The GFS feed to "Netweather" is currently predicting a non-zero chance
of snow on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday evenings in Southampton.

Sunday evening looks distinctly marginal - unless the air is going to be
very dry the predicted air temperature is just too high. Monday seems
not cold enough and the precipitation too light for the white flaky
stuff to reach the ground.

But with a nice stiff northerly predicted, Tuesday evening could be a
different matter. Again, the elements shown hardly suggest the south of
England is going to be buried under "Snowmaggedon", but enough of the
white flaky stuff for the Ashurst Observatory to record a day with snow
seen to fall is on the cards. However, I am not expecting to see a "day
with snow lying" on Wednesday unless the weather really beefs it up from
what is currently forecast.

But I am only about 20m above sea level...
