Snow forecast?

[Dr Interceptor]

Snow forecast all day in here Farnborough, ramping up to 70% by 9pm.

Will make getting there fun tomorrow!

I don’t mind a bit of a walk, so is there somewhere I can park on a road on Sunday to save any issues with the car parks? I have an X5 so I should be ok, although it’s on very wide tyres.

might chuck the push bike in the back, and dump van on nearest road without a no parking cone.. will await feed back after todays event from attendees

Blizzard and settling snow in Farnham, real shame as we travelled down from North Yorkshire last night. Any updates from brave souls would be appreciated as I haven't written off tomorrow just yet !

[CS Garth]

Is anyone there today who can post an update - I'm deciding whether to leave from the Cotswolds shortly

[Simes205]

Unless they are replaying old footage on the live stream there isn’t any snow there.
Unlike here in Surrey.

No snow here at the moment, just a few occasional flakes. Cars running fine on track.

Bitterly cold out the back of the circuit as expected. Hats, scarves, faces covered etc!

Also, walking boots or wellies if you're treking around the circuit, it's seriously muddy.

I left the Revival ok last year in my X3 with tyres almost on the wear bars, where all around me were powerful RWD cars getting stuck. I'm taking the X3 tomorrow (with fresh tyres) which I'm sure will be fine.

Nothing here in middle England. Looking like a complete anticlimax. The usual completely blow things out of proportion by the media.

It's looking pretty bleak at Goodwood at the moment.... on the TV.

Watching the live stream on youtube, there appears to be heavy snow falling but not settling on the ground. Meanwhile, some brave souls are driving F5000 cars through the blizzard.

watching the live feed now looks 'interesting'... the F5000 out in the snow, but only able to potter round and even then one has had a spin. Personally I would find that pretty boring to watch. Hopefully it either snows properly so they can reschedule the event. Or clears up. This halfway house right now is the worse scenario! Not so bad to stop the action, but bad enough to ruin the spectacle. Very tough for the organisers!

Spoke too soon !

It's stopped snowing down at Goodwood, but the track is very slippery and it's still cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey.

They were never going to reschedule, logistical nightmare. I for one was glad they got out on track, sounded wonderful even at relatively low speeds.

I would say still come down but wrap up warm, am staying down here so will post a weather update first thing in the morning

07:06am and cars stuck in the car park already. I just made it into a space but will be amazed if I get out with no issues. Incredibly boggy.

Drove straight in at 07:15 and out again at about 18:35 - no problem. Mercedes E class estate driven with sympathy.

[No ideas for a name]

In at 07:30 this morning, out at 19:30. RWD Jag XF.... No issues at all. Except I am a bit cold. Forecast is colder tomorrow.

[andyj007]

ground will be frozen in the morning.. should be fine... although its chucking it down with snow here in colchester and has been for last hour... if goodwood gets this it will be game over i think as with sub zero temps its not going to clear from track quickly..

[tonymor]

Very boggy Saturday evening tractors dragging out alround so be VERY prepared.
