Today's Weather And General Chat

4" or more of snow has fallen. The roads have been total chaos around Oldham & Rochdale, have had to abandon my car to get home from work, all the main roads around Saddleworth are near impassible, doesnt seem to have been much gritting!! Also very foggy at the moment, and still hovering around freezing. Pics just taken

PS......its still snowing intermittently

Wow!

Beautiful chilly blue sky morning with some puddles still frozen. It'll be ruined I'm sure when I get rain for lunch instead of the white stuff.

[Norrance]

Our second spell of snow of the day [this one unexpected ] is just clearing now leaving the back roads in a right mess.

Dunno where reports of blizzards are coming from as there does not seem to be high winds about anywhere?

[Kent Snow]

4.1C, few cumulus, sunny, wind from the SW, 1006mb.

Morning Folks

Cold dry and sunny in Central London, clouds just starting to appear, the rain won't be far behind, though the BBC are showing light snow showers for London, lets see who is right....

Currently got rain/sleet/snow mixed together. Temp 3.2c. Good to see the first flakes of snow since Jan!!!!

[Iceni]

Just started sleeting here, maybe it'll turn snowier... itching to press the 'Yes' button on the vote, but will be honest and desist until it snows.

[kaz]

very heavy hail/rain showers here and cold .... Not nice and no snow.. temps up to 5 now after a frozen night. Oh hang on snow has fallen in the south west ... Up on the moors by the look of it.

Radar showing heavy precip heading this way, prob rain though.

[sunny scunny]

Unbroken sunshine here now after a cloudy start with some heavy snow.

Current temp is 4c

[Bottesford]

Woke up to a covering of snow - first this season. Shame I had to perform a 10 mile return cycle to the dentist - then get a filling! Pavements are pretty dangerous although I think it's melting now.

Min of 0.2c (lowest value this season) now 3.5c

[Iceni]

We have snow and I've clicked that 'Yes' button.

[spayne]

Precip arrived here in London (Whitehall area) and from my view from the window it looks very much like rain!!

Getting very dark here now and the radar shows it intensifying, maybe some sleet in the heavier bursts?

Hi Folks

In central London it is rain 1 - 0 snow, so I guess the BBC was being a bit optimistic, unless an intense pulse comes our way, enjoy the snow those who have it...

[Snowyowl9]

Don`t understand what went wrong last night looking at the 6am radar as far as snowfall was concerned hills to the south going to below halfway down had a good covering 2 inches or more maybe,only a sprinkling here which had frozen, and nothing over the west hills/mountains either.

Ice was the big thing on the roads havn`t seen it like that for a number of years a mini version of 1978 freezing rain.

Still icey now and very cold at just 1.3c with a couple of very light snow showers,bulk of those have heading south of here all morning and missing here.

Got down to -1.3c

Wind is west/SW
