Good news

Light Snow here at present

Even better news!

[tom_f123]

Very light snow here atm, a touch sleety due to it being weak in intensity.

[BlueHedgehog074]

I'm not making this up, but it is actually trying to snow, although a bit on the sleety side at the moment.

Edit: Seems like others are getting some too.

Just look at the beast off the west coast of Wales, intensifying every minute! That is what the warning is out for.

Continued light snow here, nothing settling though of course.

Idk! i dont think we will do so well here! im expecting rain

The warm front has died out but we will bet some snow this afternoon , the ppn will drop the temp not that it really needs dropping , stop worrying , its only turning milder once the front this afternoon has gone

[Convection currents]

Just started snowing lightly here

[valiant]

Just started to snow in Stoke, the first band is being absorbed by the second, not sure about settling amounts but the METO look to have issued the warning based on the PPN developing and the NAE model.

Just started here too. Big wet flakes.

[andy_leics22]

Where is the snow that the BBC promised for Leicester this morning?

[PolarWarsaw]

Graupel and sleety flakes coming down now interspersed with what looks to be drizzly rain.

[camperstron]

We've had a few light flakey episodes this afternoon. For about a minute there were a few big flakes. And then it stopped
