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.

Here in Dorset (Somerset border) it started with some sleet around 7am this morning, we were on our way to do the shopping. By the time we'd been to Tesco and then Lidls it was proper snow which gradually got thicker. It has pitched despite the damp ground, at the moment it's back to the tiny flakes.

It's unlike Devon to be snowed in, but schools are closed here and roads impassable.

Here in south Hampshire it’s very cold and it’s been snowing, but it’s not a heavy snow, although it is lying.
I’m cold ❄️❄️❄️

Snow here in Dorset.It is the first time my cat has ever seen snow and I think she blames me for it! She is looking at it through the cat flap and crying but has no intention of venturing out to explore the strange event.

Storm Bert on its way for the weekend now, weather warnings galore.

Not me.

I know in Scotland there may be some snow in November quite often, especially in the hills, but to me in the South of England it's quite rare. I don't remember snow falling before mid December most years, and even then it didn't always lie for more than a few hours.

We haven't seen any snow since Tuesday and I would quite like it to stay like that, at least for the next month or so.

Heavy snow looking beautiful on the mountains close by, hope it stays there too but just a sprinkle here. Conwy, but 4 degrees, heating on.

Very little here on Pen Llyn but all the mountains are white and very pretty

There was snow on the ground earlier this morning but it’s gone now (Northants). The weather is forecast to turn milder for the next few days.
