What's happening your way?
Currently thick and fast (oo-er missus) in Derby.
The sky is absolutely full of it.

Snowing again, not far from Oxford shock Quite heavily, but not sticking.

About 5 minutes of snow, otherwise glorious sunshine all day ??

Here in Berkshire we have had brief snow showers this afternoon and have just had some flurries around half an hour ago.

Springlike it aint!

In North Cheshire we have had blizzards on and off this afternoon but the snow melts away almost as soon as it falls. It's still bitterly cold; my outdoor thermometer said 1 degree a few minutes ago.

Sky's a bit threatening here after a short burst of snow. That wind is cutting with 2 degrees on the Costa Mersey. No buckets and spades today. Heating's on but the knee-caps are like ice grin

G/Net has been intermittent with a 502/ 522 Error this afternoon.

We had a couple of flurries, then the sun came out.
It was still perishing cold, though. (Outer SW London)

Flurries throughout the day here on the Herts/Bucks border. Now have 'white' lawns, plants and garden furniture. Bitterly cold hmm

Shandy you are on the Northumberland coast?!
You are living my dream ?

Heavy flurries this afternoon and early evening in South Yorkshire but nothing settled and all is now calm and the sky is clear and tinged with the pink of the setting sun.

Just starting again and judging by the sky, we're in for rather a lot this time around.

Hail after a 30 minute flurry of snow at 5.30. The ground is merely wet. “Feels like” - 1C but the temperature is noted as 3C here on the Sefton coast (t’other side of EV’s Costa Mersey), Fanny.

@FannyCornforth I'll give your regards to the beach!

Polarbear2 Tue 06-Apr-21 21:15:20

In South Yorkshire near the Peak District. Lots overnight and today but it’s gone now. Was gorgeous on Easter Sunday. Spent the day in the garden with family. Can’t believe the difference.

Hope you had on your sunscreen, Nfkdumpling! grin

Some heavy snow flurries here this afternoon (South Yorkshire) which settled very briefly but soon cleared. Very cold though.

We had a couple of very brief flurries of tiny flakes this afternoon here in southeast Cornwall.

muse Wed 07-Apr-21 00:09:18

No snow mid Cornwall. Couple of heavy hail showers though. Temperature first thing was -3°.

polomint Wed 07-Apr-21 00:11:36

No snow was here yesterday or today in Central Scotland. Sunny but very cold

Savvy Wed 07-Apr-21 00:16:16

Snow flurries this afternoon in the north east, not far from the coast, just near enough for those lovely sea breezes! It didn't last long, and didn't stick around.

Bitterly cold though.

M0nica Wed 07-Apr-21 10:14:03

-5 degrees at 6.00am this morning in Occupied North Berkshire( now known as Oxfordshire?

It is now up to 2 degrees and cloudy but doesn't look like snow

SueDonim Wed 07-Apr-21 13:46:37

Snow flurries and 3deg in NE Scotland today.

shysal Mon 12-Apr-21 07:29:38

Just a frosty morning in Oxfordshire when I got up, but a good inch or two of snow fell while I was in the bath!

Oopsadaisy1 Mon 12-Apr-21 07:31:20

Snow here in my part of Oxfordshire too, so much for our first day of freedom!

tanith Mon 12-Apr-21 07:32:05

Snowing in London too.

I live in rural Oxfordshire. At 7 am it was snowing - and still is - and settling. I have a hair appointment this morning so hope the roads are clear. Living where I do, the village roads aren’t cleared but the main roads are.
