Snow - But not settling
 
Hi All.

Been snowing steadily here in West Wickham, but not settling due to earlier
rain. Has now started raining, but I expect as temps fall later, will turn
back to snow, and will hopefully settle.

Anyone got any reports near to me?

Cheers

Rob

no where near you but we had snow blow across the yard here in South Cumbria
about 4:30pm.
No sign of settling, only lasted about ten minutes but most we have had all
winter so far

Snow - But not settling
 
Here on the North Downs in Surrey conditions are becoming difficult with the
wind picking up and snow blown horizontal. It has been snowing mostly all
day but it is all happening as far as lying thickly above about 150 metres
or 500 feet. I tried to get to the higher part of the Downs on my way back
from an afternoon engagement but the road was becoming treacherous so I
turned back. The conditions at the top of Botley Hill 267 metres south of
Warlingham must now be extremely interesting with drifting now starting in
earnest.
Altitude really shows today with the bottom of my road with hardly any snow
at 80 metres and quite a cover 3cm to 4cm at 160 metres. A couple of miles
further north and into London nothing at all.

Almost true blizzard up here around 1400 this afternoon for the best
part of half an hour. It put down another 3cm or so. Lots of spin
drift for the rest of the afternoon making some sections of road have
visibility measured in feet and the drifts rebuilding across.

Not very nice at all then but the late afternoon was bright sunshine.
