Weather experts - are you thinking snow in the coming week ?

[DulwichFox]

The Snow predicted for London tomorrow is now expected to be further South/East so Kent will get the brunt of it.

Still very unpredictable so who really knows ??

Used to get really excited about it snowing when I was a kid. from 5 till 55.. lol but not so keen these days.

well, it couldn't look less like snowing if it tried.

I was at home yesterday and it was lovely looking at the weather - alternating sunshine and snow showers, the light, and the birds (I think we have some migratory large blackbirds and at the moment the wood pigeon is adept to knocking suet pellets out of the feeder).

Got bless our four distinct seasons and don't let Chris Evans (knobhead climate change sceptic) or Brussels take them away.

Actually there is a fair chance of a Maunder Minimum in a few years (2030) so it might appear colder but that doesn't mean climate change (warming) isn't happening - it's just masked until 2050 or so.

According to the BBC / Met Office, 64% chance of snow at midday

Lot's of snow down in Brighton

Left as quickly as it arrived.

As I predicted, any snow is more likely at the end of the working week, and will herald milder weather.

The snow is now settling on pavements and the road surface. Can no longer see Canary Wharf, it's been whited out. And as soon as it's started its stopped again with a bit of bluish cloudy sky replacing the previous white sky. The snow just can't make up its mind if it wants to fall or continue to tease us with intermittent showers.

[Angelina]

It must have come from the East as we're in Westminster and it's just passed - followed by dbboy's predicted blue/ cloudy sky

[uncleglen]

yes- March Winds, April Showers- but frozen!

I tend to Treat Weather Forecasting in the same way as Fortune Telling. With a Pinch of Salt.

Please don't disrespect a seriously important profession doing a very essential job. It's about probability rather than an exact science, with zillions of different variables. It's one of the main reasons that super computers were developed. Spend some time reading instead of poorly informed comments. www.metoffice.gov.uk/news/in-depth/supercomputers

I just as uppity when people criticise medical professionals, scientist and other experts who have to base their advice on natural systems based on their best interpretation of the evidence "oh they said sugar is bad, then it was fat, then it was salt and now it is alcohol". Trump being one of the main criminals in all of this antiscience rubbish.

In fact this may be pistols as dawn.....

I've always found the jet stream forecasts accurate- this time is no exception

Maybe you should out your window now. It's snowing hard.

For goodness sake... Judging by some of the posts on this forum you'd have thought we'd been struck by a tsunami

It's not the snow it's our infrastructure - god forbid climate change makes this regular. My weather app shows snow later this week but BBC says it might miss London.

Sky showed Croatia - 6 foot of snow :)

Snowing hard? If you can find an inch in what?s settled good luck.

My initial prediction was spot on. Yes we would get snow, no it wouldn?t be much- and it WILL get milder at the end of the week.

Get a grip East Dulwich, the world has not come to an end!

Nope, little sign of warmth Lou

[Louisa]

Not the end of the week yet Seabag. Watch this space, it will be double digits by Monday. Mark my words!

Louisa.

[JohnL]

It's going to warm up (and probably rain a bit) during Saturday.

Friday is set to be snowy if you believe the apps :)

[JohnL]

Oh yes - I've been watching https://www.accuweather.com/en/gb/peckham-rye/se15-5/weather-forecast/323476 recently.

It says "snow starting in 7 minutes" "break in snow in 12 minutes" and the only time it got it right I got caught out in it as I was taking it with a pinch of salt.
