Wonder if this is what the BBC forecast this morning was hinting at.

C.S

Maybe CS. Reports from north and west of Leeds are good. Be a nice final flourish to what has been a disappointing 10 days round these parts.

Same for me, BBC and Met office where saying heavy snow most of the night and light snow all day, completely changed now, don't trust any of them anymore

REPORTS OF SNOWFALL IN CUMBRIA ARW NOT WIDESPREAD. HERE IN MY LOCATION IN SOUTH LAKELAND WE HAVE LITERALLY NOTHING.

[WillinGlossop]

1-2 inches melting and compacting moderate drizzle quite gusty wind now... can’t see anything more snowise... bit disappointing but hey ho roll on winter... looks cold tonight once this mess clears

[Snow free zone]

Morning all.  Nothing overnight in my part of Preston. Driving up the M6 there same story W of the M6 towards the coast, and inland until you hit the Galgate area.  Theres an area of localised heavy snow just South of Lancaster assuming its altitute related, as further N again theres no cover once you get past Lancaster.  Up here between Carnforth and Kendal no snow at all - plenty on the hills to the E of the M6 though.  May take a trip over to Kirkby Lonsdale area tomorrow for my permitted excercise  looks like theres a bit of snow over there

Light covering much to my surprise for us fenland lowlanders after yesterday’s total thaw. 
Hawes and the N Pennines taking a hit. 

haha .... we missed it this time enjoy !

[James M]

It's gone a bit sleety here at 0.3C. If that heavier stuff makes it, it might turn snowy again.

[jam2010]

Looks like the intensity has already reduced in the last few frames.

Not sure think precipitation is so light... more flakes in the wind and sun trying to make an appearance 

[shadowfax]

Snowing lightly. That yellow finger can’t quite make it from Todmorden to Bacup!!

[Slidergate '17]

Just started to rain in Sale.

[jam2010]

Nothing gonna happen think im going to call it a day, it frustrates me which is not good when trying to work. 

part from the cold this spell has been rubbish for me.

 

[PennineMark]

Get a feeling we are in a hole again. Easterlys are so hit and miss. 

[The Northern Ramper]

Snowing

[SnowWatcher2]

Its not moving South quick enough, another direct miss I think.

[dodge]

Wet sleety mix falling steadily now, it's actually melting the overnight dusting we had now temps have risen above 1c.  Some decent cold feeling days in this lengthy post Christmas cold spell...but the falls of snow wouldn't be on my first page of memorables.

[Chris.R]

So a slight dusting overnight maybe 4 mm which is better than the 3 mm On the 28th. Can’t complain.

[Chris.R]

I have been told there is 1 inch at my old house in Crosby. How ironic.

[I Cumbria Marra I]

Only a dusting but i'll certainly take it after no snow since 2018! Measured 0.3/4mm deep.

Thanks! We got zero snow march 2013 btw, was in a rain shadow, got a bit in jan 2013 though.
