Very light stuff but sun shining throughout 3 minute activity. Looking at
the 10am satellite imagery I see a large wodge of cloud moving NW into
England From France and Belgium -is this going to be snow I wonder?

I think it will be dragged into the mix Lawrence. Interesting 24 hours
ahead.

Most odd - I was expecting the front to come in from the East. It appears
that all those streamers chanelling past Kent have united, turned round and
marched north and are now moving NW towards us. It's supposed to be snow and
will be if the temperature and dew points don't rise more than a couple of
degrees from where they are now so there's a bit of leeway. To be honest S.E
to NW is usually my best direction for snow as it often peps up as it
crosses the estuary.

That high cloud from France seems to be here now coming from the SE as the
satellite imagery showed. Its also killed of the snow flurries. What to make
of it -anyone?

Although I can now see NE cloud movement the 11:30 radar clearly show
precipitation moving towards London from the SE?

Well the orange alert has been removed for my area. Wonder if the
Thames Estuary will make a difference?

Well Mark you can see the 11:30 radar and that line of cloud is definitely
heading your way as well.

I know, why would they change the alert. Seems we are bang on as the
wind veers more easterly too later.
