Snow Discussion 2010

Snow related discussion only in here. This will give a better focus for those that just want to know about Snow. The Cold spell discussion should be used more for discussing other weather during the cold.

Thanks.

A band of rain, sleet and snow is expected to push westwards across Southern England, the Midlands, Wales and Southern parts of Northern England. Snow is expected to fall across Wales, the Midlands, and Southern parts of Northern England. Accumulations of 2cm to 3cm can be expected across the above areas. Up to 10cm is possible across the hills of Wales and the North (Pennines). Southern England is expected to see rain while the Southern Midlands might see a period of sleet. Ice may be problem overnight into Monday.

This was what i issued earlier


Changes: Accumulations of around 4cm to 6cm across North Midlands and Parts of Northern England and Wales. Up to 5cm further south depending on whether it starts as rain/sleet. High ground could see accumulations nearer 10cm.

Expecting snow all the way here with 3-6cm.

Its a good job i updated it. There was roughly about 4cm to 6cm across the areas stated. Some places on low ground saw nearer 10cm though (North West Midlands, Yorkshire area etc...) Im guessing high ground was a little more then! Not far off overall though. Further South also saw some snow. But only 2cm-3cm going by reports.

I saw 5cm of snow

Seems to be even further south. Will post an update later.

Wednesday snow risk looks to be North England into Scotland. Will keep an eye on it as the track of the low is confirmed

A band of precipitation pushing North during Tuesday and overnight Wednesday. Some light snow is possible on the leading edge leaving a few cm's to higher ground of the Midlands and Wales. Some sleet/wet snow for a time to lower levels. Precipitation does not look that heavy so 2cm-4cm seems likely as the maximum accumulations. Possibly up to 5cm-8cm on the hills of Wales. Rain across all areas other than Scotland and higher ground of Northern England during Wednesday. Some large accumulations possible. Will update tomorrow

Seems the accumulations for high ground to where to high! Snow has fallen as expected was sleety for low ground. It also seems snow was to wet to stick to higher ground with only a few cm's in the odd place.

We have a small dusting here now.

Yeah, some dustings possible in places as temps drop. Milder air is pushing North though so it would only be temporary. Dusting here at the moment. Milder to have pushed north of my location in the early hours.

Snow risk continues in Northern England and Scotland

Our dusting has melted away now. The rest of the week looks dull and a bit wet.

Still snowing here, got about half a cm on the car. Temp currently 0.9c, up from 0.7c
