BRACKNELL (TF)
0900 ENE F2-3 6000 -SN 4/ST 5/CUSC //CI T-006D-020
RMK: at several times in past couple of hours, bordering on the
moderate category, but now very light; a light additional cover (see
below); visibility improved. Not easy to tell what the precipitating
cloud is, but guess it's from the CUSC, though coded as layer type; has
been steady since at least 06Z.
[ OVERNIGHT DATA (18Z - 09Z):
screen min: -01.3 grass min: -03.7 precipitation: (delayed to allow
melting)
other data: total snow cover (average/climatological) now 4 cm, with
maximum depth over grass 6cm; over paved/hard surfaces around 2cm; note,
local school closed, and apparently Bracknell roads are in a mess! ]=

.... 0950Z update ... very light snow; roads are not bad really, even our
local untreated road is perfectly fine if care is taken, and certainly
the treated roads look OK; I think the 'chaos' is due to people not
being used to the conditions rather than the weight of snow, but as
mentioned in an earlier [WR] thread, I suspect that snow has fallen over
earlier ice/melted-refrozen snow and it is *this* that has caused what
are obviously major problems locally.

.... 1030Z; the odd flake - heat coming up from road/paving now opening
up lengthy clear/black stretches, despite the air temperature being just
below 0degC.

NOTE: HAVE ADDED OVERNIGHT PPN TOTAL ABOVE.

1200 ENE F3 10km - 2/CU 4/SC 7/CI T014D-011
RMK: Can't work out if something very threatening is happening to the
north (very grey skies), or just some Stratus there; if the former, then
we could be close to a real 'dumping'! Otherwise, snow melting rapidly
now - most paved/hard surfaces clear, and snow over grass decreasing
steadily.=
