Snow/wintry Precipitation Reports: 22nd February

[Guest ChaserUK]

I am sure there are plenty more reports to go tonight!

[love-it]

Well, snow shower in herefordshire has stopped. Has left partial areas of whiteness and about 0.8 mm or so on cars and shed roof and the usual prone places. Didnt expect it, maybe more later?

[DeathStyler]

Heavy snow here again, and looking at the radar more showers should effect me throughout the night, great!

[coolkitten12]

Lots of snow here in buckingham, yet most of it is melting, come on more snow. Apparently there are meant to be 3 blizzards over the next two days!

[barnety2000]

Now clouding up hopefully snow is imminent- curently -1c so should lie nicely.

Light snow falling here in Darwen right now, it is sticking where it can.

[tatty]

[matt_in_dudley]

Just had another short snow shower! Heavy flakes!

[Kent Snow]

Yet another Snow shower. Easily into double figures now.

[thunderstrike]

another snow shower

[Stratos Ferric]

Snow all morning, just light, no more than 1-2 on Stratos's intensity scale, but not really adding to the 2cm overnight. One or two light showers this afternoon but otherwise a steady thaw, fairly dramatic lower down and on slopes with a S'ly aspect. Then around 4-5 a really beefy shower giving around 0.5-1cm of fresh snow: up at above 10 on my intensity scale for a few minutes, and big flakes too. Just a few light flurries since. Good old fashioned winter's day though, though the rate of thaw was disappointing.

Heavy heavy snow in Lincoln now. We've had heavy showers here since 6pm, and they are not letting up. Blizzard conditions atm, and it hasn't stopped now for a good 20 mins this last one.

Temp hovering around -1 to 0c, wind coming from NNE at 16km/h

[DeathStyler]

Snow starting again here, moderate currently. 8th shower in two hours, with good accumilations.

[KT]

I just look outside and there is snow on the roofs of cars and very little snow on paths.

[DeathStyler]

Now throwing it down here..

Hi Snowy Britain!! About 5cm in Hexham today and about 2cm yesterday (21st). Still getting heavy snow showers and accumulating significantly. About -0.5 C at present - perfect for snow. I am at approx. 160m so less at River Tyne level.

Where have all the mild rampers gone!!!

[DeathStyler]

Main road is now a TOTAL whiteout!

[Kent Snow]

Big fluffy flakes falling from the Sky. Wonderful.

[roberthines]

Been snowing on and off most of the day here in county durham.

Also see durham webcam.

[Cakie]

Drove home from work in a complete whiteout :blink:

Snow was settling on the roads and making for interesting driving :unsure:

Stopped at the moment but 0.1c

[paul tall]

Yet more snow this evening, another 2cm, I'm getting bored of it now.

The showers seem to be getting a little longer.

[ansedy]

Looks like the start of an interesting night.

Just had a snow shower lasting about 10 minutes, and there is another dark cloud looming upon us.

Looking on the radar, hopefully more to come.

[roberthines]

Hooray another heavy snow shower just passed, about 10 mins long and because everythings already frozen it settled slightly to yet another max depth of 0.5cm in parts, and every individual flake settled and froze straight off onto the decking and frosty grass! :unsure: Fourth of the day
