South West and Central Southern England Regional Weather Discussion

The UKV is still showing alot of snow for us all with reasonable depths but the automated forecast shows nothing.

[SteveB]

I think anywhere away from the coast and some elevation will probably be okay. 

At least we've had some rain,  hopefully wash away all the grit that's been put down over the last month or so.

This is a shocking chart. 10c in Bristol according to BBC on Saturday with heavy snow? Utter tosh.

It’s bound to rain in Plymouth. If we barely get anything in Dec 2010 and March 2018 this isn’t going to deliver Jack. 

I'd say chance of snow in Plymouth is about 1% unfortunately

As high as that

Expecting nothing unfortunately, looking like a rain event for this part of the country with some possible sleety mix. Another opportunity on Saturday by the look of it. Hope I’m wrong!!

I wonder if that’s showing an afternoon max temp after snow chance early in the day? With the precipitation graphics all over the show!

[Nights King]

As expected... rain. 

 

Wednesday looks like rain too.

What an absolute waste of a chase. Getting lying snow here is like pulling hens teeth. It’s a by gone era I think. And I don’t know why I bother wasting so much time doing it

[offerman]

Just started snowing here in Froome not particularly heavy but definitely snowing 

moderate sized flakes

[snowysouth]

I never have high expectations since the "it's definitely going to snow" a few years ago and the ppn sat in the channel. Battleground northerlies are a curse here

[Andy Bown]

Wet snow in Warminster, radar from the last half hour suggests it might be developing more and getting heavier.

It didn’t last long, rain now but gives a little hope for tomorrow….

[Glenosnow]

Raining on the way to work with bit's of sleet mixed in 2.5°C......didn't expect anything to be honest,and not expecting much more tomorrow to be honest....maybe a slushy mess.......as I now write we have some wet snow in the mix here at work 🌧

Just woke up to a bare patch ... I live in hope ...

[MrNooo]

A dusting here on the cars buildings etc this morning but the ground less so.

Word of the day, Marginal (at best!)

[festivalking]

Almost 6c here and sunny

[Mark Parsons]

God you lot get the razor blades out.......

[nettie]

Sleet here about an hour ago with big flakes mixed in.  Not holding my breath for anything more , would be nice though to see some falling snow before it turns wet and windy again. 

[*Stormforce~beka*]

Rain beautiful rain!

[festivalking]

Met office doubling down on the snow and ice warning now have expanded the area to include cornwall and suggest more intense snow Wednesday evening. Would suggest the track is still open to change?
