Really heavy rain shower just, perhaps a hint of sleet mixed in.

[Staffordshire]

Fully snow now and sticking on car, big flakes too

[fourseasons]

Fully snow now and sticking on car, big flakes too

That means perhaps it may turn to snow here soon ? We'll see.

[Staffordshire]

That means perhaps it may turn to snow here soon ? We'll see.

was very wet here before though so may take heavy ppn to stick, will more than likely melt when it stops

[Wadey]

Any snow yet anywhere ?

[conor123]

Some wet snow mixed in the rain here in the land of Telf.

[Polar Low]

Sleet shower here, strong gusts.

Checking the latest radar runs, the flow is now much more NW'ly.

[i love snow]

Heavy snow shower here now! And very gusty

[Polar Low]

First true snow shower of the night underway here, radar looks OK.

[marksp]

finaly snow made it here, temps were 5 at 11pm by midnight dropped to 3 and noe at 0.2, with heavy snow, horizonal at times.

just need to stop in a train of showers so that it accumalates.

roads, cars and grass white over after two showers lasting 20mins.

[Midlands Ice Age]

Snow shower here, lasting about 20 mins. Left a covering of snow on exposed wind facing surfaces.

First time I have seen snow from a WSW Force 6.

Who says now that we will never get snow again from the Atlantic?

For me this is a first in 68 years of weather watching in this area.so it must mean something.

MIA

[FENDER.]

Isnt the wind direction WNW

[Polar Low]

FINALLY.

Closest thing I've seen to a blizzard here in Newark, in my 21 years. Looks as though a streamer MAY have found our sweet spot. Next few radar runs are crucial like.... everything turning white.

[Gord]

Covering of snow here this morning.

[Terminal Moraine]

Covering of snow here this morning.

Same here but not much; perhaps a cm ( based on looking from the window!)

[Polar Low]

Heavy snow continuing here, radar looking pretty good for next hour- maybe 2, streamer type setup here.

[Supacell]

Some light snow just started here in Belper.
