Heaviest snow Ive ever seen in my life here! I watched it turn, and the lampost outside my house almost fell over. Already 1cm settled, after only 5 minutes :shock: I cant see out my attic window!!! :shock:

:shock: Wow.....and i thought Swindon was boring!!..........Just before 1700 it started to rain a bit, then down came the snow!!! Very heavy with gale force winds too.

As if that wasn't enough there has been 6 flashes of lightening with a strange eerie roar of thunder! :shock: .........This is a first for me.Enjoy!

As i type there has just been another bright flash and rumble.Anyone else enjoying? :(

So Lancaster did get its snow, but less than virtually the whole of the rest of the country, thanks to those winds creating a concentrated warming to the east of Morecambe Bay.

1cm temporarily settled, half-melted, and then froze over.

It's snowing again here in Edinburgh. It's also absolutely freezing, so all the snow that melted when the sun came out earlier has frozen. It's going to be interesting getting home...

All the snow and hail has frozen solid here, Just been to the shop in it, Talk about frictionless surfaces, When I went to put some old pizza boxes in the bin out the back, The snow on it broke off in to glassy chunks.

If we get anymore snow on top of this, Well frictionless is all that comes to mind.

Like Crazy Snow Fan the temp dropped here in Burnham, Essex from 4C to 1C in about 45mins, and now we have an accumulation of about 1-2 inches in about an hour and there could be some more, although it's snowing lighter now but looks like further bands to the North. Big fat wet flakes which hopefully will compact when we get a frost tonight.
