It's snowing

[AtreuS]

Been snowing all day here in macclesfield, its sticking now

I love the bbc weather... as usual the "weather now" has no resemblance to what is actually happening

 

[cainer]

sunny here in the south

 

[bazzabear]

Also in the Macc area. It doesn't seem to be getting any thicker on the ground. I think we're at the perfect balance point - it's dropping at exactly the same rate as it's melting.

All gone here at work in Warrington about half way down the M62 it just vanishes.

 

[Freefaller]

No sign of it here

Brief snowfall here in not so sunny Southampton in the last ~30mins, after at least some hail and now back to fine drizzle. Not a chance of sticking, but BBC weather already has yellow ice warning for tomorrow morning, skates and studded bike tyres on standby!

Its exactly like that here too, a bit further south than you. Not sure its cold enough either.

 

[Skiddley]

Back garden has about 3-4 inches now. Still going strong

Sunny all morning here then a random really heavy snowstorm for 10 minutes, now sunny again!

Can you imagine the news about the chaos this little bit of snow would have caused if it had been darn sarf

We were suppose to have it - if we don't then I think that will be last chance to get out on roads before it's time to put summer wheels on.

turns out it chaos for northerners too

Heavy snowfall has caused "chaos" in parts of northern England, with forecasters predicting further cold weather in the days to come.

Last time we had heavy snow in Northumberland it didn't even make the local news. We just get on with it.

The heaviest snow I can remember in my lifetime was when we were living in Shropshire, on a farm on the B5476 between Tilstock and Prees, I would have been 7/8 at the time (1980/81). The school in Tilstock was closed for at least a few days during term time, snow was up to my waist and I had to walk like a saddle sore cowboy to get around the farm's fields!

That was real winter, down here in Hampshire they panic if there is a centimetre of snow that sticks.

Crazy isn't it?

when snow sees london.

It's started on the South Coast... Near Portsmouth anyway.

And now it stopped and the sun has come out. **** you weather **** you.

Snow is the only reason the North is better than the South in winter, for all other reasons it sucks.

What I don't understand is we have had colder days than this and it's just rained. What's that particular condition that makes snow?

 

[cainer]

got hail here now (hampshire), www.raintoday.co.uk shows it just to be a passing shower though

Nothing here in the western lake district (Thank god) - i've got away with it this winter so far with a rwd car
