As a keen fisherman who gardens for a living,its been a bit of a double whammy,rivers over the banks and difficult gardening conditons most of last year,hoping for some dry weather to get out to do both things,gardening has to be done whatever the weather,but fishing rivers in flood although good sometimes is dangerous done on your own for safety.

Please visit forum even if not snowy, Many types of interesting weather to observe and report on

I will definitley still be around, Iv become adicted!

Definitely hoping for a drier and warmer 2013. Although grass growth was good, crops were bad and we had to keep bringing cattle in because they were churning the fields up. Poor for wildlife and my hobbies of wildlife photography, butterfly hunting and bike riding.

Could do with thread for outdoor activities, Fishing very weather orientated, Was bad season for fishing, The hope is have better year, just some dry days would be nice,

Yep but still nice to see considering we weren't meant to see any today.

+1, Am all arable here and it was dire, some wheat never even got cut, ground too wet, autumn drilling a struggle, crops don`t look good for next year, 50% OSR scrap and half the farm going into Spring Barley/Spring Wheat, if it ever dries up enough!!!

[Frosty_wsm]

Chucking it down now and settling, totally unexpected this is!

[bellanite]

a few snow flakes falling from the sky here in Stroud not much though.

[jy]

Yes Cerneman snow melt into the rivers will make things tough,grayling,chub or very desperate pike the only saving grace.

its not setting here

[Wilxy]

Snowing here nice to see a bit before some rain.

[Mumbles]

Well...didn't expect to see any snow today, not here.

[Bumpkin]

Well its snowing here and if it snows here then theres a very good chance that the rest of this region will see something wintery!

[Wilxy]

2.5c here and snowing but the dew point is -1.3°C, getting a little heavier now

[Frosty_wsm]

its not setting here

Isn't here either now, only started to settle in heavy bursts, it's not heavy enough now to pitch.

[fromey]

First flakes here now

[Wilxy]

Light but big flakes of snow coming down now
