Snowing on M3 after fleet

[jethro]

It's snowing here, only tiny flakes but it's steady, not flurries.

[lfcdude]

Snowing.. Flurry but its snow

[Mumbles]

Few small flakes of snow in the wind...

[Karl83]

Snowing here.

[TwisterGirl81]

Morning! What are the chances of snow this weekend for us in the southwest ie Exeter please

Edited March 25, 2013 by TwisterGirl81

[AWD]

Snowflakes blowing around in the breeze here. Very cold out.

[Frosty_wsm]

Few flakes blowing around in the wind here too.

[offerman]

Yep, snowing here to, small flakes but steady.

[Nights King]

_{Where has our snow for the end of the week gone? cold and light snow in air.}

[Bumpkin]

I had a couple of microscopic snow grains on the car windscreen this morning, not sure that counts . Currently 0.2c with dp -6c

[jessandjon]

2c here dull and windy!!

[offerman]

slightly heavier snow than earlier

[jethro]

There looks to be a band of activity heading South in our direction, not too sure if it will carry on down the country or break up as it goes. It's still steady but light snow here, according to the radar we're just on the fringes of the band so perhaps it will get heavier as it passes over???? Nothing behind though so probably won't amount to much.

[TwisterGirl81]

Whats the betting that snow peters out before it gets to Exeter! LOL I'd have to laugh else i'll cry ha ha

[offerman]

twister, thought the same about it hitting frome, its snowing here but the main band hasn`t reached and when you look at the runs on rain today it kind of evaporates before it gets to us. it might pep up on back edge which might be enough to send it here and your way

[SNOW CRYSTAL]

Breezy and dry here this morning, feeling pretty cold in the wind. Sounds like our chances for the end of the week are deminishing with each run. Would love to be proved wrong though!!!

[offerman]

Snow Crystal, not so sure about that, read the link and the met office warnings they say are in place although i saw no yeloow warnings this morning on Met O site.

It means a cold weather alert, of which we do have a yellow one.

[Bumpkin]

Just been out with the dogs and my word thats bitter. Small baby flakes blowing around in the wind which has now pepped up now I'm back in the house. I caught a reflection of myself in the door when I went out and realised that any fashion sense (probably very little) just goes out of the window in this weather. I have to say I looked remarkably special in my purple muckboots, black jeans, long knitted jumper, my most amazing padded patchwork jacket, a checked furry trapper hat and knitted capped gloves Temp up to a heady 0.7c

[Beast of Plympton]

Still a fair bit of snow IMBY forecast for the end of the week according to GFS.... I wonder if this will stay that way?? I take it with a pinch of salt this far out....

For those who love chasing snow charts from 5-7 days away, here is one for you! lol

[noggin]

So much potential, but so little snow.

We had nice snow in January and I thought I'd be satisfied for Winter with that. But I'm ashamed to say that I'm not!

It is frustrating that "others" get huge amounts and yet any potential that we get, such as the end of this week, just seems to fizzle away, the nearer we get to it. I know we haven't yet reached the end of the week, but going on past experience I bet any snow goes elsewhere.

Gosh, what a miserable old bag I am today!

W COUNTRY Threat of disruptive snow by Fri-Sat thankfully reduced, albeit still uncertain... @metoffice currently gives it 20% probability.

Such a shame our chances are once again vanishing before our eyes... Really is a awful winter for us please please please just give us a snow event and then bring on ther mild I have had enough of cold grey days with nothing positive snow wise.
