Well still heavy snow here, nealy 7and half hour of it! Will it get any heavier? lol the street road is completely white, even with the car tracks just about as not many driving now, when i looked out the back a while ago, notices all the plants are squashed under the weight of the snow lol. Im amazed how long we have had snow like this for, and that it looks to keep going maybe till the morning? when is it suppose to stop? I love this weather

You should be getting a little more snow - heavier precip as the night wears on

I always like your optimisim Andy. Hoping it gets heavy soon. Its whispy snow at the moment.

yes I'm in Manselton ... more snow than sleet at the moment and we have a fair covering but hearing that uplands has very little and pontardulais and llanelli has next to nothing

NEWS24 has a reporter in Devon of all places and they are really concerned about Exeter - but hardly a mention about Wales - more concerned with the English I'm afraid!

Im guessing its been snowing there longer so its worse? but yes,im sure when sky tv are sending there reporters here there and everywhere that the valleys is the short straw, so they just give it a miss.

For every inch in Basingstoke or London you need at least thrice that in Wales to merit a reporter visit.

Lampost still showing very fine stuff...... could be nearing the end!!! of snow .

It's snow on the sky dish. If you can reach with a brush make sure you get it off the bit that pokes out the front facing the dish. Will work then....

That requires a venture oustide, and im quite enjoying having no tv and feeling cut off from the outside world...... "are you watching Aviemore!! "
