From this mornings run. On the edge of the snow / graupel that hit Cheltenham last night. Not talking much - maybe 0.4cm - but enough to turn everything white. Also as so cold & powdery actually saw drifting and drifts of up to 3-4cm and a very small snow whirl/tornado (not quite sure what to call that). In some of the pics you can see in the distance where it hasn’t snowed. Prob 1cm somewhere in the middle of the band.

Model output discussion - deep cold inbound?
Blizzard replied to Paul's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
That's really interesting. I grew up in Skegness & in the mid 80s (can't recall which year) I swear that the clouds were full of snow - yet very little was coming down (dry snow - settled in very little drifts on cold hard ground) - yet inland (maybe helped by the Lincolnshire Wolds?) they were getting many inches. Eventually the winds calmed down & it did warm up slightly... we then got buckets of snow. I've often wondered about that as was very frustrating at the time.... -
ECMWF snow prediction between now and a week on Sat.... I sooo want this to include Cornwall and the South Coast & IOW (obv what happens in reality will be completely different - but definitely the chance of an historic cold spell now... maybe 55:45 odds-on). Given the year we've all had - we all deserve some of the white-stuff (for those of us who like it of course!)....

Goes to 90hrs in 1hr increments by the looks of it... depends on what you can get that isn't behind a paywall wxcharts.com gives you it in 3 hr increments for free... which is a bummer when its not working....

My brother lives in the States (Madison, Morris County, NJ) - right in the middle of the current East coast action. 1 foot down... 1 foot + to go. Snowing at a rate of 2-3 inches per hour at the moment. Pic from his back porch... bottom right is a sun lounger - nearly buried. Jealous... This is from weather.com an hour or so ago... wowzers -
Its turned to snow here in the Cotswolds in the last 40 mins or so (212m ASL - about 4 miles south of Cheltenham). Quite odd "icy" snow though - I'd guess it has slightly melted & refrozen on its way down. Nothing settling & not sure if it will. Right on the edge of the main band.... fingers crossed it starts moving south...
