Blimey, I obviously left at exactly the right time - there was a little bit of snow falling that started just as I left the house, but nothing was settling at quarter to seven. Scunthorpe's completely clear as well - although it's such a dump, the snow's probably diverting to Hull first

How was the bike ride this morning then

Its just started in Glasgow.

Nothing major yet just a light dusting so far.

No snow as such here, just hailstones all night and gale force winds that have lifted my gate off the hinges and over into next doors garden.

Swansea has evidently had quite a bit.....just waiting for Russ to confirm as I think he is not too far from there....

A 3 or 4 inch layer on snow down here, loads of disruption on the roads in and around Port Talbot - will get a pic in a few minutes.

edit:

Apologies for the poor quality picture - my digicam batteries are flat so you'll have to make do with a shot from a crappy SE K700i.

Many roads in and out of Townhill (the highest point of Swansea) have been closed.

I think it has affected the coast, more than inland (yet?), a colleague who drives in on the A46 said it was clear until getting nearer to work. I think we will get flurries most of the day, but it won't settle, now.

I was already going to wimp out of the bike ride due to the wind - the snow convinced me

Well its been snowing here in Glasgow for the last 40mins

Scarlett · 25-11-2005, 09:32

Well we have the frost on the ground and the big snow laden clouds i the sky but nothing yet...

I'm going to hang some washing out later though,

Absolutely Nothing this morning here in Leicestershire.
Its freezing cold, but no snow. Hopefully at the weekend.

Stephen · 25-11-2005, 11:06

well its stopped and been replaced by a spot of rain, which has also now stopped

25-11-2005, 20:44

Clear skies and cold in Rushden Northamptonshire...

Bugger.

Light rain on this cold night. Its about 1 degree Celcius right now and flickering between -1, 0, and 1, so I'm hoping at some point this rain turns to snow.
It would make my birthday morning briliant if I woke up to snow in the garden.

My wife was hoping for about 8"`s tonight but i don`t think she`ll get it!

And we had some snow earlier as well.
