I just wish the huge gap in PPn to the north would fill .. I dont want it to start snowing and then stop ( Not like its started yet, but if its snowing north of here and south of here and east of here then it should snow soon surely? )

Also I'm desperate for sleep but brain is just thinking of snow so no chance!

Moderate/heavy snow here now. Settling on grass, rooftops, cars, but melting on roads and pavements. Is the PPN moving faster than expected as I thought the heavy stuff wasn't supposed to hit here until 12.00am?

Well, good luck everyone! :good:

I'll probably stay up until about 01:00... If it's not snowing by then, I think I may as well throw in the towel!

Just popped outside and it's raining currently, but sounds like the surrounding areas are starting to get the wintry stuff...

Hope it arrives here soon!

According to latest tweet from Ian F the colder air is literally a few miles to the East of here :fool:

Don't you love these "marginal" set-ups!!!

Can someone explain to me how exactly its going to be raining/snowing until approx 3am with the speed this is all clearing off?

Looking at the radar, my answer would be it isn't going to, but BBC and MetO seem to think otherwise.

Anyway, that small chunk of intense ppn approaching Gloucester is heading my way by the looks of things. Still rain outside though the cold air just isn't reaching us. I really am not looking forward to driving in the ice tomorrow morning when all this muck freezes over.

It does seem to be pivoting west now but too late for much here i reckon - maybe an hour or two of lightish snow from midnight? I reckon just south of Bath could have a couple of hours of heavier snow

I think those two organisations have lost a lot of credence today - so i wouldn't take much notice of them

Yes,definitely snowing in Wimborne now, but I can't see how it's settling or otherwise, except of the front garden, where it is starting to settle.
