As much as i'm fed up with the rain, this 'winter' has been heaps better than last year, no snow for me down in the valley, but i've had at least 3 frosts this year!!!! and we're so lucky in wales to have mountains close which will at some point during winter have the white stuff This weekend was awesome on the tops, no wind for once and feet of power, very busy too which was nice to see.

Yep and the black mountain nr Brynamman

sleet here at mo

god this threads been quite...its goes from snow watch to heat wave in a couple of posts lol........

Nice thread...... sunrise at Angkor Wat ..... a few years ago now https://forum.netweather.tv/gallery/image/21038-102-0233-img/

though I share this...taken by a mate.....not me beacons feb 2015 https://forum.netweather.tv/gallery/image/20976-10502143-10152974577475027-6287740245423654249-n/

Took me daughter out on sleigh today....no snow at my house........ but 20mins up the road the western beacons are stunning...still plenty of frozen snow above 350m yet only a couple of miles away you would never know......suggest a drive up to the source of the river Tawe for any depressed snow starved in here...will try and post some pics later

Morning...anyone know how's the beacons looking....thinking of dragging me kids round on their sleigh...is there any covering at storey arms etc?? ta ps had quite a few snow showers last night..... none on the ground now though

people a lot more knowledgeable than me are unsure...so that clears that up

According to Jo "It is a polar low, they aren't that rare, it is like a trough line but gets its own circulation, caught in the flow south. Met OFfice have said it is a polar low for those who are waiting on Ian F's opinion. MO model moves it across NI and then Wales with heavy PPN" have seen the debate since....but still it popped up at short notice and must have a consequence for the future weather.....looks like my location is just going to have wind/rain:(......but those a bit further inland might be in for a treat .......I live in hope though

Unexpected Polar low tracking down wales tonight?? shows how unpredictable weather is!!

9.1 C now feeling nice in the sun...going out to do some work in garden.....hoping for a snow shower at least, later

4.4 here and dropping expect to be dry later though

low dropping down from Iceland...track will firm up....prediction good for now but could well change

A lot of snow south wales mon night.......5 days off though and all that

something to cheer you lot up in the south east - mon/tue from the mod thread

6.7C here pressure falling and so the temps...not often that happens around here

I wouldn't be too dishearten,..... mon looks potentially very good for wales....although still five days away we should get a much clearer pic in the next day of too......in the mean time I wouldn't be surprised if almost anywhere saw a dusting.....BBC and meto O will not commit until within two days or so...... they don't want to end with all the flak the mayor of NY has saw recently......the Express, the star, etc...well we all going to die obviously

lunch time BBC wales weather forecast looks interesting for Thursday - snow in the south west perhaps
