South West & Central Southern England - Weather Chat

[Mapantz]

A few sleety-splats on the porch roof at the moment, mainly rain though.

[Bristawl Si]

Central Bristol seems to be in a 'dark clouds-only' segment at the mo.

How the hell is the coast colder than up here?! LOL - 4.2c still

 

I nose, and quite a lot cooler than Oxon, too. From a WSW breeze. It's bizarre! 

 

2.3C, 0.8dp.

Snow    - At 3.3*C as well, so unlikely to stick.

YAY! Grats mate!!x

THERE'S A YELLOW WARNING OUT FOR SOMERSET AND THE SOUTH WEST FROM THE MET OFFICE.............

[Zephyr]

Snowing in Yate!!! 

[Polar Bear]

Ooh look dark clouds here again with rain. We do get all the fun.

WTF??!!!

[Gas Ed]

Sleet in NW Bristol. Mainly cold icy rain with a few flakes thrown in for good measure. Temp 3.1 and can now see a clearance to the cloud.

Hopefully a couple of hours of clear skies to enjoy the hot tub after dark (before the sleet returns overnight from this secondary low!). Gert lush!

[A.J]

WTF??!!!

that's for devon & cornwall and the far SW of somerset......most of somerset & further east and north of our region (wilts/gloucs/hants/Berks etc are under warning for snow and ice)

just to add....the current conditions here are as follows:

 

 

It's Snowing!

That just hit Didcot too

Nice to see it falling. I support an older man and he just went "OH IT'S SNOWING, I HATE SNOW!" Didn't have the heart to tell him that I love the stuff

The temp is 3.3c now? How much has it dropped since 1pm?

[festivalking]

Yay!!! a 2 minute snow shower here. Sun shining now, but nice to see. Best snow shower for 2 years!!

 

Brilliant news! Very jealous I missed it! Did much settle?

[WestSussexSnow]

Had a very heavy hail shower in Littlehampton, now it's turned decidedly colder! Here's hoping!

[Snow_Fan_Man]

Slowly but surely getting more and more depressed. Will Bournemouth EVER get any snow? Sick and tired of not having snow - lived here for 4 years and not seen a single CM lying on the ground. Half tempted to move back to Cheshire just to see some of the bloody elusive stuff!

[Mapantz]

There's all of us looking at precipitation charts and we didn't give the wind a chance!

[Polar Bear]

Ooh I get the feeling Newbury has offended the snow... Radar grab clearly shows we are being avoided like the plague. Meanwhile some 10 miles up the road and in Oxon.... Pink radar and White stuff! Lol

[Nights King]

Not sure I like ians tweet saying less chance of snow mendips and southwards 

[Frosty_wsm]

Woohoo, snowing here

As they say;

What was never expected in the first place can't disappoint when it fails to materialise.

[WestSussexSnow]

Sleety rain here now! If we can get a few flakes on the coast, anyone can!

[Dale Hay]

Finally, snow is starting to fall in Weston-super-Mare ... *yay*

Only lightly and small flakes, but still... it's snow. (Also I don't see it sticking as the ground is a bit wet from earlier)

[EDIT]

After posting the above, it seems to have pretty much stopped... only the odd little flake falling now. Well, at least I've witnessed snow for the first time in 2 years.

That is sometimes the problem when you live with decent elevation... you expect a lot more and get disappointed more too

Had large flakes here at times from this shower, still snowing and the sun is shining as well.

Edit : just stopped.

[fromey]

Metoffice should have put out a flood warning!!! Nothing but rain
