3 Inches in Upton Upon Severn. Best I have seen in 17 Years.

Lovely views this morning across the malvern hills - Magic

Interesting variations in snowfall from Burnham (where I live) to Colchester (to where I work).

Burnham, nearer the coast had about an inch which was begining to melt at 8am.

Colchester, to the north had a similar amount at about 9.30am.

But as I was travelling north of Maldon the snow was thicker amounting to near 2-3" and covering everything and roads trecherous.

But a typical sign of the even larger teapot - the snow ALWAYS seems to melt in the daytime, not much ice and obviously warm ground temps as well as temps marginally above freezing.

Got fed up of the hardly accumulating little flurries we were getting today in Derby so i took a drive up to the Peak District - around Axe Edge to be exact. Up there was about 10cm of very hard and frozen level snow but with drifts up to about 20-30cm.

Temperatures rose to a very impressive -2C

[johnholmes]

yes was not far off from there at one stage this afternoon on the outskirts of Sheffield.

The increase in snow cover and depth was really noticeable leaving the M18 on to the M1=almost nil, then out through Sheffield and on to its upper western outskirts, all covered=1-2cm, then on out further towards the Castleton road out but still within the city boundaries and a good fairly frozen cover = 3-5cm.

Snow has suddenly intensified and easterly winds have picked up. Settling!

Stu is it big flakes because i came over from Killamarsh to Dronfield his morning it was heavy for a few hours till between 7 and 10 but since then its been light just wondering whether i might have some heavy snow to look forward to it was snowing lightly when i last checked 30 mins ago heres hoping .

[NorthantsSnow]

still light snow here!

Starting again here in Northampton too. Current temp: 0C

[Summer of 76]

Very light snow here in Bedford, temperature 1.2c

[Cymru]

Snowing again here. Coming down heavily now.

[Cloud 10]

Had some decent hail and snow showers overnight which gave a light covering this morning,then quite a heavy snow shower about 9am which added to the cover which is no more than a couple of inches.

Currently snowing very lightly.

[Pickles]

Well, it started at 03:20 with a few flakes and was heavy until about 11:30 when it became light and is still coming down lightly now.

Ended up with 3.5 inches in this area and 4 - 5 inches in the more remote areas. Driving today has been fun to say the least.

Snow intesified in the last hr--moderate to heavy now.Another cm or so in last hour or so and freezing on ground now.

[Polar Low]

Had around 4 inches here today, and been snowing on and off since. Went sleety for a hour or two after 3.. but back to settling snow now.

Grass & quieter, less used pavements still have a full covering of 3 inches or so, and that may be topped up now. Moderate snow falling and sticking as I type.

[Guest Viking141]

Sunny with occasional snow showers, the heaviest of these most recently at around tea-time.

[Will storm]

Amazing amounts of snow falling now! In a mater of mins we've had 1cm hope it lasts longer

[biddie]

Woo hoo ! dont even need to lampost watch snow so heavy you can see it falling

[The Enforcer]

With 6 centimetres of snow today, is Abingdon still an appropriate measurement of disappointment? Here endeth the proper lying snow drought.

[lesta_snow]

10/10 snow event - special.

11-13 cms in my garden. Snow covering the curb on the road - no thaw. Snowed for 13 hours. Drifts of snow 20 cm +. I shall be changing my signature later

[Snowyowl9]

Moderate snow falling and being blown about. 18cm now fell today with some impressive drifts growing to around 1m

That`s impressive 6 or 7 inches was forecast yesterday in places, seems further east has done well too, just over 3 inches here and 3 foot drifts.

Wow you snow drought has certainly ended this winter thats 2.5 inches.

Mainly light snow here since about 0630, average depth is 4.5cm which is nothing to get too excited about in this part of the world but I'm grateful for small mercies.

I'm reasonably confident we'll get considerably more on Saturday morning.

Well missed all the action up here today but currently under a snow/ hail shower. Temp has dropped away now and imagine the roads will be very icy come the morning even if the showers come to nothing
