Hi BOB,

i'm actually suprised because when I saw it was snowing I went outside still in my t-shirt and I didn't feel cold at all even tho it was snowing!

Snow here in Wollescote near stourbridge not settling though.

[P.K.]

About 5 seconds of snow then in Reading where it is currently 6.1C.

More falling now (5 minutes later)

[ScottSnow]

Sleeting here. It was raining before so hopefully it will turn to snow.

[kold weather]

another breif hail shower again.

[ScottSnow]

Has turned to a very heavy 'wintry' (sleet) shower with gusting winds.

I would expect it would of been snow a little higher up.

Height of excitment up here in NW Yorks. At least 45 minutes of more or less continuous snow eddies: I cannot in my life remember such a sustained spell of such light and inconsequential snowfall: don't think it ever got above 1.5 on the Strat(m)os snow intensity scale (we must have caught the very edge of the feature moving S to the W of the country). Wind was NW but soon veered around once the snow had passed. Last evening's sleet obviously fell as snow above about 1500'. The distant tops of Whernside are dusted, and Ingleborough (2200' or so) is, if not a glittering jewel, certainly sugar coated.

Bit of a secondhand report via mother, but 2 minute sleet shower back at home in Canterbury mid morning.

[J10]

Snwoing again, but light and certainly very wet.

[emmahicks55]

snowing v.lightly in harlow again current temp 5.5 0c

[Paul Sherman]

Strangely enough Essex seems to be doing very well from this North-Westerly today, 2 hail showers and 1 snow shower so far, the sky is black to the North and North-West again so more to come, there must be some very unstable air around East Anglia as these are very convective showers today!!

[rob-lancs]

[Kerwin]

Had snowcover at 7am this morning,

melted by 8am. Snow showers off and on today, nothing settling.

[Kent Snow]

Very very light hail shower around an hour ago.

[fabrinelli]

3 very light snow showers mid morning-lasting about 1 minute each then heavy sleet mixed with some snow (not large amounts but big flakes) lasting about 40 minutes, 2 or 3 of which fell just as snow.

[skywatcher]

We have black skies, howling gusts of a northly wind, a rainbow and .... rain

[Thundery wintry showers]

Light flurry of very wet snow at 3pm

[ScottSnow]

Have had heavy rain for the past 45mins here in Gateshead.

[Rollo]

[skywatcher]

Not fair, is it? All the right conditions but temps too high. 8C just dropped to 6C here. perhaps tonight.....
