not enough to shout loudly about, but it's quite definitely there in the rain
- large flakes at that.

Not sticking yet.

Is it moving North or South Goro, i.e. towards or away from Northampton?

Have a look at www.raintoday.co.uk Geoff.
Snow showers are travelling southwest. You'll be skating at Little Billing
before long :-)

Goro and I are in the middle, North Notts, Sherwood forest to be precise
where it borders on Derbyshire and Yorkshire.
the bottom end of the Pennines are 15 miles or so due West of me.

I think we're due to get some tomorrow and Saturday. Overnight low
Friday/Saturday is forecast to be as low as -6�C (21.3�F). I think I'll be
staying in bed a little late on Saturday.

We had a good cover duering the night and it is still snowing, but not the
stuff that last very long once it is on the ground. Bit wet.

We had our first bit of snow around 14-00, just as the South African
innings was ending. For just about 5 minutes it was blizzard conditions
and I could barely see across the road. due to all that swirling white
stuff Now it's a clear sky again with almost no cloud and not a snow flake
in sight. Temperature out there is only just above freezing now at 0.8�C.
It's gonna be a very chilly night methinks. Fudge has deserted the warmer
front lounge and gone upstairs for a kip on the wicker chair in the front
bedroom bay. Glad he's taken his thick winter fur coat with him. :)

Just had another 5 minute blizzard and what was left behind has stayed:

No wonder Fudge has done a Gizmo, and cancelled the rest of the day.
Temperature out there now 0.2�C.

Around about 2 o'clock I was thinking that it may snow but I just got wet
stuff. I suspect through that there might have been some snow not too far
away.

I've just been told there is heavy snow in and around Glasgow and I've seen
some cars here with snow on them heading towards Glasgow. There are actually
a few snow flakes in the wet stuff currently falling here but it's too wet
to lie. Overnight might be a different story :-(

Seems to have levelled off at -0.6�C (30.9�F) now and not snowing, but is
that the calm before the storm I ask myself? :(

Got a covering here and floaty bits in the air. Weather station battery
dead, so no temp, but wind chill is bbbbrrrrrrrr. Methinks the morning will
bring deeper stuff. :)
