Just a sleety rain shower here.. I see its managing to snow around Manchester though

Both Clee Hills were white over this morning at 8am

[Walsall Wood Snow]

Light precipitation coming down now, unfortunately it's just rain.

[Snowyowl9]

Snow made it to low ground around here.

[weirpig]

Rain here  just not low enough DP  maybe Thursday morning we may see some.

[Gord]

Very light dusting of snow here this morning. The best bit about this morning was the view across to the Shropshire Hills that we have from here. Bright morning sunshine and white hills in the distance. Beautiful. Sleetly rain  here now with the occasional flake. Pretty miserable turnaround after that lovely start to the day. 

[Gord]

Surprisingly it's turning into heavy wet snow here. Must be under a heavier burst. I suppose how high up I am helps. Would be interesting to see what it's like down the road as you go down the hill. Easing off and getting back to more sleety again. I'm making this sound more exciting than it actually is. Still a miserable afternoon!

[weirpig]

[fizz511]

Sleet here, but nothing exciting.

[weirpig]
