I knew that was going to be the case just didnt want to be in the miss zone however things could change so I wont write nothing off yet.

Lol, i knew i was in the miss zone as soon as i heard northerly haha.

Snowing moderately here too, and settled a bit, bit could do with this now getting a bit heavier.

This seems like swansea shall do well and i will largerly miss out because im a little to far north in this kind of gap :/ could well be the first time a setup like this hasnt truly delivered for me here, had a dusting earlier which thawed but thats nothign in reality.

Glanaman is overall directly north of Swansea inland, so the shower activity is just to your west, i think it will clip you later

Yes i know, i always use Swansea as a marking point glanaman is some ide say 19 miles inland of Swansea but you seem to be in the lucky spot tonight i must say, good like to you, Who are we ?

Streamer bit to far West for me here in Morriston, however it looks like its progressing slowly eastwards- Stuff further north should effect here later.

Seems Vancouver in Canada is having a problem with snow production - they're a bit concerned cause they got the winter olympics on the 13th Feb - well they're welcome to relocate to Wales if they like - we got the Graigerhorn in Ponty for the bob sleigh and luge - I'm sure we can use brecon for the downhill events and slalom - and mid wales would be great for the cross country and biathlon events! - Come over to Wales if your stuck for snow - apparently the jet stream is missing over there - holidaying in hawaii or something like that!

Indeed does look as if the precipitation is edging further east, which is needed as the main band is only a few miles west of here as it pushes south.

This could go on for a while tonight.

not getting me hopes up - already had and seen plenty of snow now this winter - 3ft drifts at times - anything else now will be a bonus before I get the barbie out for the glorious summer we are supposed to be having this year

ANDY,,,,, are you Ken? only getting Barbie out made me wonder????

you're using that reverse psychology stuff again ain't you!

[andymusic]

nice one ali - you got your snow wishing fingers crossed?

[welshwizard]

Hi all had a couple of showers here,started at about 3 ish (hail) and had about 3 small showers of snow but not a lot but cant moan better than rain. but it does look like some of them showers in the north may come down my way.if not maybe tomor.

Starting to settle on pavements, grass and roofs of sheds now

Nice, i could have this weather all winter IMO it's great, even BBC didn't expect these showers to get far inland and they have.

[Cymro]

Mae'n bwrw eira fan hyn boed yn ysgafn

[MartUK]

Evening all how are things

[Marcus_surfer]

Big flakes here now, i expect about 1-2cm tonight

[liamcymro]

Really heavy snow showers here now - everything nice and white - Currently -1C

[Snowmadsam]

any snow expected on the carmarthenshire pembrokshire border tonight?

[Cymro]

Snowing quite moderate here now needs to get heavier to have any significant accumilation

[keithlucky]

love the way the met office have all of a sudden they upgraded the warnings for wales all of a sudden, we are a step ahead of them lol, upgraded the amount of snow for the next 2days.

Easing off here now left a dusting but i suspect it will thaw tbh.

I'm actually hopeful for a shower or two now by looking at the radar.

[Marcus_surfer]

Changing between hail and snow here, the hail melting though. Quite heavy though
