday/Wednesday.

Gedalia_w · 27 Feb 2006 at 13:56

That fancy website states that there is a 77% chance of snow falling this very second here in London. The sky is overcast but there isnt even the slightest hint of snow

Thats the 23% part

Has to be really cold to snow in London, the temp is kept up by all the building and traffic.
