Snow/wintry Precipitation Reports 1st March 2006

[Paul Sherman]

Please post all Snow and Wintry Reports here Please. All non related Snow Reports will be deleted. If you forgot to post yesterday throw the report in here also. Looks like the coasts of Britain will be draped with showers with the majority clear today, Western Parts and Northern Ireland look good also.

Had the briefest of a light snow shower yesterday or should i say flurrie at 5pm.

[Hairy Celt]

Get mine in now before bed. Lots of snow showers this evening, depth now at about 2.5cm, but it's hard to tell cos it's getting blown around so much. Temps wavering between -2C and -1C, RH between 60% and 100%, gusty wind up to 20mph.

Entertaining evening here in Lerwick!

Heavy, squally snow/ hail showers.

Northerly gale 40kts gusting almost 50 kts

Thundersnow!

Currently a hefty snow shower at this time.

Snow depth approx 4cms now although like HC its getting blown around a lot.

Update at 0305 - extremely heavy snow now - blizzard conditions.

3cm of snow has just dropped from the skies over Kenfig hill. Just drove to Bridgend (a very hazardous thing given how it's stuck to the road as well), and it's not really been too bad there given that the roads are reasonably clear of snow.

Just woken up to a winter wonderland! Just over an inch of snow lying and looking at the met office radar, more to come!

[Methuselah]

An inch-or-so of the white stuff overnight...

[Steve mi0dlw]

A few lights showers over night,

no more than 5mm on the ground

[SteveB]

Had a few snow showers overnight which has left a covering of about 1cm.

More snow overnight in Aberdeen. Now a staggering 12 CM lying in the garden. Which means about 4-5cm fell overnight. And more snow as I type this.

Was snowing heavily here for 10 minutes, settled everywhere, doubt will be any more looking at radar, unless the load over wales sneaks a little east and south.

[SteveB]

Another snow shower here in Nailsea, not enough to cover the ground totally though.

[Karen Ann]

Has been snowing here for the last 1/2 hour. Have a dusting. Seems to be easing off now though.

[rob-lancs]

Never snows here in Plymouth so when it does and you actually wake up to see that its stuck is amazing.

.5-1cm laying in the town centre.

[Hebridean]

Frequent Blizzards up here in the Western Isles with 5cm of snow even on the beach.

[tugmistress]

fallen out of my pit to a nice surprise of about 2" of the stuff where the wind has not managed to blow it away

drifted against the back of the house to about 8" now

[Dazza]

A few very light flurries this morning, nothing too heavy as yet but we had an inch or so overnight

[bennytes]

Blizzard conditions here now!

EDIT - stopped now, but more to come by the looks of it!

[Bobby]

Wow. Didn't expect this. A good 2-3 inches here in SE wales and snowing heavily now.

[paulh]

Had a 10 minute snow shower here about 15 minutes ago looking like

its trying to start up again.

[kcin]

heavy snow falling from about 6.30 this morning. stopped now but still a fair bit on the ground.

[Jackfrost]

Magpie, where do you live?

Around 4in here, more than I expected. Frequent, very heavy snow showers coming through... unfortunately there's some very bright sunshine in between, which is melting the snow fast. Schools are closed and everyone's in an "I need bread and milk quick" sort of mood.
