[Thundery wintry showers]

There's been a heavy snow shower over the South Shields/Cleadon/Sunderland area, which left a little dusting according to Neil Bradshaw's webcam.

Wet sleety snow now falling in Norwich- a precursor of a snowy night to come perhaps?

[Koppite]

Very heavy snow shower just started here, not sticking at present.

[kar999]

Heavy snow shower here. Light grains.

[mountain shadow]

Heavy snow shower. Medium flakes, blowing around in gusty wind. No accumulation.

[Neilsouth]

Heavy Hail now heavy snow

[Magadan]

Moderate snow shower here 3 hours ago (only posting it now), lying on ground, cars, etc. Nothing to write home about, but the roads are white with it.

[Guest]

Heavy graupel here earlier leaving a covering in the shade all day

[NL]

Horizontal heavy blizzard-like snow now/still falling in South Shields. Has been snowing heavy for about 45minutes and just over an inch has accumulated and more to come..!!! looks likely to be some serious disruption tomorrow.

[Beverley Lass]

Morning all,

Woken to an overall covering of snow.

Just a dusting really.

-1.8*C as I type and still.

BL. :lol:

[wchris_uk]

woken up to a slight covering here wernt expecting anything!

[grab my graupel]

Had around 1cm of snow lastnight, and there were one or two flurries this morning

[ScottSnow]

Around 2-3 inches here and have heard reports that near the coast in places like Sunderland and South Shields there is around 10 inches.

The snow is not really melting and will be here tomorrow so we will have had snowcover on the ground for around 2/3rds of this month.

A remarkable winter so far.

10cm by the coast, not 10 inches.

7cm here today from overnight snow, slight thaw in the sun but nothing significant. The snow is powdery.

[Thundery wintry showers]

I have seen reports of 14-16cm locally by the coast, so more than 10cm, but at the same time well short of 10 inches. My parents reported 9 inch drifts this morning though, which is believable as the wind certainly drifted the snow quite appreciably.
