Absolutely nothing in my area of Stoke, even the dust from last night is gone.
-
Other than the caster sugar dusting earlier there's been nothing in my neck of the woods since. Got my fingers crossed for that giant mass heading south to intensify as currently the Pennines are eating it leaving a snow shadow on the west side.
-
When I looked at some that were falling here earlier (shoved a black t-shirt out the window to 'catch' a few), they were flat hexagonal shaped plates about 2-3mm in size, not spiky at all, quite literally ice glitter.
-
You moved the camera slightly as you took the pic, everything has an upwards smear to it, including the slide + snowman remains in the bottom left.
-
Unfortunately it's the Pennines that do it in for us as normally the cold snowy weather comes from the east, and we are right in the lea of the hills here. It tends to dump up on the moors leaving nothing to fall as it passes over and rebuilds up then starts up again as it gets close to the Welsh border. It's usually a case of EVERYONE getting snow country wide with just our area with barely a sprinkle and wondering what all the fuss is about This makes a refreshing change for once.

Got a good centimetre of dandruff here.

Constant steady and continuous dusting here. Was watching it fall past the house light and noticed it flashing like falling glitter, so wrapped a black t-shirt around my hand and stuck it out the window, low and behold the snow is made of small 2-3mm hexagonal plates rather than the traditional flakes. It's literally showing ice glitter outside

Old 5p flakes at first now it's coming down as dust... EDIT : and now it's stopped. crazy weather is crazy
-
It is SNOWING!!!!!!! ❄?❄☃❄
-
Got down to -5.6c with dp at -5.7c (considering we were at 5c yesterday that's a drop of 10c in 12 hours, not bad ) , still currently sitting at -1.5 with dp at -1.6 freezing mist still lingering and plants still coated in hoar frost. Looks very pretty
-
Temp charts look like a cliff face, had high of about 5c around 3 o'clock'ish', down to -1.5c (dp -2c) now and dropping fast.
-
It's got up to about 5C today, considering it's been at 0 or in the minuses for the last week, I'd say that it's quite warm in comparison.
-
Woke up to dandruff covering, but melted fast, still got quite a bit of snow from the 6 or so inches that fell previously, though that's melting quick now. It's warm enough here that there's knats dancing over the top of the garden hedge.
-
Doubt there'll be more today, had to walk up top of Norton to go Co-op, and it just doesn't feel anywhere near as cold that it's been the last week. Even the small tiny breeze that there is just doesn't have that icy 'bite' to it. Dunno if it's because I've gotten used to the cold but it feels positively mild out there.
-
Been watching the Winking Man Webcam off and on, been blizzarding down at time's! Just a pity nothing is making it over the moor's. Screenshot of what it's currently like up there
-
I can confirm the rain ?
-
Just had about 3 mins worth of spotting rain, but that's all so far today. Though looking at the radar now, the precip has finally started pushing past the moors and making it past Leek. Also temps are just under 3C with dp's at 1.5, so no chance for anything frozen atm.
-
Been keeping an eye on the radar and windows all day, nothing interesting happening here though All the fun stuff is fully dumping up on the moor's
-
*Keeps an eye on the new big blob that's formed over to the North East.
-
I think the radar may be slightly broken, Snows beginning to pick up here into larger visible flakes, but it's just showing a big empty area of nothing over us and that's with the 10 min lag taken into account. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Closest visible thing on the radar that's heading our way is about 30/40 mins away. EDIT: And as I typed this it's gone back to dust again
-
Snowing here in my area of Stoke, not showing anything on radar though. It is the fine powdery stuff though, so maybe too small particle size for the radar to pick up, still coming down quite fast though despite that.
-
Round 2 incoming for S-o-T Starting to lightly snow again
-
Giant flakes have now stopped Got tiny dust like stuff coming down now. But looks like another nice blob or precip behind it, (as long as it makes it over the hills).
-
10 mins later o_O Good 1cm+ already!
-
I'm already playing my favourite 'game' of, How high up can I see the individual flakes. Considering the size, pretty damn far!
