(Southampton)
Very light but settling on car roofs. Have to admit I'm surprised, I thought the precipitation was staying very much further north and west of here today, with nothing here until later in the weekend. Nick |

(09/2130Z): light snow (often fine, seldom larger flakes) since above report - always in the 'just about' category; a few patches of snow-lying now appearing on grass otherwise no impact.

(09/2215Z): re-started, still light technically, but larger flakes now and surfaces picking up cover more readily. Off to bed ... morning should be interesting. (Wonder what the chap who devised the categories that go round many aneroid hall barometers would make of this lot :-)) Martin. -- West Moors / East Dorset Lat: 50deg 49.25'N, Long: 01deg 53.05'W Height (amsl): 17 m (56 feet) COL category: C1 overall |

(10/0340Z): wandering about so a snow report: depth around 2 to 4 cm depending upon surface; lower 'blacktop' surfaces: traffic OK - enough for children to get excited but nothing more.

(10/0545Z): even the children might not be excited. OAT creeping up - now +1.3°C, and snow cover already looking a bit threadbare (though 90%). Traffic moving without (apparent) problems. I can hear the A31 about half-mile south of us and that is obviously doing well.

Just let the dog out - got him in ( a good idea- he was left out all night two weeks ago or so) and noticed we too have had a covering of snow- just enought to see on the garden store roof. I had only just looked at the radar and thought it was another example of a return but no action. New stove working a treat - first day of action. The copper pipes with the water have been polished up so it looks and feels good! After two weeks of no fire much appreciated! R Hilton |
