Well we had spring weather this morning and this pic was taken about 5 mins ago and we have about 3cm now :thumbsdown:
I hope thats not heading northerly - I don't want it here!


Hi, back again.
I've still got me passion for meteorology but we're now entering this time of the year where "significant and prolonged" nationwide cold spells are rare and what we've had today was the result of a pool of unstable cold air. Hardly worth producing threads for it.![]()
What had happened today was where heavy showers inside that pool of cold air brought down pockets of colder air from aloft and enabled to bring down snow to low levels. It's usually very localised and catches people out by surprise when it does happen.
Here's the weather for this week in a nutshell:
TOMORROW (Monday): Cold start with local frost patches in morning. Good sunny spells in east of the UK, showers to the west, some may be wintry in flavour. Generally rather cool.
TUESDAY: A good deal of cloud with outbreaks of drizzle and light rain spreading east to all parts. Hill fog also likely. Becoming milder. Perhaps becoming clearer by night time.
WEDNESDAY: Bright start to the east of the UK, cloudy to the west with outbreaks of drizzle and light rain. Mild after a somewhat chilly start.
THURSDAY: Rain sweeping southwards across the UK, cooler and showery conditions following on behind. Mild at first, turning colder through the day.
FRIDAY: Becoming more settled as showers die away.
THE WEEKEND: Looks like being quite settled, and possibly becoming warmer with the first 15 C being reported somewhere around the country.
So there you have it.![]()
