Going to be a lot of disappointment in here tomorrow for anyone living south of Merthyr, 99% of those showers will fizzle out over the mountains and Brecon beacons. There certainly won't be much snow for south wales sadly.

Not sure I agree 100% as ukv etc take into account local topography….where I do agree is that the heaviest showers will be in higher regions a few will get further south …..

You can already see them fizzling out over the beacons on the radar

I think South West wales will do alright but anywhere East of Swansea you can forget any accumulating snow. Seen it happen too many times over the years in this type of setup.

I believe that was forecasted to occur until midnight …they will only make the south in the early hours …i guess we will only know for sure come 7am …..

bbc news both national and Wales had them getting into South East Wales overnight and into the morning - admittedly with the Beacons in the way - they can get sapped by the mountains - but defo some showers will pile through also - meto also have the snow and ice warning right throughout south Wales up to the borders Chepstow way
