Snow/wintry Precipitation Reports: 28th December

[Osbourne One-Nil]

Thought I'd better start a new thread for today because I've just had a rather nice snow shower. Didn't settle, but looks loke there are a few more on the way.

Currently 1.4º.

[Stratos Ferric]

A couple of brief snow flurries here early in the morning, giving a dusting. Mix of rain, hail and sleet showers early this afternoon. Who said it never snows anymore!

Currently sleeting here.

[Terminal Moraine]

1cm lying snow here at 0900 after heavy snow shower for half an hour around 0430. Snow line was about 290m. Several cm lying on hills further north judging by how white they looked.

Almost all snow has melted now, just a few patches left.

Just had a little sleety shower, not much at 5c, but it seemed a bit sleety to me.

Just back from my holidays at Nenthead, Cumbrian, in the North Pennines (1500 ft above sea leve), so a good few days of snow reports follow:

Tue 21st Dec: 3cm snow lying when we arrived. B)

Fri 24th Dec: snow flurries early evening, dusting of snow by midnight

Sat 25th Dec: 5cm covering of powder snow. Beautiful walk in the snow on Christmas Day , our road was so iced up the relatives couldn't get up it in their car and we had to carry their presents 300 yards up the hill. Make a great story for them back in London...

Sun 26th Dec: snow covering persists. Sledging with the kids. My 2-year old doesn't know what to make of it.

Mon 27th Dec: snow beginning to melt, all gone by nightfall.

Tue 28th Dec: fresh snow falling , dusting above 1800ft. Very icy 10 mile drive to Allendale, road like a skating rink as good old Northumberland council didn't grit it. Snow still falling as we set off back home to London.

Great holiday.

[Hywel]

sleet snow and hail last night, had a thin covering of wet snow/hail when I went to bed at 02:00 but it has all gone this morning.

Wintry showers finally faded yesterday.

Sleet and wet snow gradually truned to sleet and hail then rain and sleet - last shower yesterday at 5pm.

Much milder today so that looks like it for a while.

Great to see the snow lying from 25 Dec to early yesterday (28 Dec). This morning the final bits of ice sheet on our stream and pond have melted.

Hail but thats about it.
