Think it’s made landfall here ?
It's trying to here as well, here's hoping that light snow to the east meets the heavier to the west and it explodes into some kind of George Clooney film.

Isnt the stuff over the Irish Sea anaprop?
Not sure but I suspect the Irish sea is just reinvigorating the front. Looks pretty intense. Probably contributing to Irelands red warning.
-
That stuff over the Irish sea really is a big tease, it does seem to be back building in our direction though.

I'm snowed under with depression from the lack of it
hah.
I feel your pain, we also had the halo of nothingness, although we did get the wind and power outages
-
Yay power back on, after 4 hours of freezing my nips off.
Despite being in a snowless bubble the entire evening, somehow we still have one foot drifts outside.
Looks like some parts of Wales are buried
-
Lights flickering in the strong wind here,
next to no snow though.
-
This wind is something else, hard to believe it's supposed to get stronger.
-
The black holes of nothingness are slowly filling in on the radar. Hoping for a least a bit of snow to replace what was whipped away by a fleeting snow devil earlier.

OMG can someone with blue crayons fill in the gap over west Wales please
-
Lots of conflicting weather forecasts for west Wales, just checked Meto, who has Aber down for zilch snow for the next 48 hours....

I've been trying to stay positive but all the high red models show it. Met Office graphics show it (though their automated forecast does show snow now)...
BBC website graphics even show it! I find it quite hilarious but I'm going to be disappointed at the same time
It's amazing, isn't it. That gap has been ever present in the models for days, consistent and annoyingly impressive. Hope it's wrong.

I think it's an indication of how atrocious previous winters have been when a few flurries have turned this winter into a good one, IMO. Minie blizzards here, but very little on the ground.

West Wales getting one hell of a battering with winds over 70 mph pretty much north to south, pretty gusty here too
Yep, I'm surprised by the ferocity of the gusts here. Took a jaunt into a nearby field earlier, breathtaking, literally!
-
I wonder if any delay (?) transitioning from a hurricane to post-tropical cyclone might actually reduce the size of the wind field. I'm no expert but a google search brings up some interesting results. Maybe there's still some significant doubt at the met-office regarding widespread damaging gusts.

Sprites?
I wouldn't know mate, has been going on for about 30 mins now, sometime before the Swansea cells started to kick off

that'll be the cells around swansea i expect
Wow they must have some seriously high tops then

Really spooky distant lightning to the south still. Managed to get a screen grab. Doesn't seem to originate from anything on radar.

Still more distant flashes to the south of me but nothing on the radar, fascinating stuff
-
That's weird, our little storm has passed to the north but can still make out distant lightning to the south (nothing on radar??).
Could it be elevated, zero precipitation lightning?
-
Lightning seen!

Even if nothing comes of it, we're getting treated to some wonderful clouds today - really is a treat!
Great pic there.

The back building of the storm near Falmouth is quite amazing, doesn't look close to finishing either.
