Snow/wintry Precipitation Reports 26th December

[GarethK]

Not promising here, clear skies, a harsh frost, -1.2º c, bit surprised i cant even see any cloud yet.

[Michael Fishermans Friend]

Occasional light sleety stuff here at the present temps now down to 0.9C and falling!

[The Enforcer]

N-W radar showed a small snow shower (blue) creeping through towards the Oxford area. I tracked it until 10pm it was positioned directly over here. Rain. Crap again.

Had a short 'snow', albeit very wet, shower a short while back here.

Well what good timing that was. I looked out of the window and it started snowing.

Unless i'm mistaken then blue means rain. Pink means snow on the NW radar. Sorry to correct you i just don't want you to be dissapointed when you see blue blobs and think they are snow.

Set off from Chesterfield, Derbys at around 7:40pm and it was sleeting. Nothing else up the M1. Although I turned the security light on once I had got home and there were spots of something, but I think it was rain.

Tamara

(Sorry Paul )

That's fine Tamara

Still snowing hard - v. wet at the mo but so heavy that it's settling all the same! They gritted our road earlier and that's when you know it could be bad because we only live on a quiet residential street!

Hopefully it'll get colder later and the snow will settle properly then! I'll keep you posted!

Just wandered outside (as one does in one's pyjamas at 10:30pm on a Winter's eve) to find some chunky looking icy type stuff on the cars. Didn't see it falling, but I guess this could be counted as a snow report, as such. So there.

[WBSH]

weird little chunks of ice fell for about 2 minutes here ... about as exciting as it has got!

Cars frozen hard here in Storrington too and have been for a few hours. I just stuck my head outta the window and I think the stars are starting to dissapear in the east ... or is that just my wishful thinking.

I made a mistake. I meant the radar showed pink for snow. Still got rain.

[Pale Blue Sky]

I'm reliably informed it's snowing in Corby at the moment...

Hi there neighbour!

Not much change here...am hoping for big snow from this "event", but it seems the media, and indeed the experienced forecasters on here aren't holding out much hope for us Sussexers

[Baynesey (snow chaser)]

little snow now in canterbury, actally, moderate snow an upgrade

[Davesty34]

Nick where are you in South Kent please? It has dried up here and is 1º now.

Had a Light dusting here in Essex, Basildon area.

Just snowed for a few mins here in E. Sussex too - still pretty wet but some settled on top of the stuff from an earlier shower which has now frozen.

We need some proper, drier snow to come along during the night to produce a good covering for the morning.

I'm still pretty hopeful though - this is only the beginning...!

Yes it did snow here in Corby, A very light dusting now.

[xxsnowflakexx]
