Snowing here. Covering all surfaces. Didn't expect this today!

[ISAAC]

snow enough to settle here.

the 12z is an upgrade IMBY in terms of intensity. it also has picked up on this feature affecting us in the west midlands, could get a cm or 2 from this alone before the big one tomorrow

Yeah, I'm in Tunstall and we have enough here from the last 20 minutes to cover the side roads and pavements. Could be a nice bonus if we get a couple of hours from this and then the main event tomorrow am.

Can I just aggravate everyone by saying the precip that's going to cause all the excitement tomorrow doesn't look like much on the radar out to the west at present!

Still snowing lightly just starting to dust the surfaces-adding to the patchy cover still left from earlier in the week.

True but look back over the last 2 hours you can see it developing. And I'm guessing has to much more yet

[picog]

I think it's meant to slow down and then intensify before bringing us a shedload of snow!

I was thinking that, lets hope it looks better as it hits land

[German John]

Snowing quite moderate at the moment here! slight dusting on top of the ice. Did not expect this tonight before the main course. I'm sure NAE did not show this yesterday?

[nobble]
