Good 2inches of snow here in Melksham. Most snow I've seen here and I've been here 12 years! Amazing year for me this year.

Snowing Heavily here now in Melksham Fiona

Woohoo - snowing in Melksham, Wilts - varying between V.Light and Light - but definite snow. Fiona

On the close up of the NW Radar the "hole" is an area of sleet but now the front has started moving again what is coming out the other side of it is snow and starting to look like heavy snow. The green patch itself is not moving and hasn't moved for over an hour now. Fiona

I've been watching the Plymouth/Exeter traffic cams - first cam in Exeter shows white out conditions there. Might help you watch how things progress... My link Fiona

Its snowing here - heaviest snow i've seen yet - just won't last very long though i don't think. Nice surprise though. Fiona

Can I just say that the large area of precipitation in the west country was, until around 6am this morning coming over from France and heading in a northerly direction towards wales and the midlands. Even at its worst, there were only a few snowflakes falling and there was no accumulation whatsoever here. Around 6am the wind direction changed and it seems from looking at the other threads that it was the easterly that has been delayed. The precipitation that we were expecting today off the easterly is just forming now as it comes over from Belgium and that general area - if you have the European radar you can see it. Hope this helps understand what happened overnight when you were in your beds and there were only a few of us around on here. Fiona

A Balmy -8C during the night here in Melksham - now at -7C. Fiona

I just posted your figures for Trowbridge at the bottom of page 13. Fiona

This is what it says for Trowbridge right now: Fair: -5 °C Feels Like:-5 °C Barometer:982.05 mb and steady Humidity:91 % Visibility:9.99 km Dewpoint:-6 °C Wind:N 22.53 km/h Sunrise:8:12 AM Sunset:4:15 PM

Just checked for you - you're very much still in the thick of it and directly lined with the snow that is streaming across from the east - so to my untrained eye - i'd expect snow for a while yet - unless it all sinks directly south of course ! Fiona

Good Morning everyone - great to wake up to a snow wonderland - must be at least 3 inches of snow here and still snowing ! Woohooooooooo ! Did Leon and Tim get their wish? Does Bristol finally have snow too? Fiona

According to the NW Radar the wind direction has now changed and is now Northerly - all that stuff above you will be heading in your direction any time now. Fiona

Finally snowing in Melksham - we have a light covering now.

I'm not going to bed until i've seen some snow ! Would hate to find that its been and gone by the morning and I don't know anything about it !
