South West & Central Southern England Regional Discussion 18th Januray 2013>

Morning all.

First post ever for me, have been reading for a few years.

My location is on the Devon / Cornwall boarder and i can happily confirm heavy snow is falling. My drive and car etc is nicely covered. Should be a good sign for members further North and East of me.

At around midnight it was just light rain here, as I say heavy snow now which is settling,

Gareth.

Think its sleety here in axminster, although more snow than rain, its blowing so hard it looks like smoke. Not really settling but our blue car looks like its got something over it. So hope it delivers I told so many people who kept telling me it was too warm to snow that yes it was definitley going to snow.....
