had a dusting throughout the night but has now melted as sleet is coming down current temp 1.8c

Well, what a disappointment.

Its been snowing for twelve hours non stop.......and we've recieved a further 3cm's of wet, wet snow. The problem has been the temperature a degree to high, and the precipitation not heavy enough.

Driving round town this morning its hard to tell the difference between yesterday evening after the day's slight thaw and now, paths and roads that had been trampled on and melted substantially haven't really re-accumulated anything substantial at all.

Undisturbed snow cover has increased by just 1cm overnight (off 12 hours light snow), out of 3cm that has fell, suggesting an ongoing thaw perhaps.

Measurements of undisturbed snow from PT's garden give an average snow depth of 16cm.

Give me heavy overnight 15 minute showers anyday.............

Prolonged snow?............pfffft!

Very dissapointing overnight here in Milton Keynes, from 9PM last night we had nothing but frozen drizzle, which left 2cm of slushy muck on the grass. The last 10Mins have seen the PPN pick up quite a bit though and some proper snow beginning to fall, not sticking to pavements or roads as they are 2 wet but lying on the grass and tree's ect... Hopefully the heavier PPN in the north is going to move south during the day???

[whitewitch]

several inches here on saddleworth moor. still snowing large flakes, settling, not melting. poor visability and very cold.

kids off school. lots of food in the cupboard. everyone playing on the xbox. might open a box of chocolates soon.

[finny]

snowing again east kent, about 5 cm overnight\today

[icy toes]

Been snowing heavily for about 3 hours. Only now is it just starting to settle. Maybe got a cm or two. Please let this snow continue - then we might actually get a decent covering. Sod's law, it'll stop soon and melt away yet again.

[Schnarff]

Hi,

I am near West Bromwich and it has been snowing non stop all morning here (since well before 6am) Covering of about 2-3cms. Very fine snow but falling quite hard at times.

Roads arent the best either

Just started to snow here in North-West London. It is quite light at the moment, but not settling as the ground is too wet. If anything the snow is rather wet....not expecting anything to settle today so at least i have seen some snow...this cold spell has been a big let down...oh well maybe next year..
