Some very light snow showers here in North Powys.....which is a good sign, as they were all rain here last night! ...very very windy and squally though!
Beautiful scenes there snefnug, we only have about 3 to 4 inches here, but it is gone very wet, and we had a bout an hour of freeing rain earlier. quite low down though here.
Just driven through Shrewsbury bout half hour ago; very heavy snowfall on the western edge of town, with about a couple of centimeters lying. just drizzle here 15 mile northwest of Shrews.
We have had light rain for about an hour here now, 15 miles NW of Shrewsbury and our 3/4cm has been melting quite fast; it has reduced in depth by to about 1 to 1.5cm on most surfaces, and completely gone off roads and pavements!
smaller flakes here now in east wales, and seems much wetter now too. the snow on the road has melted and big puddles are appearing. the snow cover elsewhere is not getting any deeper...i suspect it is melting faster than the rate it is falling! i think the end is in sight for here now. Am sure you than many of you guys in the mids will get a few centimeters from this afternoon though. Good luck folk
low lying areas of south Wales now reporting sleet and rain, stil snow further north. i think you guys in the mids will do better the further north and west you are.
I had huge flakes bout 15 mins ago, now much smaller but stil very heavy.....so dont dispare, you might have several hours of snow yet.
Bout 2cm here now.
stopped here now in northeast powys, in the 'gap' just waiting for the heavier stuff coming off the Irish sea! hope the covering doesnt melt before then!
