From what I can see the main snow band is now only in a minor pivot and following a more north/north east trajectory. This is different to what it was showing an hour ago - and to what was 'predicted'. Pivot less pronounced.

I think for newer/younger members, seeing how difficult this is to track - even within this miniscule timeframe shows how/why people say it is difficult to forecast snow in the UK even within in a 24 hour timescale.

It does what it wants and nowcasting is always mentioned, but genuinely always the case to be more relaible - as that is what is happening outside your window!

2 cars only made it halfway up my street and just abandoned across road - light snow again now, seems to be distinctly colder now as well.

Dear Chione, Goddess of snow, please please please let no one be gutted on any of the forums esp MAD, think everyone, by now, has had even a little biddy flake of snow.

Nice to wake up and it's white out there, if only there was more precipitation to give us a few more hours. I can guarantee if it was just that bit to warm for snow it would have been here all day  

Bring on the next chase

Lovely in Heath park, this was better than I expected for Cardiff. Although you had to be north of the city centre by the looks. Zero in Cardiff bay for example.

No infernal drip yet which is good, feels quite chilly out there and hope that's the way it stays all day.

A few flakes still coming down, light outside now but the nice snow glow in the house I have missed for some time.

Everything has gone very icey, I think it was ice rain earlier thismorning, as the thin snowcover in Barry was just sheets of ice on all surfaces when I left for work! 

The A48 to Cowbridge was very snowy and icy still, deeper snow along there, wasn't a nice drive, be careful out today if you take a drive or walk anywhere.

Looks nice, I used to go for a run around there after work as I work around that area. Also played football on the field there years ago. It's a nice area.

If you look North and play the radar loop as the low moves away expect that blob up near the N of ireland to be pulled this way
