blackjack i think its time you made your way home from work before you get stuck!!

likewise andy - know your higher up than us but got heavy snow now covering roads and A470.

Take a photo Shaun!

pontypridd just north of cardiff, upper boat, A470. mountains are white but nothing for us! i know though that andymusic and wales (on here) are nearabouts graig hill which is only a 5 min rive from here and they have snow. obviously its all down to the above sea level and height!

there is certainly a huge dumping of snow going on in mid wales and just north of cardiff. and it appears the front has stalled with no movement. for latest radar - red - snow blue - rain http://www.raintoday.co.uk/

blackjack glad at least you had some warning from us! those cams are useful in situations like this! a465 looking like a skating rink now!! http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/southeast/travel/trafficcams/camera2416.shtml

blackjack its not looking too good up there. look at cams http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/southeast/travel/trafficcams/camera2474.shtml

snowing taffs well, now in upper boat A470. so this is moving up north, just keeping an eye of traffic cams. guess it will be at pontypridd A470 in a few minutes.

andymusic - we have no covering here at Upper Boat, just wintry mix with sleet and big flakes, but not covering! lets hope next few hours has something to offer.

wales still snowing with you? nothing here at upper boat.

certainly is! i totally agree, english just getting jealous now! LOL obviously english intelligence, dont even know what a sheep is!!! LOL

well i hope you guys like will be eagerly lamp watching again in the early hours! wales from rct - keep forum posted about snowfall as it will hit you before me if anything!

Come on god, bring it on!!! We are ready for it!!!

GFS on Meteogroup is showing snow at least from 3am until 3pm Tuesday (from Tuesday) Correct me if I am wrong why is this bad news!? http://www.meteogroup.co.uk/uk/home/weather/latest_model_forecasts/gfs_popup/archiv/NSea/ww/2009122712/nothumb/on/45/ch/e7b6fabcfb.html http://www.meteogroup.co.uk/uk/home/weather/latest_model_forecasts/gfs_popup/archiv/NSea/ww/2009122712/nothumb/on/48/ch/c37421ada4.html

wales sorry for being so dumb, can you epxlain what you mean by this? Are the GFS models on Meteogroup the same ones you referring to?

morning all, hope you all had a good christmas! not been around after our let down with the snow just before christmas, but thought i would check in, given the latest interesting situation. i dont know how reliable you guys rate meteogroups charts, but it certainly is showing interesting reading from mon/tues 0000z right until thursday into friday. would be good to hear from the more experienced guys here what their thoughts are on the charts. only attaching one link and let you read through the forecast onwards from 0000z. http://www.meteogroup.co.uk/uk/home/weather/latest_model_forecasts/gfs_popup/archiv/NSea/pcp/2009122706/nothumb/on/42/ch/1a66d81445.html

ah well BBc dereks forecast not looking good for the snow lovers!! Thereagain they are always right arent they! NOT!

i bet graig hill and pencoedcae hill are fun today! no chance of getting up or down that. therefore not suprised at all.

just caught this on traffic cams wales before it was turned off!

we had a heavy shower completely out of blue as was not following things on here at about 23:00, then stopped then started again about 1am - heave snow, main road outside very treacheraous and only now snow ploughs came. a470 looks ok now after ploughts been down, but temps sill hovering around minus 2 - 0 degrees, now i am off to bed, seriously! got to make london heathrow tomorrow, somehow!

looking good here everyone for once - wales/andymusic in particular still snowing a470 completely blocked at moment - cant watch it any more - had my early xmas pressie!!! LOL Good night, god bless btw temps here between 0 and minus 1 at moment just for you folks catching up early in morning!

morning all, morning wales! well what i can say very dissappointed apart from the very slight sleet later last night/early this morning. Went to bed at 1am and not a sausage! Not going to get my hopes up!

same here Wales!! he he he

looks like that band of snow coming south from dowlais, brynmawr etc has just hit abercynon A470. http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/southeast/travel/trafficcams/camera8185.shtml
