Had an eye on the ppn in the channel most the day and it appears to making subtle shifts in a north westerly direction. I'm no forecaster so not sure if its due to make to landfall later but would tie in with some forecasts for later. Notice large amounts of Cornwall and west devon are currently looking clear. PPN has been butting against dartmoor from the east but the high ground has taken all the energy out of it.

This is why i find it amusing that some folk insist that the ground must be dry and be frozen for a week before snow arrives for it to stick, if the intensity is there and the DP is low enough snow should stick to most things other than a salt truck

Interesting runs flying around at the moment for the potential for more snow. ICON has just suggested this for Monday. I'd be staggered if this happened mind!!

Into work and sleety ice rain on the face. Lovely. Checked the home weather station just at 0.0c with a DP of -1.5c. Snow has stopped. Flicking back to the weather apps - I'd say MO were wide of the mark, BBC spot on, XCW weather over egged the snow

Just driven to work. Heavy snow at Yelverton traffic was stacked but then a mile south towards Plymouth it all turned to rain Ice potential tonight is huge

Snow falling nicely in the village but higher up there is a covering and with a near easterly gale it's freezing

Snowing well now. Strong breeze making it feel utterly freezing out. Snow is small grains but its still dingy here has the feel of a proper winter day....in autumn. Currently -0.3c Just seen photos of snow on the ground in Yealmpton which is in the south hams

Just been out walking the dog. Sleety with the odd flake now but on the hill here I walked up to 300m asl and snowing up there

Morning all. Temp 0.4c DP -2.4. Light rain

I'm at 2.7c where as met office are suggesting 4c

Hi all. These screenshots show the maximum extent of snow / ppn from the 12z runs Sadly it won't be snowing in cardiff

Woof! One of the highest tors on dartmoor is the place to be for your snow and cold fix!

Ha ha like a moth to a flame I can't keep away. I should know better as the apps continue to play havoc. From a day of light snow to a damp squib

First time saturday night has included the south west moors with a snow risk

Something must be a foot as parts of plymouth have now got light snow projected all day with sea level now having a day of sleet. Can't help but wonder!!!

Took you a while!

The 06z ECM has pepped up the preciptation a bit. The main core of the system still sits in the channel if it encroaches more then things could happen.

I am braced and in position!!!

Yep that is broadly in line with the weather warning areas issued by MO

Yep - weather warning just issued by MO for the south west. Potential 5cm on the moors.

Yellow warning for snow and ice now for the south west just issued Spells of snow may develop over hills, especially parts of Bodmin Moor, Dartmoor, Blackdown Hills and Exmoor during the early hours of Thursday before petering out later in the day. The highest parts of Dartmoor and perhaps Bodmin Moor may see 5-10cm of snow with some drifting in strong easterly winds. Elsewhere, accumulations are likely to be relatively small, perhaps 1-3cm at most, and mainly in areas inland and above 100-200m. In addition to this, icy patches may also develop on untreated surfaces. After the video yesterday saying it was looking unlikely!

GFS still banging the drum for some sort of snow fall in the south west tomorrow. Other models are not so keen.

The latest run from GFS still proclaiming the chance of snow in the south west tomorrow. Other models don't agree so probably a case of looking out the window and see what happens

Cracking video. These deep dives are really interesting. The case for snow on Thursday has somewhat diminished based on that! A low of 1.2c now climbing steadily, currently 3.2c Looking like the really cold weather will effect my locale for just 3 days now

Not withstanding chance of snow for higher ground in the southwest on Thursday
