Weather app can’t make it's mind up.

This morning it was 7” of snow at 6pm, then it dropped to 2”, now showing 5” but back up to 12’c and sunny tomorrow.

-10C here this morning, about 6C lower than forecast, supposed to be -5 tomorrow morning before turning to snow later on Sunday night. First commute back into town will be fun on Monday, will be away early to avoid the crowds.

Nice and toasty here 4°

I'm hoping it does snow here, you cant beat a walk in the snow around the Peak District.

Forecast keeps changing between heavy rain/sleet/snow for Saturday evening, not ideal for a trip down to Brighton, trains are bad enough as it is.

That depends where you're coming from it won't be snowing in brighton I guarantee it

Yep, I'm already planning my walk out in the snow, fingers crossed this evening with camera in hand.

Can’t imagine it doing anything other than snowing tonight, although anything that settles will be gone by the morning looking at the 12C forecast here tomorrow.

Last night was bitter here, down to -6.9 degrees C and the 7-8" of snow we already had froze which made things "interesting" this morning. Lovely sunny morning with clear blue sky although very crisp and cold. Back down to zero now with another cold night on the way. From Wednesday onwards it's supposed to get even colder and a shed load of snow coming from Monday as well.

So mostly rain then

Rroff · Saturday at 18:38

Getting very heavy sleet/frozen rain here, would only have to be about 1C colder and it would have been heavy snow.

Where's that around Wales?

Sleet turned to snow, but seems a tad to warm to stick.

Noxia · Saturday at 20:53

Roads closed near me. Probably due to typical Brits falling apart over 0.1mm of snow.

hamesy · Saturday at 20:56

It's snowing here in Staffordshire and it's starting to stick.

No-One · Saturday at 21:00

According the radar maps we should be under it now but there’s nothing falling outside yet

Uther · Saturday at 21:11

Bit of a nothing burger here, supposed to be heavy snow but it's just sleet.

Slam62 · Saturday at 21:18

Snowing here, only an inch on the ground, looks like a fair bit more precipitation on the way, but forecast to turn to rain.

That map says rain where I am, so that’s white crystalline rain then, at the moment anyhow.

I had to abandoned my car around 100m from the house as I couldn't get it up the hill due to an inch or so of very slippery snow.

I saw some properly moronic driving tonight. Full marks to the cretin tailgating me when I was going down a big hill in second gear.
