Really, not even now?

It's snowing quite heavily in Bracebridge Heath at the moment.

I may have just seen a flake, or it could have been a small piece of litter, hard to tell.

[Bottesford]

Had a few flurries now - some of snow some of refrozen snow (big lumps like polystyrene).

A good start!

All the showers keep passing to the south of me :lol: I have got my eye on one shower just moving in now off the North Sea. Lets see were this one goes :lol:

[Karen]

I am not happy :lol: the hour and half of snow we had earlier, has gone, melted. We wont get an accumulation total if that keeps happening will we. Mind I suppose if its started snowing here earlier than it was supposed to - then we have just had a trial run to clear the airway s for the real stuff. :lol:

Be happy that you've actually seen snow.

[NorthantsSnow]

We had a snow flurry here earlier, started just after midday. It has stopped now but it was very pretty while it lasted :lol:

Keep 'em coming!

told you hehe, that streamer over humber is kicking off

[snowmad]

been mostly on rather than off in acaster, just started throwing it down with larger flakes than before, previously like a fine hail with flurries, no feather dusters coming down.

Settling on the ground nicely.

Get a feeling this isnt the main event as it comes and goes.

[Craigers]

wind is getting so strong here now, the streamer over humber has my name on it WOOOOOOOO

[tonka202]

I think SM mention on another thread this was not expected so anything now is bonus

If anything instability is greater and the snow event more wide spread then forcast 24hrs ago. A upgrade in my book
