Nope, inches. If I had to err on the side of caution, i'd say nearer 5 inches. It is absolute chaos up here!

Snow storm in Southampton lasted for 35 minutes . We have 2cm lying on ground . The temperature gradient between the two fronts was massive . It dropped 5 degrees in 5 minutes . Unbelievable conditions with beautiful lightning and roads covered in minutes . I have a friend who lives slightly west of me in a place called Dibden . He is reporting to me on the phone Loss of Power ! Temp now 1.3 celsius .

:D

Getting heavier. Is this the third band? Very long shower which hasn't showed up on the radar in terms of intensity and duration.

quote]Reports from Tyneside I can confirm: Newcastle and inland areas are still seeing some good snow, but apparently on the coast, according to my parents, they're now getting driving sleety rain and the snow there is melting!?  

There is no noticeable snow melt here in Gateshead, I would guess the temperature is below freezing, there has been a very light snow shower here for the last 15 minutes which is gradually getting heavier.  

Had two bands of snow, the first last night at 7-9pm and another shorter although heavier period of snow late this morning. Real Blizzard conditions for a time. Going into Newcastle was like driving into a wall of snow.

Gateshead is not on the coast. By "coast", I mean about half a mile from it! It is quite common for Gateshead to have up to three inches of snow, while where my parents live only gets sleet. Sorry if I was ambiguous there, but to me, Gateshead is inland!

Well that was pretty amazing, have just got home in 3 hours, left london at 5pm, Thunder & Lightning at least 4 times, blizzard conditions most of the way, pretty special radar echoes in the London area, amazingly not as much snow back home in essex as in central London.

Well after heavy winds and amazing blizzards, I felt as if I was in a glass cage watching it flying inland, so poor sod (most likely Canterbury) got that lot major... anyway its stopped now an dthe wind is starting to weaken. I think we shall get some more soon but I can see some 10 miles out to see at present although looks like heavy clouds approaching again!

:D
