Must say, there has been precious little activity in the Irish sea this evening- its really cold here- but alas, nearly time to call it a day- good luck all, i suspect Will might get a dusting, hopefully better luck next time ..

Went out 20 minutes ago and frost on car. went out again and just had rain shower and frost all gone.

[Chris.R]

Not enough CAPE yet this evening. 3-8 am is my bet for when the showers will be at their best. 

[cheshire snow]

Rain showers now beginning to get through the cheshire Gap,and to be honest felt colder

During day light hours

Looks like there are a few showers nearing my area shortly- think they will be rain/sleet here, pretty much no one reporting snow in our region..

Wet flakes of sleet now mixed into recent shower. 

[Geordiesnow]

Heavy hail here left a decent covering, almost winter wonderland scenes.

[Chris.R]

Wow! Just had an extremely powerful sell pass overhead with some of the largest hail i’ve ever seen and a few  flashes of lightning and rumbles of thunder. There’s a beautiful feeling of potential in the air. Feels like there may be more to come.

Nice covering of snow after some heavy snow showers in Shaw Oldham. Should better on the tops where I live.

[SMU]

Buxton getting a pasting as usual

Got a covering of the white stuff here on most surfaces.  Looks very wet looking so should be easy to clear off the car when I travel to work in a wee bit.  Another batch of wintry showers could be dropping from the north west soon too.

[Had Worse]

Great big fluffy flakes falling and the ground is white as I type.

What a view to wake up to.

[Cheshire Freeze]

Some of you lot live in a different world. Wet here but there was definitely flakes falling in amongst the rain a bit ago.
