I’m up for a spot of radar/lamp post watching. Nothing seems to making it to ground from the light precip that’s shown on radar.

Met now showing a snow -> sleet event, so at least that’s upgraded to one snow icon!! We’ll see.

Gutted... but happy for you! Pouring with rain here!

Temp has climbed from 0c to 2c in the last hour...

I do this year on year...stay up for the 'big event', only to be greeted by rain, time and time again...

But hey, that's life living 10m asl....?‍♂️ ??‍♂️

That's harsh! Bet the upper boundary layers are really close together. Could be anything from rain to hail to freezing rain to snow.

Wouldn't have it any other way 

I went out for a walk about 2 hours ago and there was some frost on the cars and on decking. But temp is now between 1C to 2C in the bay, and up to 3C in Brixham.

Please don't fade in the Bristol Channel. INTENSIFY PIVOT

Am I seeing a more northern tilt on this front already? Or do I need to make a coffee? Looks like the beginning of a pivot but its way too early for that isn't it?

I think it's pivoting into a curved line through the Cotwolds. Chances of decent snow for Cardiff and Bristol are increasing, I think.

I’m liking the look of the intensity coming up through Devon and Somerset, at least it’s not having to come over the Bristol Channel. Fingers crossed we might see a centimetre or two.

Probably rain near the coast. It's very marginal:/

Some heavy echoes on the radar near Taunton and if I’m not mistaken that looks like it’s heading straight for Weston, surely it’s snow this time ❄️⛄

What do you think the chances are for Weston super mare

Weather app says snow, not that I trust it, sat in my car with the heating going & outside temp currently - 1, hard frost on cars still.
