Nice one Sperrin, hopefully that band survives its trip across to the East

[Juuyoku]

Just starting to snow here and sticking right away 

 

Edit - stopping now but it was just a rogue shower ahead of that front moving in.

[jello]

Metoffice warning just issued

[Rocheydub]

Rain sleety mix here and 3 degrees according to my weather station. Obviously feels colder, but a band is moving in and it looks like it could be snow... Going for a nap now, will che k back in soon!

[snowydog]

Sunny here in Belfast - few flurries on way to work over back of cavehill - but more like sleet ... looking like we're going to miss out - ah well ... everyone else enjoy!

[zebra3]

Its looking quite good for later on this afternoon and tonight. I wouldn't give up hope just yet! 

[parrotingfantasist]

We just had a shower earlier but nothing significant no lying snow at low levels right now. Tonight seems to be where its at with low temperatures being very helpful .

[Juuyoku]

Last band of showers died out before it even got to me  So hopefully something later instead. 

[Sparky72]

Well let’s hope the meto are right about tonight. 

They got today right after all

I’m very sorry to say Rochey, but this is one occasion where I hope the Dublin snow shield stays intact. Given that I’m working in Dublin today and Bray tomorrow, last thing I want to see is anything remotely resembling a snowflake next or near that god forsaken M50!! Hope you understand 

[Juuyoku]

Snowing here now, lying a little on grass and cars. Would need to be a bit heavier and/or bigger flakes to lie elsewhere. 

 

Just got a lot heavier, that's the stuff now

Yeah Ronan just got a lot heavier and darker here!!

[Weegaz]

A lot of cloud out west heading this direction on sat24, hopefully these showers showing at the minute merge as we move through today and overnight

Precipitation doesn’t look to snowy for south England so far

[Juuyoku]

Current views 

[Rocheydub]

Looking at the radar, the colder air is well and truly overhead now, everything coming across will lose its marginality and will be snow and my only hope (a weak one at that) is the precip reaches this far. Doesn’t look likely at the moment!

[ronan]

This all fell in that last shower!! 3/4cms!! Crazy the difference out in the countryside. 

[zebra3]

A few showers starting to kick in now!
