Can't promise that I'll be able to add as much as I usually do (not very well atm) so its quite likely I might miss stuff but I've added a few thoughts to that thread re the current set up and tis easier if I just keep it in one place.

Nope Saltire not yet I'm sat staring at the sky.

Turning into mini hail.

Light but steady fall in Gloucestershire - started about an hour ago. It's not particularly heavy but it seems to be sticking and the sky is totally white.

Falling since 11am in Saddleworth. Oh joy.

Gloria - snow has reached Atherstone now... I reckon 16 more minutes for Hinckley...

It's here!!! :D yaay

It's just the west side of Oxford now on the snowmap, centralish people.

We have snow now in Pickering, N Yorks

Anyone round the liverpool area to report in? I've seen reports of freezing rain. Nasty!

Bad news for those flying out of heathrow tomorrow cancelled flights

baa announcement

We had a few big flakes and now it's stopped. Come onnnnnn! (Does more thumb-twiddling!)

Snow has hit North Oxfordshire, (but not yet Oxford itself according to DH) - It's been on and off since about 2pm, but is now a consistent fall.

Hail/sleet here now.

Oh well.

Tiny tiny flakes started a minute ago in Dorset .

could turn back again manky for a bit I'd have thought.

motherpanda - thats good news :) (tis coming ever closer) the front will slow down as it crosses the country and looks set to stall over areas where the heaviest precip is expected.

Rebeccamn - did your guests survive?

Well if they are stopping flights at Heathrow then I might get snow

Any snow Manchester Airport way? DH is stuck on a plane waiting to take off....3hrs late.

No snow in Reading, there are clouds in the sky though so hopefully soon

0 deg at the Meadows roundabout. Not sure how accurate that is the OYBBK.

I'm going to pop out to the supermarket in a minute - but by god it's cold out there. I'm going to be daring and leave the electric heater on while I'm gone - hope it's OK. Life on the edge at 40 hey - leaving the heater on!!

Doesn't really feel like it's going to snow though - it doesn't 'feel' right - but I'm used to the Alps so maybe it feels different without the altitude?

Right - if I'm not back in a couple of hours - send someone to defrost me :)

chipping is that the meadows by M&S & tesco??
You are v close to me if it is....

We're about 10 minutes away from the airport Lily and there's no snow worth talking about. We had a dusting earlier but it hasn't really stuck.

Snowing quite steadily for about an hour now, in mid-Somerset. Pitching well, about a centimetre so far. The log burner is lit, chocolate opened, bliss!

Anyone in north hants? I'm stuck in a shopping centre, its still busy so I imagine its not snowing yet (our carpark took 3 hours to get out of last time so people panic)
Thank you oybbk for your response earlier

NN3 is apparently just started snowing, but I'm at the south end of the county and there is nought yet.
