Snowing here. It is sticking to all surfaces all thanks to the clear skies last night.

Still got yesterday's slight covering here but nothing since although it is starting to cloud over a bit now so hopefull for something later to compensate for tomorrow's expected letdown.

Should mean it arrives here soon! You’re my favourite snow reporter! 

[wrightc23]

Decent 20 minutes of snow here just stopped, sticking as well. Good that it's snow rather than the usual wintry mix.

Is that doctored!!!

[chicken soup]

Snowing a bit here now...as for tomorrow a right kick in the nuts...but to me an expected kick in the nuts.

[frosty ground]

There was ways a risk that the snow could sink south I think we will know more when the warnings are updated.

Even today is all about radar watching....

Max of 0 here today and -1 tomorrow

That's the mighty ICON model. Unfortunately it has been persistently further north with the track of the band.
