Snow Watch: Cymru And South West England

[Dartmoor_Matt]

More snow here, just to put it into some sort of perspective, an upturned bucket has well and trully disappeared under the snow, the garden path, with walls on either side holding back the lawn is now level... could be interesting! Snow falling heavily again!

[dogs32]

The snow is light now but i think that area to south may make mid somerset before the northern ppn returns south so could be interesting.

temp all night til this morning was 0.2 and now it has droped to 0.0.

wow....lucky you mate..truly splendid old chap :lol:

[kerensa]

snow eased for about 10mins here, now back , snowing heavily again.

[dogs32]

anyone know how long this is going to go on for.....as its stalled on radar :lol:

I need to get back to work......lost loads of money this week

Oh for £#@&$ sake, the ppn looks like it intensifies as it rotates west after Yeovil! :lol:

If you've got the NW radar, put in BA21 and you'll see what I mean.

[Bethany C]

Third whiteout of the week, second uni snowday and it's still bloody snowing!

[noggin]

It's really pepped up again here in south glos! This snow is going nowhere fast!

3 going on 4 inches now. The roads are a nightmare.......worse than yesterday. I can't get my car back on the drive because I can't get up the bit where the kerb is.(My dropped kerb just ain't wide enough). I'll have to go and clear the road.....an A road, at that!

My car has a problem too. I just managed to struggle home. Would there be any point in calling the AA? Or the local garage? They'll just be inundated. I will try to get the car back on the drive, at least it will be safe. I'll just have to walk to work until the snowy spell is over. Oh, dear, I'm a right old misery this morning.....and even all that lovely snow isn't helping.

Sorry, chaps, to dump on you all like this. But I feel a bit better having let it all out.

What a shocker when NW went down last night......I was literally just about to post a link to the flash warning from the MetO about the current snow! :lol:

Ah, well, I'll go and see what else is in store for us lucky boys and girls.....

[Devon-Nelly]

Yep its been snowing here for the past hour or so, i woke up to see it snowing. Only light to moderate but there was tons of it coming down about 15 mins ago, pretty much blizzard conditions.

Its eased off slightly now but its still snowing, we have around an inch to two on most surfaces (even the concrete) and slush to nothing elsewhere. Temp 0.8c

[kerensa]

ok, this is crazy it gone dark, and i never seen snow as heavy as this in 12 years of living here!! it just keeps coming

[Nevesy]

Dental appointment cancelled, result!

Still comming down heavily here, very wet snow but its still sticking, I wonder how long its going to last....

[jo200199]

Snowed heavy last night topped everthing up by an inch this is really helping the snow cover we'vehad snow cover here since sunday night now and it doesn't look to be going anywhere fast eeither. Any showers possible in Wales today? I want more lol

Hi all, new to this as u may tell lol. Bin snowing here in Cwm, Ebbw Vale since bout 10.30 last night. Started off quite light then turned wild at about midnight. The wind was fierce too, which made it look like a blizzard out. It has eased this a.m but still snowing here and the sky still looks full of it . We were forecast heavy snow wednesday night and got a light dusting, last night we weren't forecast any untill a flah warning about 8.30 and boy did it snow. If I knew how to get pics on here I wud put them up. Keeps saying I haven't selected a pic when I have

[snow what snow]

still snowing here, only light, still not enough for a snowball let alone a snow man ,few patches on grass starting to thaw temp +2.2

[Dartmoor_Matt]

noggin: it might be worth putting a call in and seeing what they say?

Just heard that Princetown is cut off at the moment... no big problem there tho I guess you could say where I was to, 'cos unless they bring a plough up, there is no way there is any traffic coming in and out of here.

and its still snowing

[Devon-Nelly]

Its picked up again here, only moderate snow but theres a sheer amount blowing about in the wind

[Matt12345]

Such a shame the temp is above freezing.

Snow melting faster than it can be replaced.

[Nights King]

Moderate snow continues to fall here and im hoping it will get alot worse as it closes in from north and south

[madge]

Still snowing in Tidwoth on the Salisbury Plains did ot get much last night but boy is it a blizzard now! School shut for the 5th day in a row and looks like another day on the sofa watching TV.

[dogs32]

this is crazy really..........we never get this amount in ONE WEEK....ICE AGE

[Barb]

Had about 4 inches of snow here. Egg on the faces of the BBC yet again.

[Matt12345]

Seems to me as you run the radar, it is dying out.

[Dartmoor_Matt]

temp here is below freezing, winds from the NE with gusts up to 40mph

[dogs32]

i think Nick.F was very good on his precition....complete rubbish the BEEB.....I THINK WE ARE around 4 - 5 inches

i hate to say this.the GFS pic Paul posted looked quite accurate

GFS ON THIS OCCASION PROVED RIGHT

it seems good just beofre the event...

Edited February 6, 2009 by dogs32

[Matt12345]

Another couple of hours and any falling snow will be hitting green grass and wet roads.

Temp is certainly rising here.

Anybody else have the same?
