Yep  snow this morning   No awaiting the deluge 

[Polar Maritime]

Heavy snow here with whiteout conditions.

[Polar Maritime]

Few pics from the local lanes, been out in 4x4 for a scoot round.. still snowing moderately.

[Polar Maritime]

Turning to sleet now here.

[Snowyowl9]

There were still snow flakes falling as far as 10 am as it was turning to rain more then had a covering higher up.

Upper air much too high you`d think.

Next snow showers only 1 day to wait.

Snow and hail showers, quite heavy, tries to stick but then melts as soon as it gets lighter

still coming down ...big flakes for last 5 mins sticking on cars & roofs now

[MattStoke]

Wow. Graupel has turned to heavy snow!

[davehsug]

Snow from a South Westerly wind! Not something that happens every day. 

[Ryukai]

Still coming down really fast, but the initial build up on the roads/pavement has all melted  still gathering in/on the grass/car roofs though.

[Snowyowl9]

Frequent heavy snow and hail showers,one a big soft hailstorm.

Another covering of snow temp is 0.6c

What a strange month! Very mild, very wet, yet we must have seen snow falling on at least 10 days.

[Ryukai]

Aaaand, it's stopped, Booooooooo  

Well at least it was exciting for 10 mins  

Edited February 29, 2020 by Ryukai

[el tiempo]

coming down stronger again...big flakes 

[nobble]

Just having a heavy snow shower

[el tiempo]

still snowing steady and the suns out too

[Walsall Wood Snow]

Had a heavy shower of snow/hail here too.

[Ryukai]

beginning to really pick up again, feels weird looking to the SW to watch the snow come towards us, it's almost always from the NW, getting a crick in my neck from looking in the 'wrong' direction  

 

EDIT: and fully stopped now, well... other than the odd, lagging, wind blown flake.  Looks like there's another large heavy cloud heading in though.
