It was snowing in central london around 6 am, with about an inch of coverage. Unfortunately since then the laying snow has melted quite a bit and it now looks as if there is less than a cm on the ground out there. It's started snowing again within the last 10 minutes, much bigger flakes this time.

Some snow here this morning, about 2/3 cm. Roads are covered but there's only a dusting of snow on the grass. Only been snowing for 2 hours or so, and there's light snow falling now.

Measured 4-5 inches on front lawn at 7 a.m.. Good old-fashioned synoptics - for those of us old enough to remember the 1980s!

Light snow just South of Nottingham at 8am. Only recently started, but settling readily. Temp. 0.0 C. Disgusted to hear a BBC Radio reporter from Worcestershire (I think) banging on about snow starting at 3am and "snowing very heavily for 3 hours", leaving AT LEAST 2.5" cover!!! If that's heavy snow, I'm the Prime Minister.... Why do they 'hyperbolise' about weather all the time? Can't they see that they're talking nonsense?! :whistling:

You should have seen the reporter on the Brecon Beacons reporting "blizzard" like conditions!! (Yeah right-you can't see in a blizzard!!)It's coming down here fast now-no doubt IF it can last all day we will have something decent. Looks like this is all happening much slower than predicted though?

Overnight very cold, widespread icy and in the last 30 mins it has started snowing. Only fine snow here at the minute ahead of whats left of the main band which should arrive in the next hour. Settling readily.

Not really what I would post on the MetOffice as 'Heavy Snow' lol who they trying to kid :)
