Snowing here in West Yorkshire, big fluffy flakes, due to snow all night.

Snowing in NE Scotland wasn't on the forecast for tonight!

I looked out at 3am it was dinging down.
Was looking out the window because of an idiot neighbour but that's another story

That takes me back to the 1970s when I was a tiny child, and my parents used to listen to that on Radio 2. That lovely music... 🎵

Awwww, happy memories. ⚓🛳

Me too. Radio 4 in my case.

It's white over in Sheffield, it's difficult to think that in 2010, it started snowing on 29 November & we were snowed in for over 2 weeks.

I remember it well. I'm near Penistone and we had no trains for 5 days.

Aaaah, love these snowy photos!

We're in Gloucestershire and it's just really pissy and wet. Utterly miserable. Snow always seems to stop just north of us - it's very rare that we actually see any. I always have such snow envy, I love it - my DC are 15 and they still get excited when it snows!!

I hope everyone is safe and warm.

Oh my fucking shit, it's only snowing here now too!!!!

Sorry @HereForTheAnimals, I got your hopes up for nothing 😂

I have worked through the night (self-employed) and just glanced out the window to see a white garden. I'd assumed it was more rain so got the surprise of my life.

Now waiting impatiently for my teens to wake up so we can go outside and play! 😅

@MrsPerfectlyFine

Whereabouts in NS are you? I’m just over border in S Cheshire, but due to go to Chatsworth in a Motorhome tomorrow, thinking Stoke/Leek maybe the better route than Buxton!

Good luck with your mammogram today xx

JawsCushion · 19/11/2024 07:35

Just rain here. Kent. I wanted to run.

Sophiesaph24 · 19/11/2024 07:36

@RampantIvy

I grew up in Barnsley, with lots of relatives in Penistone, and went to school in Sheffield, in 70s. Lots of snow days when the non-Sheffield kids were sent home early, but interestingly the trains were always ok to get back to Barnsley! Luckily I lived walking distance from town centre

I tried to come across Woodhead after seeing my mum on her 90th birthday but it was starting to snow and I had to divert to M1.

ThatRareUmberJoker · 19/11/2024 08:02

We woke up to snow

ThatRareUmberJoker · 19/11/2024 08:03

Ain't it beautiful

It’s snowing ❄️

Snowing in East London innit!

Well, to be more accurate big flakes of white rain are falling. It is very wet and not sticking .

buffyspikefaithangel · 19/11/2024 08:27

My part of Lancashire didn't get the memo
We very very rarely get snow

It’s snowing ❄️

Snow in Herefordshire and now coming down fast

YorkieTheRabbit · 19/11/2024 08:30

Took these this morning. Not as much snow as I hoped for but it still looks nice.
Mr Blackbird is eating an apple, I usually leave the small apples for the birds.

Just over the border from you in Gloucestershire and big fat snowflakes coming down here too!

HappyNewYear2027 · 19/11/2024 08:36

DH has just left to take DS to school, snow is very deep in some areas. Typically none of the roads in the area have been gritted despite us having a week's notice that this snow was coming. I'm waiting for DD to finish her breakfast then we're going to go and build a snowman

CeeJay81 · 19/11/2024 08:39

National Crisis averted. The rain has given up trying to be Instagram ready and has reverted to being rain. The Government can breathe, the country will survive another day as London remains open for business. Thank you weather gods.

Thoughts and prayers to people with the real stuff, take care.

Gladly. Likely scenario is that people are stuck in cars taking 2 to 3 hours for journeys that normally take 20 to 30 minutes.

Oh sorry, I didn’t realise there was that much! We only get a rare dusting here so it’s easy to forget it’s not always very magical

Oganesson118 · 19/11/2024 09:04

Halifax here. There’s not as much as I was expecting! All schools except one are open. Don’t think it will be sticking around.

I was working in Sheffield at the time and living in Wakefield, I remember that fortnight very well indeed.

Snowing here in Oxfordshire and a thick winter fog rolling in ☃️

Artistbythewater · 19/11/2024 09:16

I just love this country!

We were running around in t shirts last week. This week the children are so excited with the snow!

ChishiyaBat · 19/11/2024 09:29

I have just woken up and it is snowing, very light, but there is a slight dusting, i'm going to be cold going to work today🥶 This is the view out of my bedroom window.
