Wales Cymru Regional Discussion - January 18th 2013, 06z onwards

[J10]

Radar shows some ppn around Fishguard, a bit heavier in Aberyswyth and pounding it down in Caernarfon/Bangor/Ynys Mon.

Dim byd o werth yn unlle arall / Nothing of any worth anywhere else.

(Waiting to be corrected by those in the Swansea area.....)

Showers in Bristol Channel seem to be dying out very quickly as they hit land.

[Gavla]

well sky is grey and got some light snowfall

[David 'Minty' Hill]

Prob it now until monday but wont be able to watch the radar as back in work I would imagine. Do we have a rough time scale on when its all about to kick off.

I don't think they even know if its on as yet, probs have to watch over the weekend.

does that mean we may be on for more

[welshwizard]

does that mean we may be on for more

some are saying that there is a chance of more snow on Monday, but others are saying no snow for us but plenty for London area etc. I myself don't have a clue but will keep checking on the weekend to see what is going to happen

[Penfoel]

Still snowing here, slowed down a little and the flakes now smaller, but a good 2 inches this evening....so far! I didn't think we were due for more!

[keithlucky]

[Matty23]

lol thats all i need to no lol

[welshwizard]

42CM??!! 4 2 C M ?! We need to see pictures haha there must be a mistake

I think that is true as in my area we had lots and lots of snow if you look at my pics from today you can see 14 inches on top of my car and 28 inch drifts,scroll back today and check my posts and it has snowed up there a lot longer than we had down south

[Panayiotis]

Update on the snow potential for Monday/Tuesday: Ive done a map showing where places are likely to see snow (anywhere south and east of the red line) for Monday into Tueday, things can change but this is how the current oulook is developing, accumulations and duration of the snow will probably be clearer tomorrow evening.

^{I can't confirm anything here in Deiniolen about the snow measurement, but 42cm, especially in the drifts seems to be correct - the snow outside is unbelievable. Temperature is currently -2.4°C and we've had nearly 14 hours of heavy snow. Here's some pics that I've stolen from Facebook of the local area. It's sad, that my Grandfather's funeral is suppose to be at 11am tomorrow morning.}

How did u come up with that, why do u think they would miss out. I think its a tough call.

[wastedlife]

here in maerdy we have had just over a foot of snow with some excellent drifts some in side streets over 2 1/2 ft cant wait toget up into mountains tomorrow, even had some mad people travel miles to snowboard here .

[dyl232]

Nice drifts there , 42cm is the lying snow of where has been untouched all day, ie garden walls ,tables etc around 2ft drifts onto walls etc. Quite amazed as im a less than a mile from a coast
