Lets hope it's better than this mornings snow, lets have one final farewell before the atlantic hits us later on this week.

[Ginkrots]

Yes it's as intense as Friday but it won't last as long so accumulations will be low here in Newport..

.....for January, February looks v.interesting!

[ourson]

Light to moderate in my patch at the moment. Starting to stick to cars and the patio despite the earlier thaw. Would like heavier now, please, just to make sure that the kids get another snow day tomorrow.

Hoping to get the sledge out again in the morning, but have to take a child with me. Looks a bit odd without one!

[soupsurfer7]

Just been to the shop. The pavements had cleared nicely today in the thaw but now they are very slippery again, take care out there if you're in Cardiff.

I dont think so its going to be here all night! Since the last car passed over the road about 20min ago the tracks are already accumulating with snow again! Edited January 22, 2013 by Panayiotis

[John Lloyd]

Snowing heavily enough to begin to cover the road outside.

[Cymro]

The band is heading ever more west, perhaps those from Pont Abraham Eastwards could catch a glimps of this snow?

Agree!

If this was a regular rain event, i would be looking at this as pretty significant and persistent for my location.

I hope you're right.

There are reports of light snow in Bristol though! We will have to wait and see what happens with the band

[goosey007]

what makes u think it wont last as long? Its due to stay heavy in newport until 3am thats a good 7 hours ....last friday was 5am until 10am so its got to be at least on a par with friday....think we are looking at quicker thaw tho

[Panayiotis]

I hope you're right.

Im sorry its just south of Bristol, expect more people in that region to be reporting heavy snow soon!

It's meant to stall and pivot over us but the forecasts are just predictions. It could do that but 40 miles to the west and we could then miss out.

In general though, forecasters are not confident about any possibility so it's just watch the radar and see where the PPN goes

[Herefordweather]

Heavy snow, Hereford.

[Baldy Snowman]

moderate here

not sticking at all

There's been heavy snow on the Mendips in somerset, to the south of Bristol and heavy stuff to the south and south west of Bath.

Here in North Bristol, near the M4/M5 interchange, it's been mainly moderate snow with some heavier bursts, although at mo quite light.

The snow has v high water content, so guess dew points are v marginal. Settled here to around 2-3 cm but v slushy in parts.

Guess the higher parts, Mendips, etc better quality snow.

Regards BB

Think we will have the 10cm in the Amber zone. It's coming down fast and can't see it stopping for many hours.

[keithlucky]

Steady snow now falling in Swansea

[Ginkrots]

Barely a dusting here, about 1/2 a cm lol and it's been snowing for 1 + 1/2 hours. I will see what the rest of the night brings though..

[Panayiotis]

Steady snow now falling in Swansea

Glad you got some Keith!

[snowman1000]

pushed more west than they forcast

[SnowStorm(Jamie)]

Good to see some people in that SE corner of Wales getting snow judging by reports it seems to be falling to also quite low levels to which makes sense given the fact dew points are low and falling still.

Chance for a good few more cm in SE Wales where the front is forecast to gradually die away by tomorrow morning:

Here in Swansea seems as if i'm a bit to far West right on the western edge of the band, one to keep an eye on though as is it may just edge far enough west to produce a slushy covering even here.

Higher parts will have more IMO, lower down 10cm bit of elevation and 15cm i think.
