Thur & Fri

Saturday

Those are quite possibility the most uncertain, sitting on the fence, snow-related (possibly severe) weather warnings that I've ever seen on the met's site.

The frequent use of provisos such as "potential", "small chance", "slight chance", "may become", "could occur", etc. Does anyone get the impression that the Met Office are extremely uncertain and are, quite rightly, putting out warnings just to be on the safe side?

Whatever happens to those on lower ground or on the coast it does at least look very likely that Andy could be dumped on in a truly spectacular fashion.

Edit: the warnings are notable for NOT mentioned rain (or freezing rain) so that possibly bodes well for snow lovers.

Oh my Goodness!!!

Was not expecting any snow to fall in Pembroke today... lol... 

Our chances were slim! 

But we've had 'dandruff' on and off since 10.30am this morning and in the last hour they've turned to proper flakes!!! and still falling...lol...

Doesn't help with the strength of the sun now too.

Hopefully later tonight we can get a layer of snow.
