Large flakes of wet snow that haven't settled here between Yeovil and Sherborne. Turning to sleet as I type.

[Chris K]

It's actually starting to turn sleety outside... Temp is now at 0.8c with a dp of -0.4c and still rising very slowly. Really is knife edge here.

[Snowkissed]

Very, very light snow grains here, been falling constantly for about three quatres of an hour.

i went up through wells to priddy and down to cheddar and then got stuck and how to turn around due to my abs brakes !

You got stuck because of the slippy surface I think you will find !

[Bristawl Si]

Still snowing here but fairly light - some surfaces starting to thaw v slowly - guess temp rising slowly and dew points up i would think.

Covering of snow but nothing to write home about.

I suspect we're on the edge here for next few hours - turning to rain/sleet soon maybe?

[fromey]

its chucking down here, nice size flakes, settling well.

Still a brisk SE breeze here helping to keep the colder dryer air in place. It does look like the small circulation suggested by NAE is indeed going to happen and where that tracks will have a big influence on the snow to rain situation

[twister2005]

DP still at -1 here so fingers crossed it stays as snow

[wizenanimal]

got a good covering here now, and its still coming down heavy most of the roads are like a skating rink.

zeals, wiltshire.

[chapmanslade]

Here the 'centre' of the low runs down through Dorset keeping it snow to the east of that track

[twister2005]

good news for glos :-)

[lfcdude]

lovely snow here nice and white out hope it doesent change to rain tonight and keeps snowing

[gloucesterlad]

And a nice dumping from an hour of moderate snow - lighter now though but happy !

that low that runs through dorset needs watching like a hawk if anybody is up at that time of night.

if it gets any deeper it will drag in the cold air from the east putting the snow line back into dorset and east somerset, it would also really perk up the precip.

Has anyone else been looking at the radar over the last half an hour...

The snow line is moving back west... It was to the east of Bristol, now it's to the west!

[David-kig]

Nice covering here in wincanton, good 2cm for sure

[kevvo]

An afternoon of rain with a hint of sleet..............and that's being generous.

[Frosty_wsm]

Both ukmo and gfs have us in a cold easterly flow again by the middle of next week with cold uppers! Deja vu springs to mind!

[Chris K]

1c and dp of 0.0c still rising very slowly. Won't be long I fear before it starts raining for my area at least.

I share your pain Weymouth likely to win the 'green' award...again

[Nights King]

Steady snow up at home and boy was that a hard drive as you climb up! A37 getting quite snowy.

[sherrie]

you are lucky we didnt even get the sleet I cant believe its still so cold, I thought it was supposed to get milder as the rain arrived? I just wish I could go away and stop looking because I know all the reports on the forums are only going to make me more depressed as the night goes on.

[BristolBlizzard]

I'm confused, there's a big band of precipitation coming our way. Is that going to fall as rain/sleet?

Apparantly there's reports of snow in the West Midlands. Is it going to extremely marginal?

[Andy Pepler]

still snowing like buggery down here ..its now pitching on the roads..thought this was ment to turn to rain by now :o

temp holding steady at -0.5

[theprophecyman]

still snowing in frome, but not that heavy. Nice covering in the garden though

Any ideas when this is "meant" to turn to rain??
