Stopped snowing in Macclesfield. Looks like the temperatures are not low enough to keep the snow that's settled - everything's going slushy.

[paul tall]

Well that didn't last long, light snow grains now. Slight dusting.

Oh well, better than a kick in the nads I suppose. <_<

Stopped Snowing in Newcastle under Lyme,

light to heavy snow at times in dronfield north derbyshire

[Stratos Ferric]

Snowing all morning here in Stratosshire, first as grains, now as larger feathery flakes. About 5mm lying, everywhere going white. Current intensity on the Stratos scale is 5-10, so quite some way short of a blizzard.

Starting to Snow Again here in Newcastle under Lme @ 13:06

[Travelman]

Snow just stopped here in Linthwaite, Huddersfield-mainly wet snow but on moors/hills opposite (guess 600-800als) its settled-very pretty-guessing about 2/3cms up there!

[Gorky]

Snowing for the first time today here inScarborugh now. Not heavy, but it should be cols enough for it to stick around if it snows a while

[mackerel sky]

My mum texted me about 30 minutes ago to tell me its snowing and settling in my home town of Yarm, near Middlesbrough.

[mackerel sky]

As I posted that, some light snow has justed started falling here in Rushden!

[Terminal Moraine]

Moderate-heavy snow still falling, 2cm lying now. Temp' has risen to

-0.5c.

As Stratos succinctly put it, about 5/10 on the Snowfall Terminalis

scale.

[Thundery wintry showers]

Sleet and wet snow continuing on South Tyneside, not cold enough for it to settle. Having said that, I can't say I'm disappointed by the event given that I was expecting freezing rain.

Taken about half an hour ago. Snowing steadily now

[paul tall]

I'll be uploading some more as the snow gets thicker, how do I stick a thumbnail pic in a post?

[sparkle]

Been snowing here in York for 1/2 hour not laying.

[johnholmes]

i'm determined to get a snow report in.

Just taken elderly relatives back to the sw suburbs of Sheffield, they live about 750 ft up, snowing quite heavily, visibility down to only a few hundred metres and 1cm of lying snow.

Here in Doncaster, see normal report!

[GrimReaper]

Looks like thats all the snow fall for here.

Temp is minus 0.5c

Wind is west 3-8kts

Total cloud cover

3cm of lying snow - not thawing at present

(So much for my earlier prediction of sleet rather than snow - I will need more practice at this game!)

just to confirm tws earlier report on snow in lancaster. we in morecambe bay had brief snow 8.30 to 9.00 am this morning. interesting to see that it was also snowing a few hundred yards from the sea at heysham 5 miles west of lancaster.

[enigma]

Snowing very slightly here in Corby for last 15 mins or so but not sticking as it is too fine
