Very heavy snow in the last hour, huge flakes awesome snowstorm, not seen snow like this for a long time:) Just waked down to the main A520 and there's little traffic and a lot of snow, not sure gritters have been anywhere near. One car struggled to get up our steep hill and gave up! Strange to walk in the snow in almost total silence on such a normally busy road. You can see the shadows of...

This is the pits. Rained steadily here since 1100GMT . 7.3 mm to 1800GMT and still going. Not sure so much was forecast. Recent hard frosts have ruined the flowers in my garden. Camellias, rhododendrons, daffs, primulas and even the helebores. Ruined. Only the snowdrops seem unaffected. Temperature is nearing 9C now which is good.

I looked out of the window at about 17:30 and could see that flat surfaces such as the road and paths had a thin covering of snow. No doubt there was also snow on the grass, but since I was relying on the street lighting I couldn't see it. It must have started snowing sometime around 17:00. -- John Hall "The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism ...

Very light but settling snow, for the last twenty minutes.

Snow started at 1300z, mostly light, 1/2 inch lying, temps gone down from a high of -1c at 1200z to -2c since snow as been falling. Quite a strong breeze, when I popped to the local shops at 1245z making it feel very cold. Joe Egginton Wolverhampton 175m ASL

Onset of sleet at 1630Z has become continuous but still slight, finely balanced with 50% rain and 50% snow (just rain lower down in the town centre). Hard surfaces damp. Of much more significance so far today was the low air min temp of -8.4C, our coldest night since 2 Jan 1997, over 15 years ago.
