Same here plus hail for good measure no settling snow tho

[Sperrin]

Disappointing that it is more sleety for me here now than earlier. Was actually raining a while ago. Need a temps to drop a degree of two more. 

[BFS/BHD]

Snowing away here now. Not settling though. 

[booferking]

This must be the trough with warm sector then.

Warm sector was always there for a few hours just to much on marginal side but looks better later on tho and if we dont get snow by tomorrow morning with -8 850s then it's time to move to Iceland this little island would do you head in sometimes when it comes ta snow.

Now that I would love to see 

[gary1365]

I drove round the north coast from Downhill to Portballintrae. There were some decent waves nothing overly dramatic. I drove over the bishops road. There was a few cm of snow lying at the top of Binevenagh.

I'm not even getting up to look at what's coming down here I'm too depressed lol.

[ronan]

2 big flashes of lighting here just now 

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Not jealous of those who have lightening, honest

[Sperrin]

Whoa! That escalated quickly, full on Blizzard here now

[mountain shadow]

All snow here now but still not sticking, it's trying though.

[Mixer 85]

Took a spin up the local hill earlier and it was near whiteout conditions and starting to settle. Still sleet imby unfortunately. I’ll likely be up and down the hill like a yo-yo trying to get my fix

 

[jello]

Full on blizzard for ages now.  North Belfast.  A few big flashes of lightning too.   Ground white over.
