Same but its outside Orange warning so its coming in slower?

I changed it to an IMBY address which is BA1, I'm about 1/2 mile inside the warning area lol!

[Timer]

Still raining in East Devon, still 4.1C

[Kreftysoton]

it doesn't look as though the front is pivoting or is it just me?? just heading straight in, I don't fancy my chances close to the IOW now and nowhere near cold enough for snow....

[Lorraine]

Much better upgrade than earlier 

[Jemma Croton]

On drive back from getting kids from school I could see there was definitely snow on the hills out towards Liddington direction.

rain, turning wintry now - torrington

[That ECM]

On the best day so far I’ve had back to back meetings and can’t check updates etc. There’s only so many times you can say you need the loo which really is let’s try and find out if snow is upgraded. Some please give me an update so I can check on my next loo break

[Bald Eagle]

Heavy snow on top of quantocks from my viewpoint just below

Yes I posted this webcam a few pages ago lol. never mind

i just re-posted it to show how bad it got since you posted it.

Doesn't look like it's pivoting yet to me if you run the radar sequence. Just heading steadily in a NE direction.

I guess you should be able to see when it starts pivoting as the precipitation in the Irish Sea will start travelling south-westwards/south which it isn't doing yet.

As expected, the rain has arrived. Looking forward to seeing how things pan out

[Barbel]

Very dark here and that slight chlorine green/yellow tinge to the air which I reckon means snow imminent. Nr Axminster in the tractor.

Here's a rare picture of snow on the Lizard - about as South as you can get.   Bit soggy tbh but better than nothing.

Love it at the Lizard, especially the clifftop walk to Kynance, hoping to buy a house down there next year. If anyone's down there, can highly recommend the Wavecrest café, it's down by the lifeboat station.

It will be interesting to see whether a little wave does form on the front in the Channel in the next couple of hours

[SteveB]

Anything Smartie?

[Dean E]

The frontal boundary appears to have developed a small scale low within it, currently located south of Plymouth in the channel. Is the reason why some parts of Cornwall and North Devon are seeing snow due to a NE wind lowering temperatures. 

[offerman]

Wow 

 

matmus clouds currently over frome . 

I just this second took these 

 

 

[Andrew_WsM]

Trying to rain here in Weston but on and off.

I've just been outside and it's bitter out there. According to Southampton Weather the Temperature is currently 2.3C and dew point -3.4 and they will continue to fall.

Relax, it will probably start as rain but should turn to snow pretty quickly. Should be good for a few cm's at least as should most of the region.
