We have had snowfall for a few hours now off and on sticking here and there. Is it snowing anywhere else or are we just the unlucky ones I say that as I hate snow.

I hate snow too. Here in the westcountry at the moment it's raining and not cold.

I love snow, always have, always will..

Monica, I wonder if you would feel that way, if you had to walk to work in impossible conditions, because you could not get your car out of the drive and public transport was off. Not easy, when you have RA.
On a number of occasions, on Police advice, we had to leave our cars at school and walk home.

No, you can keep your snow! 😉

Very wet in the South East.

This is my weather in Oxfordshire this morning.

Us too, in South Oxfordshire. It wasn't meant to come this far south.

I love snow, always have, always will.

We’re in West Yorkshire. Started snowing about 7pm last night. Quite heavy, but it’s melting now. Glad I don’t have to go out today!
Take care everyone xx

It’s snowing here in S E Essex, not settling as the ground is too wet.

A light shower here in Bedfordshire. It settled on the roof, not the ground though.
Keep safe everyone.

We are on the Shropshire/Powys border.Snowed steadily overnight.A fair amount on the garden and drive but the road not too bad as neighbours put salt down.

Lots of snow overnight here in north Manchester. Friends car stuck on her drive incline yesterday about 8.30pm, roads outside my home clear and I hope it will be mostly gone by this afternoon

We had snow overnight in North Leicestershire but it is thawing now.

I love snow, but it’s rare here in the South so causes havoc when it happens, I think the last time was March 2018.

Yes, Jaxjacky, I remember it well. The Beast from the East struck as I drove from Torbay to Portsmouth, making a journey that usually took about 4.5 hours last 15 hours! Poor DH in France thought I might succumb to hyperthermia as I bedded down in my car on the A31. Eventually, the Army cleared a track and I reached Travelodge in time for about four hours' sleep before boarding the morning ferry to Ouistreham. Quite an experience! 🥶

Quite a smattering in Staffordshire -no doubt the roads will be chaos for the drive into work for the commuters. Glad that’s all past me now but I do spare a thought for anyone who has to travel in it.

Forgot to say outskirts of Liverpool Merseyside.

We have snow here in N.Bucks. None was for Casey . It is laying in Fred’s and rooftops but thankfully not in the roads at the moment.

loopyloo Tue 19-Nov-24 08:00:41

And East London....

tanith Tue 19-Nov-24 08:00:01

Its now snowing in west London

This is my weather in Oxfordshire this morning.

Casdon Tue 19-Nov-24 07:56:43

Wet snow in mid Wales, not settling because it’s well above freezing here.

Chocolatelovinggran Tue 19-Nov-24 07:56:06

North Wales has had a significant snowfall.
Happy to say that I'm in the South East!

GrannyIvy Tue 19-Nov-24 07:36:03

Just rain in Cambridgeshire. We rarely ever have snow.

boheminan Tue 19-Nov-24 07:35:21

A dusting here in Oxfordshire

Greyduster Tue 19-Nov-24 07:32:42

As Wyllow said, we have a good three inches of lying snow here in South Yorkshire. The road is like a skating rink though. It’s very pretty, but the sooner it is gone the better.
