Light snow here now as the band slowly progresses west.

Who fancies a walk to the pub at lunchtime?

Regular v small grains falling in Poole, better than Nout!

Nothing showing on the Rain today radar though..... interesting?

Light snow here in central Portsmouth for the last 20 minutes or so, had a slight dusting overnight on top of around 70% of Friday's snow that was still remaining. Temp -0.6, DP -1.7.

its actually been going since about 8 this morning started as snizzle then turned to light snow

[festivalking]

Anyone know the chances of that front slidng down over devon?? Or is that wishful thinking??!!

Sadly wishful thinking there is not enough power in that system to make it this far west and even if it did any snow would be deposited over east dartmoor. Looking a bit forlorn down these parts now for further snow now, appears the tiny low pressures this week are too far south and in addition have too much warmth from the atlantic to bring us snow....well may be where you are! Much snow left up your way?

[khodds]

There are very light snow grains here too, but very light....

[windseeker]

steady light snow here 9-11, easied slightly after 11 but now coming down again. probably max of 3-4 mm in 3 hours

[barlow08]

Moderate snow in ryde

[Lynxus]

Been trying to get out in the snow. But the misses has taken 3 hours so far to get ready !

[wallopweather]

steady light snow since about 10am, bright with the sun breaking through, very nice wintery scenes, may go for a walk on Danbury Hill after lunch

It'll be thawed by the time she's ready! Enjoy the snow my friend!

[rockhopper]

Indeed.

And then this loop, which I find especially useful.

[festivalking]

[somersetwolf]

Thought as much!! Haha!! Still plenty up here... currently -2.5c here, got down to -5c last night, pretty cold!! Its compacted a bit due to the masses coming up yesterday but still a winter wonderland!

[WhiteFox]

It's been a steady fall of small flakes here for a few hours. Looks like surface temperature is above freezing now though as dusting on cars has now melted.

I had this problem yesterday, so I just left, my advice following the backlash I received on my return, is just wait longer

[Severe Siberian icy blast]

Definitely still moving west, and the ppn to our north is moving southwestwards , it's obviously pivoting , but pivoting further west, could be an interesting afternoon.

[lfcdude]

Hope this sun goes away..

It's ok it's still falling, you shouldn't miss it!

[Rustynailer]

We still have light snow on the IOW. V fine though.

We have had the odd flake in the wind here.

Looking at the radars it. On a local level, looks like it fell and is falling more or less like it was forecast to do.

0.1C here just.

LOL.

I may just throw he outside in a minute!

[windseeker]

snow is now getting thicker not sure I would class as light.

Also the system seems to be rotating further south than forecast to my eyes, might be just wishful thinking

[rockhopper]

-0.2 and blue sky showing through the clouds.

[Dean E]

The sun popped out slightly during the snow here in the past 10 minutes, and the temperature has responded by climbing nearly 1c! Now at 0.4c! Just shows how much difference the sun can do! It's disappeared now, just awaiting to see if the temperature will respond

SM

[karlos1983]

0.7C, -2.4C DP, Humidity 88%, Pressure 994mb and falling 0.1mb per hour.

Come on France, do something positive for a change!!! blow Ouest!
