No we missed most of them up in Bacup and last nights continuous snow from about 7pm until after midnight only added a few millimetres to the cm I already had.

Must have caught a bit more here. Not a great deal, but will be nice walking through the village to see Santa at garden centre with the kids - looks just like it should!

[SP1986]

A few cm have fallen here today 

[Weather-history]

It looked like it was clearing up with the cloud thinning but cloud has rethickened and snowflakes falling again in breeze.

[NickyB]

Yep, very light snow here too. Not sticking but nice to see all the same.

We're getting larger flakes now pepped up abit

[Mokidugway]

Suns out here 

[Winter Hill]

Think I'll give work a miss tomorrow. Told everyone to expect 20cm + when the amber warnings were issued.

Think I've counted about 5 snow flakes so far.

[Stratocumulus perlucidus]

Got moderate snow now! Seems to be fiktering from north wales eastward 

[chiffer]

If this snow was a sausage, it would be the wurst.

[Winter Hill]

Time for a pint me thinks, that's if I can get through the 0.5cm drift near the front gate.

Me too, I'm gonna have to learn to keep my mouth shut

[davehsug]

Feel more at home here today! After about 1cm yesterday, we've really hardly added anything. Always do badly from these set-ups, even March 2013 didn't deliver.

[Mokidugway]

Sun drifts here are horrendous 

[chiffer]

Well at least it's better than last winter so far, that's a good start. maybe we will have much better luck on our next chance

[wrightc23]

There's barely anything here now. Just a light dusting that's melted already. Funnily enough we were under an amber warning that disappeared at 9am. Light snow predicted for this afternoon. London will end up with more snow than us. I'm struggling to remember the last time a significant snow event predicted actually materialised?

Me too, I always get my hopes up even though I know i'm gonna be disappointed

[Backtrack]

Look how far north it’s span up the east coast. Wouldn’t surprise me if we were the only region snowless come tomorrow 

[Mokidugway]

Quite impressed with snow amounts today 

[Spurry]

Looks like near the M1 is a snow free zone as well

If you think we got it bad, look at this place near salisbury. Completely diverted this vilage!!

[Makemeasnowman]

Snowing more heavily in south Liverpool now. Definitely pepped up a bit 

[itsnowjoke]

Think it's about time met office took me out of the yellow warning bit

[i luv snow]

I have actually got light snowfall in Swinton, Salford right now, nothing to shout about of course but hey ho! My family down south have had a pasting, I was meant to be there this weekend but my automatic car got stranded trying to get up an icy hill out of my close yesterday in our 1cm of snow, so I didn't make it. I thought a snow day would make up for it, but it turns out they got it instead..... if I don't laugh, I'll cry.... (haha)
