Wales Cymru Cold Spell Discussion.

[whiskers]

snowing quite heavy here in blackwood currently got about two to three centimeters on the ground,would have more but the wind is blowing the snow around to much!

[BranMan]

temp dropped to 0.9C wind blowing snow eased a little, a good covering however lots of footprints outside shows its close to thawing...looking at the radar it seems as though it will stop here soon and another band to come later...but there are reports the front has not halted and may intensify whole it hangs around...lets hope it hangs around for about 5 days...a foot of snow is whats needed...not a centimetre

Cwmbran 100m asl SE Wales ( 5 miles east of newport, - higher ground )

Raining here... i knew it lol.

[welshwizard]

i live in ogmore vale and it is sleet down by the houses but mountains are white and bwlch looks very thick in fact cant see it, but only just stcking a little on cars,to low and not cold enough here to have fun lol.is it going to get worse as the day goes on?

[whiskers]

just let the dog out for her morning wee and the settled snow is quite slushy im in blackwood we have settled snow but obviously there must be rain in there as well, the snow isnt as good as the unpredicted snow we had last week, proper big flakes, this snow is small wet stuff, currently 1c here hope it turns into proper snow!

[Jackfrost]

This isn't looking good. Snow has now turned to rain and the front seems to have come too far north instead of stalling.

[Bafan]

Snowing fairly heavily here atm. Got a few cms cover down.

[Cymro]

bucketing down with rain here not good.

[whiskers]

[J10]

Patchy sleety stuff here, and wet outside.

Surprised to see snow warnings extended this morning.

[Nevesy]

Also getting rain, there are some signs of snow but not much.

[whiskers]

currently raining here, how gutting the only time we get a weather warning of heavy snow and its wet icy stuff typical! so near we will have to keep doing the snow dance

[A-Dizzle]

Hi Guys,

Very disappointing - snow turned to rain here - snow around on mountains, as stated before, snowlevel is around 1000 feet! I am under that by a little bit! Don't think it is going to turn to snow until it fades away tomorrow as no sign of the icy wind that might help.

It's biting out, massive windchill element going on. THe main problem IMO at the moment is that the precip needs to pep up. There's little cooling effect. It's also very localized.

[A_T]

Drizzling rain here.

[DeepSnow]

light sleety rain here at the moment, and windy. temp now up at 3.1C

[BranMan]

is there anybody out there having a proper snowfall?

and me

[Nevesy]

I think I may have to take a drive to upper Cwmbran as its just rain down here.

[Blackjack]

This has to be the biggest disappointment.

Rain in Merthyr where it usually snows, nothing for back home.

It's all altitude dependant.

BBC and MetO still giving blizzard and heavy snow warnings. Shame they never get it right.

No snow = lots of snow

blizzards = rain
