  1. -0.6C and 8-9cm on my wheelie bin, just walked home from work and theres foot deep drifts on the paths. Started snowing lightly about 1.30am

    and got heavy at 3am, only fine snow but its put a lot down.Workmates just come in from Elsecar near Barnsley, he said theres a light covering

    at home but when he hit Thurgoland a couple of miles from here it got bad and the roads were covered.

    Its fine powdery snow thats drifting in the wind, just looked on METO for Penistone and it has heavy snow all the way through until tomorrow, if

    it stays like this we'll be snowed in.

  2. If anyone is looking for an Android Radar, Rainy Days has a dedicated Radar, it uses Google maps so map detail is good and it has a 15min update time and

    shows the last few hours in animation. It actually updated to 19:00 at 19:10 so its no different to a good desktop Radar, it has plenty of settings for speed and

    quality so it can be run on older phones and the best thing is its free.

  3. Does anyone know a good Radar app for Android? Preferably with a 15min update time, i use WeatherPro, its ok with a 25-30min update time

    but the map is poor, it only shows Manchester so its difficult to accurately gauge locations. I have Accuweather too but i'm not keen on it and

    1hour updates are poor.

    A dedicated Radar would be good, i dont mind if its free or paid either, a good Radar is worth paying for. i'm working tonight so a good Radar

    would be handy.

  4. Meto have my location as heavy snow from 03:00 right through to Saturday evening o.0 .. Hope it pulls off

    Just been looking myself, it shows a constant run of snow, mostly heavy with a few light spells from midnight through to 6am Sunday shok.gif

    It looks nice on screen, especially when the METO are throwing around 20-40cm stats in their warnings but i'm not getting suckered

    into that, if we get a few inch that will be Epic, i'm not expecting more than that but i hope to be proven wrong.

  5. Can't see how people can be saying white over! Not true.

    HaHa, i'm not pulling your leg mate, it really is white over and its pretty heavy snow now too. Everything's covered apart from the road which is quite

    busy so it's not getting chance, the fields, paths and cars are covered. Surprising really as its been raining for the last couple of days and was raining all day

    until it turned to snow.

    It is actually covering the road where the cars are parked as well.
