Traffic Cams should start turning interesting soon...
-
Much of S.Wales under oranges now precip wise on NW Extra
-
Seems to be getting heavier to me, flakes getting MUCH bigger.
-
There we are even snow in Cardiff. Just hope this precip stays around if it moves through quickly or disappears it won't give us much if it hangs around all night looking at another few inches.
-
nothing up ystrad mynach / hengoed area
Wont be long
Only if it would stall now! chucking it down
-
Really intensifying now. Valleys are gonna get a dump.
-
Appears to be settling here as far as I can tell.
-
Just started snowing heavy. Really suddenly too.
-
Some oranges on the radar now towards Ponty but still dry here. #confused.com
-
It's intensifying as it gets past the M4 latest frame shows some yellows now over S.Wales apparently over me too but its dry here atm.
-
How can the precipiation be forcast to be with us and be heaviest between 6 am and 12pm when the bands look to clear our are in a couple of hours tops?? if anyone has an answer please let me know
Met Office did say the forecast was very uncertain so timings, locations and amounts could change. The NAE changed several times through the day.
-
Now NW Extra saying snow south of the M4 in North Cardiff. Still nothing falling from the sky here bar the 1 flake I saw
-
According to Netweather extra the precip is turning to snow along the M4. Similar to earlier today when we had a mad heavy snow shower, rain a mile away from J33 down the Ely slip road and then soon as I got on the M4 and headed for J34 it turned in to really heavy snow. Mayb the M4 is the boundary? Saying that I recon most will get snow tonight if its heavy enough precip - evaporative cooling and all that.
-
Very true that this could shape out to be similar to the NAE from this morning/afternoon with heavy precip over Wales giving us a nice few inches. Just following the radar now tho.
Well if it is sleet where I am, usually it is snow at the top end of Barry. So I would say could well be snow for you.
I recon it could turn to snow for you too when the heavy stuff arrives. If it started as sleet then wouldn't take much to turn
Just seen a large snow flake just the 1 while peeking out the window its a start !
-
NW Extra just updated for 1:05 has a tiny pink (snow) square over my location
-
Yep, can confirm sleet here in Barry
Well if it sleet in Barry Im hopeful it'll be snow here. Constantly looking outside haha
-
You might have noticed that as precipitation hit welsh coast the echo intensified. What we do not know is if thats just convection. Or if rain turned to snow. Unless someone has nw extra and you will be able to tell
I'm not expert but NW extra says it's turning to sleet across the Vale. Im a bit worried that the front is starting to push too far east now. Bulk of it and the heavy stuff might miss us...
-
Well I shall say when it hits here can't be far away now and tell you whether its rain/snow or wah ever.
NW Extra shows it turning to sleet/snow away from immediate coastal areas
Seems precip is intensifying and becoming larger as it crosses the Bristol Channel IMO.
-
Certainly a nowcasting and lamp post watching event. Glad I didn't go to bed earlier.
-
That precipitation looks like it is heading for me lol. Temp at the moment 0.7C dew point 0.7C, will it be snow or will it be rain?????
Looks as if my son's school had inside info as we had a text at 3.30pm saying that 4" of snow has been forecast so school will be closed tomorrow, the only school throughout the Vale of Glamorgan
Very drastic measures for the school to take considering the Met Office said it was very uncertain.
-
Is it me or is this precipitation a lot heavier and a lot further north than on the models or I'm I wrong?
-
Us in soutrh wales will be lucky to get anything at this rate.
10-15mm is 10-15cm I believe.

Guys - bring this back into the real world here. We have a possibility of another snow event and looking into differing factors is what this forum, and this friendly Wales regional thread is all about.
You can have someone put on block - do not rise to what sometimes is the intention of some posts (or what appears to be) - we do not want this thread locked because of bickering. Show a bit more maturity or restraint.
I digress but snowing here in Bargoed and hoping for a nice snow event tomorrow particularly as I have booked a day off.
Weather is fun - especially the differing opinions - weather will do what it wants - nature guys.
Let's get back to discussions and leave the bickering to one side.
JK
Completely agree

Excuse me? Uppity? Who the hell do you think you are. The actual fact is that you we're wrong last Friday completely wrong. Little boys? I'm a bright student studying Business & Economics at Uni! Weather is 1 of my many interests and I come on here to talk about it and the possibilities and yeah we get a bit excited, sorry about that. We don't get snow too often in Wales so when it is forecasted even if it's a small possibility we will talk about it. Why are you even on here? Just to cause problems no doubt. Your comments are frankly insulting and abusive to many of us on here. Yes I hope someone does go to the moderators and takes you off here, before you came along this was the friendliest forum on netweather.
It's not like we're making stuff up, the NAE and other weather models suggest snow so we are talking about it! What is your problem mate.
