Light snow.. and I mean light John in Gloucester (Quedgeley - low down) -
Just want to say - a very nice friendly forum here ! Certainly lots of battleground uncertainty (particularly Monday onwards) but if we knew exactly when and where it was going to snow.. heck - we'd have nothing to talk about ! Tomorrow may surprise for some but whatever happens its gonna be a roller coaster for quite a while ! We wouldn't want it any other way eh ? Can someone provide a link to Ian Ferguson's latest forecast and latest fax chart ? Cheers ! John in Gloucester (Quedgeley)

and snowing here too (only rain last nite ? Where were you around 11.30 ? Lovely dump of the stuff here) Cheers ! John in Quedgeley, Gloucester -
Its on its way guys - may only be the back edge but south east wales and south also I would think should be seeing some snow soon. Had a 45 minute deluge here in Gloucester about an hour ago - the wet roads were white in 2 mins ! huge flakes in amongst the ice ! extraordinary (note meto red blob) Good luck there ! Cheers !

Lynxus, on 09 February 2012 - 20:22 , said: k. Well im signing off. The radar isnt anything like the charts and going by the radar, Its gonna be clear and dry here soon... Not sure what happened lol.. laters http://uksnowmap.com/ oh ye of little faith.... basically it is heading our way in an uncertain fashion lol .. and it could linger if it stalls.... apart from the 'snow/rain' area being further east than predictedit has a south west movement and may even spread more west.. meto said earlier could linger in south east wales so that suggests it'll pivot northwest even ? We shall see... John (ever the optimist) in Quedgeley, Gloucester p.s. I'm siding with Andy B's viewpoint on the westward movement... -

According to Severntales site... temp 2.1°C dewpoint -7.3°C (Wet Bulb :-0.9°C ) Could those more knowledgeable interpret that regarding what is required for snow to fall ? Incidentally everything in the north east is set to swing this way and met o still has south east wales as a potential risk.. appears to pivot back over there... Cheers ! John in Gloucester (Quedgeley) -- light rain at mo - lamp post watch later ! :-) -

latest from http://www.severntales.co.uk/wdl5.html) Temp now down to 2.7c... May just hold off lampost duty for a couple more hours though.. John in Quedgeley, Gloucester -
As well as anticipating Friday... has anyone got any thoughts on this development out to the West. This started out as a batch of showers before hitting Ireland and now has a vivid circulation to it. Will its momentum be reduced as it moves in land ? If not - snow on its northern edge ? John in Quedgeley, Gloucester (where we even had wet snow today at 50 mtrs asl ..

The drizzle here suddenly intensified and now we have... soggy snow coming down thickly. Radar shows it wont last but what a winter eh ? The Forest of Dean and Cotswolds will get its usual covering no doubt... John in Quedgeley, Gloucester. -

Surprised no other posts here unless I live in the only south west snow zone ! Just up and must have been snowing steadily for a while as it is settling on the grass and cars but not on pavements or roads. We must be right on the edge between rain and snow I reckon - and I live low down here. John in Quedgeley, Gloucester
