Snow Watch: Cymru And South West England

[iceage2]

a few flurries now in swansea

[HappyHatter]

its all far tooo east for the main stuff :lol:

I know how you feel, the bulk has moved to the East..... might get an hour of snow tops down our way/up your way. Hopefully an inch if we're lucky! Haven't seen the forecasts today, was it all meant to be further to the West?

[Karen Ann]

Had about 1 cm and a bit in an hour here (15 miles north of Bournemouth), my car was clear at 9, and its still coming down. Meteox even has some red coming our way, woot.

Same here but apparently it is going to turn to rain. The temps are going up...... and I was so excited that I wouldn't have to go to work tomorrow too! I am going to try and post a piccie in a mo. I can't believe that almost all of our 2 inches had pretty much gone by 6pm this evening but now my back garden is a white out again. I am really so utterly gobsmacked at this weather we are having it is so rare.

Those bands are rotating around an area of low pressure.

You can already see the precipitation edging slightly west, so don't worry, you will definitely see some snow!

Does make one wonder... thankfully ive no idea what its doing outside, but Hitman is quite an interesting film... the story is somewhat lacking, but there we go... good to know hollywood is still knocking out films to bash the Russians.

So OK my last post was 5 mins ago. At the time we had heavy heavy snow, a white out and I was reading other posts and it told me it was going to rain..... I went outside for a ciggie and guess what? It's peeing down with rain. What can I say? Another beer I think....
