Wales Cymru Cold Spell Discussion

[NiikAURA]

had about 3 inch of snow here in north wales 2day, is that the end of it ? or more to come??

If you're on the north coast, quite possibly yes.

[mrmonopoly]

Hmm, this cold spell isn't good for us then, as we haven't seen even 2cm of lying snow yet! but most places around us seem to be doing good. Not all to happy about it but nothing i can do apart from hope, which i am losing fast well i guess a light dusting would be better than nothing. if we even get that.

Yeah true, lol well wont get me hopes up any more for tonight then!

Talk about luck tho down the western side, must be awsome being there. I think if I want snow from now on I move to Canada

[DeepSnow]

Never know though, it's set to effect Cardiff, to barry but i reckon it could effect Bridgend as it's not that far away.

that would be nice i think we should get atleast maybe some sort of covering of maybe an inch? still not expecting anything tho now atm.

Just been on Met office site and they have increased the warning for tomoz for the whole of wales, and on the rain fall chart it looks like maybe as far west as Neath could get a bit of snow??

[Marcus_surfer]

According to the latest radar, looks like Swansea is now in a snow shield and there will be no further snowfall tonight

Haha amazing weather here..

We're up to around 8 inches here at the moment, keep it comin'!

sure is amazing. Had another 3 inches early this morning, and another 7-8 inches this afternoon. Some of the drifts are very very deep now. I got stuck in my Nissan Navara 2.5 litre diesel for the first time earlier. Neighbour in his tractor had to pull me out of a drift, all ood fun. Although we have had 2 power cuts, but got plenty of chopped logs and fuel for the generator.

[Wosser]

I have 17mm of snow forecast for my location tommorow can that be right ?

[J10]

For tonight every chance that all of Wales will see some snow from different direction.

After all today's front was meant to be rain, sleet and Snow with no settling in the west.

Alot of the advisories over south wales at the mo are for icy conditions rather than snow - but, the wrap around snow that will come down from the midlands hasn't totally been nailed as to how far west it'll get yet so just keep your eyes on the radar!

When people start talking about the "coldest winter in 100 years" yet you get a few showers that mainly melt away ,or in some cases hardly anything at all , it must be very annoying.

Yeah the roads are really deadly now, I wouldn't even dare going outside to drive in it.

The scary part is that it looks as if we're only half way through the band, it seems to be pivoting right over this area as it's moving south.

At this rate, we could possibly see a foot of snow O_o

cardiff again will miss out ,i can,t see us getting any as usual,

[Avain]

Ian Fergusons post in This thread seems to show the band of ppn currently over the Isle of Wight region sweeping up and back into south wales with a ton of snow, tomorrow could be very different, Pembs could equally get a lot from the western flank.

If we miss the band over n wales the lighter snow over telford should give us some snow you right jack one, then there always the LP chance of reaching s wales snow early hrs.

No actualy Cardiff eastwards is looking good for snow

[Jayfromcardiff]

NO they won't, if you watch BBC weather you will see snow is over us for a good 7 hours at least.

Excuse me asking jack one whats NNm short rage showing for wales?

[J10]

NMM Has snow effecting all parts of Wales in the next 24 hrs. But quite wide variation, we get 2-3mm here, 13mm in parts of east. With snow quite widely from the semi circle of cloud currently over Wales, and then later from the LP edging into the SE.

[andymusic]

The wrap around snow is already making in roads back into Monmouth and Hereford and there's plenty more of the slow moving snow stacked in the midlands coming our way!

[keithlucky]

Thanks.

[Wales123098]

Very cloudy here and snow is just reaching into the east now.

[impster]

seems to be easing off a little in machynlleth now.
