Do you feel this month has wiped out the pain of your big misses of the past 10 years??

Oh, without a doubt! Feb 28th/March 1st saw more snow here than 2009 and 2010 combined. From both these events, circa 25cm in total. That's rare in itself, and yet it happened in March. :O

The brighter echoes look to be headed our way  surprised me when I looked at the radar I thought the snow was done with us for the day.  Ice surprise

Yeah it's looking quite good developing quickly. Have a sparkling dusting now which has covered the patio and street so looking good! 

[SizzlingHeat]

Snowing in Poole. Not overly heavy and only dusting the pavement. Road is wet.

You guys in Cheltenham yea?

I'm only 100meters, but in these non marginal set-ups elevation doesn't make that much difference.

radar is suggesting something heavier is on the way so perhaps an hour or so of more significant snowfall

I believe I'm 65 Meters. Not far off each other. Difference is, Cleeve Hill is my snow shield. 

[DanDorsetUK]

This is canford cliffs poole so far.

[Nights King]

Light snow falling here.

Heavier ppn to my south just missing but im hoping to get in on the action later 

[Bristawl Si]

Not even any snizzle falling here. Seem to be in a gap looking at radar.

Cotswolds could zap my snow this eve

Going by the radar and taking into account the amount of lying snow in Devon, surprised parts of Devon did. Did not get a red warning, perhaps thats what Ian was referring to, perhaps the models have underperformed..

Yeah settling on all surfaces without a problem. Sizzling heat must be warming the Tarmac up lol

I RED WARNING was on the cards for a good DUMPING !! ?

[Mapantz]

Semi-pitching on the road here, not in the middle bit where cars go up and down. Concrete is getting a good seeing too, though.

[Nights King]

Bingo

Oh lol, not meteres, feet!!! And its 86.

[Glenosnow]

Roads white around here...which is actually a better covering than the roads had  this morning....its great when you get these little features that pop up at short notice....snow fix meter...full to overflowing.......brilliant.

[mike5900]

snowing heavy here now

[Man With Beard]

We're in the snizzle zone here. Not a complete stop after the main band. I wonder if it is still developing. If it is, a big night ahead for areas further west.

Really? I’m losing confidence.

just seen our friends near you have posted on Facebook that their road is closed.. they live on the Rocky Mountain/Masbury Road 

[Severe Siberian icy blast]

Heavy snow and big flakes in the Cotswolds atm just been walking in it starting to really come down again and there's some decent radar developments continuing to back build 

[sdcbmthsch]

Very light stuff visible in streetlights here in Moordown; nothing settling on roads/pavements that I can see - they're just wet.

Abbeymead - small flakes blowing in the wind, instant cover though after the road melt earlier.

[Leon1]

i have a feeling the heavy stuff in the midlands with move south-east to the bristol area
