Any good sites to keep track of the snow, bit of a n00b here?

net weather radar worth every penny, it's only a couple of pints worth a month

[TimMB]

lol thanks Barry, might have a look though I don't know if my knowledge of the weather is going to justify spending any money!

[weathe20]

you could try www.raintoday.co.uk

but you would still need to subscribe to the premium service to indentify between snow/rain etc...

best bet is the NW radar though

[Pete31]

Bit drizzly now, guess that's it then, ha ha

[Paul T]

It's already green on the nw radar at Williton etc. this means freezing rain right?

Green = sleet

Purple = freezing rain

The max's are progged to be widely +1 by MID DAY across the snow areas I predict so chill about rising temps, it's nothing out of the ordinary!

Thanks mate, might just use that, it's bound to be rain when it reaches me anyway.

Snow getting a tad heavier here now, not just flurries anymore.

Many thanks.. think the snow is from those few small blue echos seen on the met office radar, bit heavier now.

[Tam]

Just started to lightly snow in Bridgwater

North Devon between Okehampton and Holsworthy at 250mASL: just started to drizzle very lightly i.e. rain not snow. Probably to be expected.

[Wynn D Woo]

A few flurries started in Gloucester, temperature steady at 0.1C

'Locations such as Swindon/Cheltenham in particular seem to benefit from the shift W on the 06Z NAE. Looks like the 06Z GFS has also shifted slightly further W.'

[Dartmoor_Matt]

Been snowing here all morning, but nothing of note, tho the ground was sub -9C so it settled straight away. Not holding out much hope when the main warm front comes through, but nice to have had snow around for a week.
