My parents saw a funnel cloud during an intense downpour late this afternoon, they live in Yate and it was SE of them. I went home just 30mins before and skies were clear missed all the action and hence no pictures.

Same here, Bristol channel shredding any showers before they get here.
Well disappointed tbh here, was hoping for some storms to chase but dry here apart from am passing shower and in the sunshine feeling nice. May even get the lawn mower out in a minute. Didn’t think (hope I wouldn’t have to ) I’d be able to cut the lawn today.

After yesterday’s total rain event of 23mm here the river Frome has responded more than I thought on my walk earlier with ‘Ollie’

Really nice weather today tbh ideal for a garden tidy and a dog walk. Maxed at 12.3c
just watched the film ‘Day after tomorrow’ again got me wondering what the reaction would be like on our forum if such a thing happened.
I guess the Mad thread would be looking for a breakdown at Day 10 on the GFS models-

It was still bloody cold here in the wind at 5am this morning. Temperatures now on the up and staying up for the foreseeable. I have a feeling though that winter is not quite done with us. I'm going for a very cold and snowy spell at the very end of Feb start of March.
I'm certainly no expert, just an optimist with a hunch. In what has been a relatively cold but relatively snowless winter, one last cold blast and I'll be happy to see spring.
I can confirm that John, let the puppy out at 4am and was surprised by just how cold it was in the wind. Luckily the pup did his business very swiftly and I was able to return to my warm bed.
I just noticed there is still green echoes on the radar up the road from us on the Cotswolds right now-

Is it ok if I put this down as a snow day in my records and attach the radar image they will never know looking back in 50yrs time

Been a beautiful day to be driving around north wilts today (for my job) & was able to make a quick stop off at Bowden Hill, Lacock for lunch. You must be able to see 50+ miles W/SW from up there. I did wonder if any of you were getting any little flurries from these lovelies
Had our heaviest snow flurry of the week today calneee
Still technically a ‘Flurry’ though but lots of flakes. Baby steps and all that

Our Snizzle on the radar has gone from looking solid to quite fragmented in just 10 mins
I give up

Meanwhile heaviest snow flurry of the present cold spell has left my patio furniture positively ’speckled’

Those showers to the east are making it over slowly but my God it's torturous going. My optimism is fizzling out as quick as they do!
Certainly very cold out there John for all the cop action that’s going on right now in Yate

Very light snow.
I’m up in bed but forgot to leave the patio light on relying on your reports Kumquat. Either that or shine a light over to Frampton mate for me.

Temp has risen to 4.1C and DP is 3.3C so hope that drops quickly before the ppn hits. Also hope the ppn stays intact. Fingers crossed, cider flowing, sausage baps on hold for now.
Put the sausage baps on Kumquat I’ll bring the daddies sauce over (other sauces are commercially available)

Just walked the puppy and it’s definitely got a chill to the air now and a very slight breeze stirring.

I hope you don't mind me posting this mood booster on this miserable day.
Subject to ridiculous change.
Frampton or Yate doesn’t matter with that chart MS if it ever came to pass. Sledding order of the day there at St John’s church slopes Old Sodbury

Woke up to a light snow shower. Too light for my camera to pick up.
Thanks for the observation midnight snow, my weather station is at Yate too (parents house) and I’m down the road in Frampton Cotterell. So that’s a red line day for me then with snow falling

No one with any temps from last night?
I am currently at -1.6C (11:00) with mist and about 200m visibility.
Minimum overnight -5.2C, just after 05:00. Coldest of the year so far. This is from Central Solihull.
Lower temps must have been recorded in more rural districts?
MIA
MIA my overnight low N/E of Bristol was -3.0c and currently still -2.3c and extensive freezing fog.

Bit of moderate snow here
Ignore pepper pig in the background
That’s where Peppa Pig lives ? Should be ok for snow later as it always looks really hilly on Peppa pig
