We have SNOW!
In the last hour, we've had graupel, sleet showers and now proper snow!

GloriaSmud · 11/02/2018 13:39

And our temperature's plummeted too ~ 5.5c a few minutes ago and now it's 2.6C

gttia · 11/02/2018 13:58

Oh wow!!! I'd like some this week I'm off work Grin

What's it looking like for north Kent, south east London? Enjoy your snow gloria xx

BishopBrennansArse · 11/02/2018 14:33

Just had a sudden heavy burst of graupel, lasted about 3 minutes

nannynick · 11/02/2018 14:44

Sleet just started in West Surrey, doubt it will last long though, the sun was just out.

GloriaSmud · 11/02/2018 15:24

gttia ~ don't think you're going to get snow this week but as it's looking unsettled and chilly, you might have a week where 'all weather types' gets thrown at you so might get the odd wintry shower.

Our weather and temperature's all over the place ~ sometimes rain, graupel, sleet, snow, temperature goes down then back up so anything wintry is melting fairly quickly.

nannynick · 11/02/2018 16:08

More sleet/hail in Bracknell, 4pm.

We've just had sleet and hail!

GloriaSmud · 11/02/2018 16:32

There you go ~ all weather in one day! Grin
We've got snow again, temperature ~ 2.6C

GloriaSmud · 11/02/2018 16:33

The temperature's fascinating to watch ~ now down to 2.3C

GloriaSmud · 11/02/2018 16:35

Lots of snow reports coming in here.

notsomanky · 11/02/2018 16:48

HaiL, graupel and snow showers on and off all afternoon, but glorious sunshine in between. Nothing lying here

WiseOldElephant · 11/02/2018 17:01

Hail and sleet here in Surrey this afternoon. Netweather was showing snow for this evening but that's suddenly disappeared, much to the disappointment of the DC, who are nearly as obsessed with the weather as I am!!

GloriaSmud · 11/02/2018 17:14

Snow hitting the side of my car a few minutes ago during another snow shower. Temperature now down to 1.4C

Ok this is bizarre. Snow never ever sticks here. I went in a house (carer) and it was fine outside. I came back out 25 mins later and the place is white over ShockConfused

gttia · 11/02/2018 19:45

We've just had snow. Went for a drink few miles away and came out too lovely soft flakes!

Bejazzled · 11/02/2018 19:49

We've got another good covering here (close to moors 20 miles south west of Glasgow) and forecast is more to come over the next few days,

notsomanky · 11/02/2018 21:36

DH went out for a run at 7. Came home 7.30 and said it was sleet in. 20 minutes later DS2 was shouting that the roads were white. We still have a covering now but the sky is clear.

ozymandiusking · 11/02/2018 21:46

It's blowing a blizzard here, and it's sticking. ( near Manchester)

gttia · 11/02/2018 22:40

I wouldn't mind snow this week as I'm off!! It normally causes huge anxiety but I'd get the sledges out and have a go with my kids this week!

keepondreaming · 11/02/2018 23:01

Is it very ignorant of me that I had to google 'graupel' ?
Or maybe it's nit in my vocabulary because I'm a soft Southerner!

Ollivander84 · 11/02/2018 23:02

White over

Looks like we had about a cm of snow in total. Just had a graupel shower now too.

Off to take DS2 to meet the coach to Wales.
