What app is that Karl if you don't mind me asking?

Hi khodds, its Blitzortung Lightning Detector.

 

You can set alarms so that it alerts you when storms are close. Very handy!

[SteveB]

That would be rain then, hopefully turn to snow soon.

[Frosty_wsm]

99% rain, 1% sleet I'd say, we had more wintry showers earlier on than compared to now.

[Bristawl Si]

Just stepped out the back door and it doesnt feel that cold to be honest.

Sorry, no weather station here at Chez BB

[The Enforcer]

All showers have been of rain so far. Temperature stuck at 3.2C at 730pm and 8pm.

[Zephyr]

Everyone in Bristol Area and South Glous please place your fridge freezers outside open them up and make sure they are plugged in and turn your heating off lets get the air temp down!

 

disclaimer don't really do this it could blow up!

[AWD]

Heavy snow at Bristol Airport!

Thanks Karl

A very sleety/maybe verging on snow mix during that last shower... Didn't see much of it, hence my vague description!

[Bristawl Si]

Sleet here now.

From stillness to v windy in a few mins.

Squall line coming in possibly?

[khodds]

Sleet here too with some big flakes mixed in

[kumquat]

Started as rain but turning!

[Mapantz]

That looks badass coming in to Cornwall! Lot's of sferics in conjunction with it..

Snowing here again although not heavy. I can't work out where those streams of showers are heading. Think we may just have to wait a few hours before areas start seeing real snow?

[Bristawl Si]

More wet snow mixed in now.

[Valhalla]

I am sat in the Brislington no snow zone, waiting no so patiently

Bear with me, I maybe able to help!

[Wilxy]

Rain with a slight sleet mix at best!

[MP-R]

Could have sworn I saw lightning out west not too long ago.

[Zephyr]

Sleet here! Heavy sleet also with more snow than rain

[William Grimsley]

Hello guys, I'm back again! Just had some wet snow here and saw some lightning to the west earlier on. At least I saw something but temperature too high for anything to settle tonight me thinks. What do people think on my chances?

[skyblupoo]

yep, just saw a couple of flashes there too

[Charlton Adam snow]

Snowing, fairly light, but some larger flakes mixed in! Looks like we're just too far south (I'm 3 miles east of Somerton) from a cloudy area. Feels much colder now- temp dropped to just 1.6c

Let's hope we see some big showers in the early hours - first snow here for 2 years, so nice to see it again!! Good luck all!!

[kaisegeberger]

Snowing lightly here in Uley at 130m, S. Cotswolds.

Keep an eye out on that shower alignment to your west looks quite nasty could even end up with some thunder if it carry's on.
