Not the best quality as I have a grumpy clingy 16 month old! Fun 5 minutes watching soft hail/graupel from the lounge window.

Nothing so far here. Any showers have gone either side. Doesn't seem cold enough for snow either at 02.5C.
Dew points are probably low enough though. Kind of like those April days we've had the last 2 Springs.
A few flurries in Warminster of mixed wet snow/sleet/graupel.
Radar suggests something really heavy between Bristol and Bath.
-
Looking at the various apps and charts we have snow chances on 4 consecutive days. When did that last happen!?!?
Friday and Saturday ; flurries/showers
Sunday and Monday ; frontal precipitation
-
I can't believe people get so hung up on precipitation timing forecasts so far in advance. Things will never turn out like that!
As an example, today was forecast last night to be dry yet in Warminster it's been drizzly most of the day.
-
Just like this week last year we have seen the ground cool and harden in the November 28th to December 1st period only to be followed by something milder.
Here's hoping it doesn't become like last December, I don't think it will.

A few flurries showing on the radar to the W/NW of here, lots of cloud drifting S on the bitter wind so it's possible some of us could see something.

I never understand all the wrist slashing and toy throwing in the model threads at this time of year! It's as if all some people want is a complete Narnia snow fest!
Surely a good starting point is lowering temperatures (both air and ground) under HIGH pressure and seeing as it's still Autumn anything more wintry is a 2010 style bonus!
Wonderful day today, give me this throughout winter and I'll be happy! And there's a definite chill to the wind.

Lowest 2.2c. at 03:50 - 04:40. Now 5.3c. Sunny with some frost in the shade. Scattered cloud with sunshine
Why were we inland several degrees above freezing and those on the coastal areas below freezing? I was questioning my sensor until your info!
-
Decent sleet/hail shower passed over half an hour ago, isolated affair though as clear blue sky has followed on.

Interesting...
1am this morning off last points west but ill be surprised if mountains in wales dont get good old Henry on them...
Tonight's potential is more of an organised front/trough moving more West-East so the Welsh mountains shouldn't affect it as much as they will tomorrow's showers.

Amazing Cloud formation over Reading this morn. Is there a name for these types? Like true sea waves
Kelvin Helmholtz clouds, you'll have to research for further info. Beautiful photos!

I know this app changes as frequently as the weather (lol) but check out tonight's forecast!
Met Office app shows heavy rain for the same time.

Very windy and balmy , 13.8c and overcast.

What a glorious day to waste at Cribbs!!!!!!!
Do any of the Bristol area people know where the smoke plume to the North of the city comes from? It was billowing straight up this morning and convecting into cumulus! Easily viewable driving West on the M4 then M5 and spoiling a lovely view!
-
Yesterday is best resigned to the forgettable weather drawer!
However a stunning start today with pretty pattern frost and a colourful sunrise enjoyed from the breakfast table, hazy sun and 2.9c now after 1.1c minimum.
-
Apologies for the lack of reports from Warminster this week, illness struck last weekend and we've all suffered!
Thankfully it's a glorious day to feel better on, off for a walk to the park later.
-
The Cold Front pepped up as it moved over between 08.00 - 09.00 so it rained quite heavily for a while along with blustery winds.
However by 09.30 we had clear sky, sunshine and a dropping temperature.
A lovely day from then on and washing was quick to dry too.
-
Clear, sunny and frosty in Westbury where I am out working, rather slippery on some surfaces though!
-
Meanwhile ahead of the front it's been a sunshine and showers morning, breezy and 11.9c .
-
Wonderful day from start to finish, introduced my boy to his first early morning frosty walk too!
Reading between the lines of Ian's Points West forecast there seems potential for quite a squall line tomorrow with winds rapidly switching from SW to NW followed by a quick cool down too.
-
Stunning day, mostly sunny, scattered Cumulus, distant TCu, fresh NW wind, 9.7c after a slight frost first thing.
-
21mm in my gauge and now a lovely day although cooler than first thing at 10.2c .
-
We were woken by torrential rain at about 05.30 and it's still raining now, not ventured out to my gauge yet, 12.3c .

In Poole at the moment, getting the Barnet cut and arguing over whether to go for a KFC or not?!
Foggy until 11am back home. Nice and sunny here.
Could do with some sun here or the dreaded tumble dryer usage will begin! It's brightened twice (about 08.30 and 12.30) then gone gloomy again.
