Well, unless there's going to be 4 or 5" of snow and it hangs around for a week, I ain't interested!  

You miserable sod LOL

[Jayfromcardiff]

Praying the band of snow hits me soon, going to be close!

[offerman]

Looks like fizzling out before arriving here but it's nice to know other people Have  some

 

I looked at the chance for the coming week if they verify then Thursday looks like a snow fest for everyone as a low comes down from the north and a shallow low forms a daughter low on the southern flank

 

let's hope that verifies and that could be a lot of snow for everyone and stick around for awhile as temperatures look to remain cold until at least January 12 or 13th possibly beyonf that as well

Seems Dundry is doing well on keeping the snow showers going across S Bristol.

Well, you wouldn't want to win £10 million on the lottery only to be told it'll be paid to you £10 a week?!

Snowing here now albeit lightly in South Somerset! pleasant surprise!

[Singularity]

I think there's been a bit of sleet here, hard to tell with the poor quality street lighting in these parts.

Temp edging downward in the NE flow now. That change in direction being what looks to divert the showers across Wales & the Midlands to my west tonight - oh well!

Current temp 1.4C. A sixth near miss of the week means still not seen any falling snow. Honestly, the way any heavier precipitation that might contain a few flakes goes out of its way to avoid this area is laughable:

Crap again.

Temp dropped 2C in under two hours to -0.4C, ready for a night of being dodged by any snow-producing precipitation.

Snowing outside! Took my 5 year old out naked - made her put my coat on lol. We stood on the patio and opened our mouths to catch it and she ate it off the arm of my coat lol

Name and address for social services and cruelty to children please... (Unless of course you were referring to the fact that it was you that was naked), in that case.....no let's no go there, this is a family thread...

Let's hope its correct then,where does it say that too? 

[katemart]

Very light and VERY wet snow now falling in Southampton. Temp 0.3C, DP -1.8C, WB -0.5C.

We are the capital of dull weather here! Everything interesting gets snaffled by the chilterns, cotswolds or downs to the south and we get enveloped in freezing fog instead 

[camturbo]

Was contemplating going carping at the weekend see if I can beat my pb but might wait til spring instead. Still no flakes here 

[katemart]

Repeats of Helen Willets' afternoon forecasts on BBCNews tonight. Wonder who hasn't turned up for the night shift???

We must be in desperate times when a 20min wet snow shower, giving a dusting of no more than 1cm, makes headline local news;

Couldn’t agree more.

[chubbyfan]

a 3rd spell of snow..lighter than lunchtime, settling on all surfaces just about.

[alex12]

Tipping it down here South Somerset must be under a heavy shower!

[Mapantz]

Temperature starting to climb back up here. Always nice to see!

[Evening thunder]

That's this year's snow quota used up!

Or just desperately short of anything newsworthy to be published.

 

Looking at the radar, it'll be March by the time that precipitation to the north gets here, assuming it doesn't wait for a southwesterly to arrive and move northwards...!

[iowpompeylee]

Been tracking this precipitation. Seems to be building and heading Isle of Wight way. Might sink or shrink before it may come this way! May see what it’s like in an hour or so...anybody else is tracking it???
