Just had a quick flurry here. Looking at the 18hour TAF it shows a dusting tonight.

Anyone else had any??

Nothing at Heathrow, except an expanse of bland greyness. Bloody miserable it is!

You will have... (Well, a 30% chance of anyway)

Just been looking at the forecast whilst waiting to get some aerial survey work done in that area and there'll be a dusting later - along with cloud low enough to make the pigeons take the tube.

got some flakes of snow in my part of london too!

I was regaling the ladies in the office about how I got snowed in while staying with a friend in northumberland over new year, they have asked for proof as they think i'm lying

having said that they have between them never been outside london except to benidorm/costa del chav/equivalent so their realm of experience is narrow to say the least

I think it's a NOTAM for Heathrow Airport actually.
