We need the precip to intensify, every time i look at the radar the precip seems to fragment to the south of us. St Neots for you and Milton Keynes for me.

a covering now in sedgley and gornal.....but drove to tipton and bilston and its not stuck at all due to lower reliet but only a matter of time I would say.

[i love snow]

It's absolutely hammering down here! With nice juicy flakes covering grass slightly now

turning to sleet in telford

Yes, possible. If the snow is heavy enough and long enough what is on the ground just turns to an icey mush which isn't so wet, the snow settles a lot easier then.

Alternatively it falls to freezing - snow obviously has no trouble settling on ice.

Snow here now, quite surprised really due to our lack of elevation

[TootyFruity]

Is it sticking to the pavements there ?

Mozza, you have exact same elevation as me in Sedgley and you posted about Beacon Hill earlier, I reckon you must live on my doorstep! I'm just off Bath Street..

[picog]

Sleety rain at last. Temperature down to 2.0C.

[Summer of 95]

More snow than rain in Shrewsbury now, but very wet- rained for over 8 hours before the wintriness started.

[TootyFruity]

I shall stand outside and give it a dam good blow

Temps should drop further during the night so fingers crossed for you .

Light snow here, starting to settle aswell now!

[Clazzer]

I'm gonna give up for a couple of hours now and see what happens between now & 9 I've been working all day from the dining room table looking through the patio doors into the garden waiting for sleet to turn to snow!
