I like the fact probabilities being shown, they are helpful. But what
are the chances of getting some snow (say in Hampshire) as opposed to
disruptive amounts? I guess what Im asking is that as it is still more
unlikely than it is likely - what is the more likely scenario for
Sunday/Monday?
Eep - hope I made sense!

What is a disruptive amount? A relatively small amount last year brought
the M11 and surrounding areas in Cambs to a standstill...
