I reckon they always put the hand over Wales because it's such a hard place to forecast i mean let's be onest the climate here is so diverse. Like were i live miles from Ammanford we still have about 4 inches of snow cover on the gardens and fields etc nothing in ammanford, Heavy snow here today nothing in Ammanford. It's so diverse therefore they can't forecast much, Plus wales is a very hilly area and youll find that a valley between to high mountains tends to do good because the cold air surrounds it and builds up in it.

interesting dusting maybe? xD

hope so. Im going to Birmingham with my school leaving 7am. Traveling back about 8pm should be interesting.

Are the blizzards still forcast?

Temp 0.3c now. I might be just too far north. I am located as my fellow Cardiffian friends say, the GATEWAY to the valleys lol.

Iam apariently Taffy but live in on top of the Garth Hill in the Taff Valley in the county of Cardiff so it confuses me lol.

Ok its here and its falling as sleet.

The rest of you have no chance if im this high up and its sleet.

Raining now in Cardiff, temp shot up over 1 degree in 15 minutes

Moderate rain falling on frozen surfaces. Looks like a skate rink outside!

Today and tonight looks like a dud here, Wed though looks interesting both GFS and meto shoot a little feature down the west side, with some cold air driving down this could easily give 5cms or so depending on it's track.
