So our next "potential" period of interest is the 22nd - 23Rd, according to Gfs anyway, maybe a wee Greenland high building as well?

some nice showers coming through here this morn. place is just froze solid and no sign of a thaw. very windy too and feels bitter out.

[Guest]

The dusting is thawing rapidly. Garden shed roof dripping with water which would be expected with full blown sunshine and temperatures of 4.3C

[AlderCat]

I predicted 10cm and I think we barely got 1cm in the good places. Ah well

I went for 15cm!, but that was based on the Meto's initial forecast of "significant" snowfall.

Just another let down and the way things are going last few years. Another over-reaction by meto it seems so in future I will take these warnings with a pinch of salt. Ah well onto next chase if one materialise's.

Nice shower of snow here now been on for last ten minutes. Thickening up a bit and a steady fall. Now if it could just keep that up.

[Guest]

Raining here now.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Tricky enough drive home in parts plenty of snow around the whole way up as well

That's f***** sensational Boofer. Great photo.

No snow this morning at all when I woke, apparently it sleeted during the night. All surfaces were frozen solid, and the roads were dodgy. My best taste of winter since 2010. Shows how bad it's been since then!

Wow. Freezing rain right now in Antrim.  Just went out to get some coal for the fire and nearly broke my neck. Haven't seen freezing rain in years.   

[jello]

Now its snowing lol.  Huge flakes!  

[booferking]

There seems to be a lot of shower activity any snow reports out east looks better tonight than it did last couple of nights.

[BIG LAD]

showers this this eve have been sleet?hail. falling on frozen ground roads with be tricky in morn. have to say im happy with how it turned out we done well enough snowise.

[somofagun]

Tell u what.....its crap snow for building a snowman in. To powdery to even bond. Kids were not impressed

[snowydog]

Snowing nicely in Glengormley here. With a decent thin layer to start it off. Completely frozen over mind you 

[Baltic Regions]

Wow. Bit of a surprise there. 

Just looked out to find this. I seem to be in the little pink blob surrounded by green in the  netweather radar. Nice.

 

[Rocheydub]

Ah Jeysus, I have clear skies here, not a bit of fluff in sight!

[gary1365]

Was frozen solid when I went to work at 7 thirty now it's raining.

[Longtimelurker]

Sleet showers on and off all day, still patchy snow cover. Idk how seeing as we only had 1cm covering. At dusk above 130/150m was still pure white. I thought 2.5 days of snow cover earlier in the week so even though it was nice it snowed it was a pile of crap tbh considering expectations and lack of sleep spent lamppost watching

Very icy outside at 3am, its still pretty bad but the rain has helped to clear it up a little.  Take care on your travels.  

[somofagun]
