  1. Been some fairly heavy snow this afternoon which turned to sleet then back to rain.Ever so often it turns back to snow again. The hills around Swindon are white due to the higher altitude allowing the snow to settle, i've taken the kids up there to have a look about as they 'pine' for snow.Some good quality snow about 3" deep.Seems wierd as the hills are only about 2 miles from where we live.
  2. Dull and overcast +3c, light winds, spots of rain.
  3. Has slight sleet/snow around 10.30 here in Swindon.Drizzle all day after that.

  6. Amazing snowy pics guys! I've been showing my kids who are desperate for snow and can't believe them! Here in Swindon looking out the window looks dry and clear, however step outside and it's between 0- and -1c with no frost at all. I'm watching the mild front pushing in from the west and wondering if as it hits this cold air whether any snow is forming?............it's our only chance!

  22. I was at Castle Combe race circuit Nr Chippenham Wilts (Nr J17 M4) weather was fairly warm and sunny until 12.00pm when the rain band arrived :unsure: .You could see the people that had not looked at the weather forecast, they were just wearing T-shirts :unsure: .I had by waterproof and brolly at the ready, which was just as well as it chucked it down! After 3 hours most people had had enough and were leaving, most soaked to the skin.All in all a good day.
