Incredibly bright echos over Taunton that are heading this way.

From all the reports of snow to my west and north it's gotta happen soon surely?

[NickSomerset]

It's snowing heavy now and not sleet, settling on cars but slushy on the road, Still ice on the pavements so may lay on that.

[Bristawl Si]

looking at radar the best looks like its an hour or so away yet. nice ppn in cornwal/devon moving this way.

Once that clears is that it or is it going to keep forming because it doesnt look like it could last into the morning?

Last forecast i saw at 8.57pm on news24, indicated heaviest snow for Glos, s.e.wales, BTL and somerset for between 10 o'clock and midnight tonite, before getting slightly less cold with light rain by morn :lol:

Hello

We currently have defrosted snow falling here.

It took me a while to get that one! Snowing lightly but everything has turned white again! I can't believe it, the ground was really wet.

YES HERE TO IN ELY WHERE TO ARE YOU

Unbelivable here now, settling quickly, temp now only 0.5oc, blizzard like.

I know the term blizzard is over used, but this really is serious.

I am in Hereford and I can't see that much snow, I thought it was more sleety?

[Britz]

Been snowing here in weston-super-mare for the last 45 mins. Doesn't appear to be settling yet. But still hoping

Edit: Moderate to Heavy snow now

I'm only quoting what i saw on BBC news24 an hour ago. But hopefully you're right, 'cause i'd love to walk to work in the morn through a nice covering of snow again.

It is...amazing!. Suppose if we get rain this evening then it will turn to slush? How long is it supposed to last, till 3 am?
