Well it does look as if snow will/has fall/fallen in our region. That has to be something to shout about for the snow starved - yes? 

[Mapantz]

Temp here is at 4.5°C - Dew point is 2.8°C and wetbulb is at 3.8°C

I'd agree with that, wind is still air in from a SW direction, although I did yours reporting it @ 292degrees earlier so it is swinging around a bit

9pm > going by the SR model. Although, it has curbed some of uppers, as it was showing -7's across most of the region. It has them at -6 now, before moving back up to the -5 to -4 area post midnight.

As ever the conditions are better with you but i got the ppn.....seeing that @Mapantz says the coldest uppers will be soon here and then gone by midnight not holding much hope. So rooting for everyone else now!

[jethro]

I can see stars. Radar doesn't show much, if anything due to pass this way, don't think the Mendips will get anything tonight. Good luck to those further south, think you may have more luck.

[karlos1983]

Yes rain drops only now 

[Mapantz]

I'm getting a few bearings of WNW now, the air is beginning to cool slightly. Still plenty to keep an eye on yet, that's for sure!

[Dean E]

Funny that, my temp just took a 0.5c nose dive in about 2 min period 

[Frosty_wsm]

Good forecast on points west, very high chance of showers being of snow overnight and not just on high ground either, just need the showers now lol
