Rain

[BleakMidwinter]

It is starting to settle in Sth Suburban Embra, despite the ground being sodden, the forecasts being for no snow, and big puddles of previous rain all over! KB weather stn says 0.5C which is the coldest it's been for a while...

[Ross Andrew Hemphill]

Too far BUS

Think BUS is getting shouted at. His comment has disappeared.

[JoeShmoe]

Its started to Snow here, in Edinburgh, at low level !

 

very wet though

[LomondSnowstorm]

Amazing - starting to lie here! Still rather wet on the roads and slushy on the pavements but the roofs and tables are turning increasingly white.

950s are clearly being brough down by the intensity of the precipitation - just slighlty above snow levels at face value but with low surface pressure things have definitely turned the right side of marginal with a very slight amount of altitude.

[tempestwatch]

Snowing here now, woohoo!

[JoeShmoe]

Check out the Embra bypass

Now turned to heavy driving sleet

But top of Helensburgh now reporting heavy wet lying snow.

Miserable conditions ...temp down to 1.5 c and winds gusting to almost 45km/h

[Jambo Fowler]

Snowing perth

[Benvironment]

Best snow this winter!  1cm already and blowing onto the vertical surfaces.  Down to 0.2C.

[spindrift1980]

Snow has gone off in EK, but 1-2cm of snow cover.  Not exactly an epic snowfall, but a pleasant surprise!

[Ross Andrew Hemphill]

Radar shows precipitation over here and nothing is falling. Why?

Look out the window to find snow landed across the Clyde. Now I'm mad!

[Buriedundersnow]

GFS 500mb analogues pointing toward high pressure being around later in the month but obviously will depend on where it takes up home as to how cold it will get but at least it might start to get dryer

OH my just got the fright of my life 10 mins ago....really loud thunder and bright flash. Sounded like a jet flying really low really fast above me!!! Was to busy reading, kids thought it was funny! x

[tiff]

Really heavy snow here and its lying Lost the Sky signal though, so hope it continues so I can watch it out the window.

[TinyTim]

Finally!!!! Have waited pretty much all winter, so finally some snow!!!!

 

Not epic by any means, but it's white stuff falling and lying (for now!) so I'll have to settle for that
