Or http://www.trafficscotland.org/lev/index.aspx Drumochter on the A9 (NW Highlands), looks still to be snowing hard!

[Ben_Cambs]

On and of light snow and hail for last hour, now its rain, whoops did i say rain i meant HEAVY SNOW !!

Tbf if you do get a covering it will be gone very quickly, probably looking like it didnt snow at all in the morning!

I noticed a few flakes of sleety stuff in the headlights glare whilst driving through Rawnsley, Cannock, and the odd wintry splat on the windscreen, but apart from that, mainly drizzle.....Dewpoints and surface temps are generally on the rise across England & Wales..T850's are not very condusive to widespread snow, so for all you peeps up in the hilly parts, enjoy it whilst it lasts, because rain is on the way!

Yeah think it's mainly rain down here, wasn't expecting anything anyway.

And looking at the models it looks like theres plenty more of that to come.

Light rain here just started , hopefully experience what other people have, when the ppn gets heavier its turning to snow.

Light sleet here, melting snowflakes hitting the window More rain than snow though I would say. 2.9°C, down 0.5°C in the last 20 mins

EDIT: I'd say it is 60% rain and 40% snow approx.

[Derbyshire_snow]

Just been out to near Fox house it was raining in dronfield but it's snowing up on the tops on my way back it was sleeting all the way back to Dronfield with Sleet trying to turn to Snow in Dronfield which i was quite suprised about i don't think it will though sadly.

[Snowstorm1]

Rain and it feels bitterly cold and thundering grr thunder snow wudda been good aswell Oh well chin up for next cold snap/spell

[Northernlights]

Very cold day here with a high of 2c during the day and a very strong south wind making for very unpleasant conditions for working outside.A few wet flakes of snow this evening, but now dry and currently 3c. Ground still partially frozen after last nights frost of -3c and gritters out in force on the roads this evening. Winter seems to be sticking in and the first of our local holly trees with a large crop of berries has been stripped bare by the birds.

It's actually snowing in Dronfield now with some big flakes thrown in bearing in mind Dronfield is only at about 150m even lower than that in some spots wasn't expecting it.

You lucky lot that are seeing snow!

Those that are not may still get some though, never know, could be a night of rain, sleet, snow then rain again.

Good luck!

[Alex95]

Sleet turned back to rain now despite the precipitation getting heavier Temperature now 2.4°C.

[Mark Bayley]

Theres some snow flakes in the rain

[Cloud 10]

Fairly heavy wet snow here at the moment flying past the lampost in a strong wind.

A decent frost this morning followed by snow in the evening,not bad for the first day of winter.

[jonathon]

bbc weather on tv have said again that there could be some snow in wales and parts off england as colder air comes 4 a day again on thusday before it turns milder again on saturday. anyway thats what jay wyane said tonight on bbc news 24. he said it last night to.

[Nights King]

I see on the front page of net weather there is talk of some wintry stuff on higher ground during thurday.

Is there any real potential from this?
