[Methuselah]

Nice pics nc...

Heavy snow here just now. 5cm lying, -3.6C.

[Paul Gilliver]

The Snow stopped falling at around 10.00pm it is partially cloudy frosty and sunny this morning here in Newhall with 2cm of lying snow

[nickygf1]

not so much a snow storm but several flurries in Inverness last night leaving about 1cm

[UK Blizzards]

Sorry, was working on afters yestarday. Had 2 hours of snow from 5.30pm to 7.30pm, settled on cars, roofs and grass etc...but not on roads as was too wet. Better than i expected and a nice suprise..

[Hywel]

.5CM fell at around 7 this morning to add to the 8CM already lying!

2004 has been a great year for snow!

[GrimReaper]

Only 4cm here - all from last nights snowfall.

Obs at 8.00hrs

Clear

Wind NW 5kts

Visibility over 30km

Temp -4c

Pressure 1012mb

Yesterday evening we had thawing of the lying snow even though temps were below zero ( ground "heat" as there has only been 1 significant frost here so far this autumn). What a pity - if all the snow had accumulated we would have about

15cm.

Noticed this morning that the "snow line" is at 200m all land below that has no snow cover at all.

All we had was light rain and mild temps of 11c yesterday evening until 9pm and the rain stopped and temps dropped very rapidly at around 1c every 3 minutes for around half an hour. Then this morning we had a few flakes of snow - obviously didn't do anything but it is very surprising to see any snow or sleet down here before December. Very icy this morning too!

[Kerwin]

We got snow......(does a dance)

My 1st wintry precipitation report of the season

Sleetyness fell slightly for about 15 minutes from 0900.

[Jackfrost]

There was a heavy snow shower at about 6.30am. which lasted about 20mins. It left a covering of about 2cm which melted once the sun rose.

[Hywel]

Heavy Hail/Wet Snow and Sleet mix in Deeside now.

[SP1986]

I believe it is snowing now in Heswall, nothing here though on Liverpool Hope campus just dry. SFM should have snow now though? Ive zoomed in and I believe Heswall could see a dusting of that shower! I dont know until I go home though

[Hywel]

Looks pretty dark over the Wirral way from here Ste, and it is a Wet Snow/Hail mix here, so I wouldn't be suprised.

Can you see the Clwydians from Hope Campus? They where out of the cloud this morning, looked great, got some pics I will try an upload later.

[SP1986]

I cannot see the Clwyddians from Liverpool Hope but im going home soon so i will. I can guarantee Heswall will have pure snow due to its height. Looks forward to seeing whats settled as its been going a while. Can you see the Wirral at all?? or is the visibility too rubbish?

[Methuselah]

No Ste. I can't see the Wirral from here...

It must be due to the Earth's curvature or something...lol

How's the study going btw???

[SP1986]

lol bad bad Pete. My studies virtually none existent at this moment in time. I wonder why that is? However normally the study is going good upt o date on everything. Im sorry this is off topic team, its Pete's fault

[Thundery wintry showers]

I have found webcams for the Wirral on the Internet, but not any for Heswall.

It would appear to be snowing, but not settling, in most places.

Can only see as far up as Burton from here (no lying snow there, but thats only 10m higher than here ), can nearly see Neston area. Will be able to see it when I get home If the visibility is ok.

Back on topic, still having Wet Snow/Sleet showers here

[rob-lancs]

Nothing here in Burnley itself apart from frost, however look around you to the hills which tower around the town in all directions and there's a good covering of snow. I've attempted to take a photo of pendle hill from near my house where theres a clear view and we'll see how it turns out when I get back, but basically anything high up in Burnley will have woken to a covering which has stayed since 9pm last night when the last of the band headed south which shows how cold it is. The car was frozen rigid this morning and I managed to nearly take the handle of the passenger side door but fixed it now. If anyone's interested I'll post the image when I get home later tonight.

[derbyshire_lad]

we have still got a decent covering still here in dronfield north derbyshire doesnt look like its going to thaw either

[SP1986]

back home in heswall, just been in a snow shower in Liverpool, Birkenhead and Heswall (three seperate events)
