Default Light snow at Colerne

Looking at the obs for England I see light snow was reported at Colerne
(M4 corridor) for 7:50am. Further south than I thought the warnings
were for.

Cheers

When I first saw this I thought we had a new poster from my town:-) Only
when my eyes focused more did I see my mistake.

Anyway, here in Coleraine, continuous light snow started at 10Z and now
it's moderate, bordering on heavy. All side roads are being covered
easily.

Hi Mike,

The strange thing for me is that I have never visited the English
Colerne, must look it up on a map some time.

Some of the radar looked quite heavy in your direction.

Cheers

Yes, the snow was heavy from about 12.15 to 13.30. Then it became light
and changed to drizzle at 2.15 when I took my wife to work.
All surfaces, including gritted roads, were soon covered, but now there is
a slow thaw in place.

And then at 14.50 there was more snow in shower form, well behind the main
band. I wasn't expecting to see snow in the milder air.
