The temperature is certainly going the right way...

Thanks GP. I think this is what Google uses. Snowing pretty hard!

[snowwonder]

I'd love to know what part of Luton you are in? as its raining here with a few flakes mixed in. I'm in Barton Hills.

EDIT: few more flakes now but still a lot of rain out there, dew point still at 1c and temp 2c

Hi Im right next to Luton airport so a bit higher up, which makes a big difference. Not settling yet though. Fingers crossed.

[Stevieray1]

Snowing fairly heavy but why did the ground have to be so wet

I was thinking the same! Thinking about collecting it up and chucking it back out later??!

[john mac]

Temp now 1.3c

Dewpoint 1c

Light rain here currently. Did turn a bit sleety about half an hour ago during a heavier burst but I'm certainly not in the best position to see snow. Latest Met Office forecast has sleet at best for me overnight.

[snowrye]

Turning a bit Sleety now,so going in the right direction

[Snow Run]

Murr Scale Level 8 snow now being driven along on a freshening south-easterly - but not settling (yet).

0- Nothing / Nada / just curtain dust + flies around the outside light

1- Odd pellet here & there- however we can mentally confirm there are 'flakes'

2- visible light snow falling- not visible to the lampost yet ( unless you stand underneath & obscure the light)

3- flurry level- makes light blue on the radar & a few flakes seen across the lampost

4- we can confirm snow falling without staring at the light- Can confirm to friends & loved ones its snowing via text etc

5- Status 2- moderate flurry, its fine snow at the moment still- it looks quite hard in terms of snow falling however its not amounting to anything

6- proper flakes falling- you will see them now- the odd flake mixed in with the moderate fine snow

7- transition to normal flakes all complete- moderate snow outside

8- 20p flakes going at a steady pace now- accumulating around 0.5cm - 1cm per hour

9- heavy 20p Snow - visibly accumulating + 1cm per hour

10- entry level heavy snow arriving- 50p flakes fluttering in the 20p flakes.. awaiting the beast...

11- 50p flakes nearly transitioned over- we can call it heavy settling snow 2cm ++ per hour

12- Very heavy snow inch per hour all 50p flakes

13- Blizzard- combined with +40 MPH wind-

[steveinsussex]

Looks like front is pushing through though?? Pivoting further north than expected?? All be over before it gets dark here...???

[TheGate]

Dropped quickly here to 0.8c and snow is heavy and being blown around

[stewfox]

In space of 3/5 mins it went from rain to sleet mix now just wet snow amazing 'cant hear' it on the slanting windows
