[pyrotech]

but i wont forgett this night in a hurry...pure fast white out here...classic snow storm..was epecting lightning...approaching a inch or more

Im just glad some have got a great snowfall tonight, we got a covering 1cm in Cardiff but might have a bit more later but temps are marginal here.

pyro....I dont know if what I have had t was Local.but it must be 30 yrs Ive seen snow like that

1981 blizzard??, im sure it's not that bad if you hardly have an inch, january 2004 remember getting 2 inches in just over half a hour with thunder

[ukfire]

Could we all have a snapshot of current conditions?

We have light snow at the mo.......

Just woke up after a few hours kip, instead of trawling through all the posts could some please inform if this is going to hit Hereford?ta

Your so greedy. Lol

you got a cm and two snowfalls in a week!

Just coz its FREE.

More percipitation might clip Cardiff later in the night depending if the low moves any quicker eastwards or not. Problem will be whether sleet or snow which in such a fluid situation is very difficult to predict.

you will either have to watch the radar or go to sleep and see whats there in morning. Jay its not all over, more opportunitys before Atlantic moves in and long way till end of winter.

i will keep you posted of near future possible snow events.

Getting a good dumping in Winterbourne (M4/M32) junction area. Bythe looks of the radar this could go on for a while and its settling quickly.

got a feeling it was local.as Trickey only reported fairly heavy snow...

yes the radar is showing the front of heavy precip in our firing line at the moment approaching the bristol area the real fun and games not far away I feel......

Sounds like you were lucky with the snow then I'm pleased for you, snow starting to fall again
