Relying on your reports for early tomorrow morning for a potential drive over to the Mendips for a snowy walk.

I leave for work at 7.45 latest so shall post before then if I see anything of interest.

This winter weather malarkey stresses me out...

Just checked the north West thread and couldn't help but have a chuckle at a certain poster who I've seen so excited in the mod thread over the past few days about the snow shower potential from this setup and at the moment all the showers are missing his location lol

3.5c here now.. DP 0c. Was just thinking of going to bed then chatter started of poss polar low AND more model interest... wide awake now! 

AND snow in Wellington!! 

I know , I'm just 7 miles from there . Weird . I'll have to look out of my window. I'm really surprised I thought that it would be just rain. And th wind has started to whip up .

Current wind direction is perfect for longest sea track between Ireland and north Somerset - which should give chances for snow showers through the night. Surprisingly dew point would appear to be -3 if the nearest weather station hasnt developed a fault... and temps set to fall to freezing. 

It would suggest a fault with the humidity readings there, Catacol. Three other stations close by Wellington show DP's around 1 to 2C

Temperature has risen here slightly too.. not sure about the wind. Think I’ll go to bed and see what we wake up to.

That's a good one. They're using a Davis VP2 station, so you know the readings will be accurate.

Been out for my last smoke. Temp risen to 3.8C and I can confirm, it is raining.

[matt111]

Back up to 4.0°C as that line of showers approaches. Not sure if it'll reach here but probably not worth bothering about anyway, 

[dec10snow]

Wake up all you Bristollians and Gloucesterians (is that a thing?!) and all you surrounding, direct hit incoming!!
