Just looked out the window, it's only 19th November! It's that watery type of snow, I hope it wont settle. Please go away, you're not welcome, come back in January at least proper depths of winter, not the tail end of Autumn, in fact better still don't come back at all. We're meeting friends for lunch today, first world problem I'm hoping my hair wont get wet grin

I'm in the south east, what's it like in your neck of the woods?

The huge snowflakes disappeared pretty quickly yesterday, absolutely no evidence there'd be a snowfall on our way up to Surrey yesterday, well it was more sleet really. Boy was it cold though! winter coat and scarf but I could have done with gloves as well.

Today looking out the window it's bright blue skies, looks very chilly though, hoping nothing comes down from the skies I'm off to the hairdresser later. I don't enjoy snow, it seems everything grinds to a halt when it really gets going.

Snow? Hardly that here- a few flakes here and there.

Do wrap up, people!

LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW!

I'm in Cumbria, very wet and rainy, but NO SNOW!

I want the snow, the thicker the better!

Light covering of snow here - dog was delighted and promptly did zoomies around the garden!

I love that word - ‘zoomies’! It perfectly describes the way a dog goes mad in the garden!

Bright and sunny but cold again here, thank goodness.

Solid ice on the path and driveway earlier. I will go for my walk this afternoon when the temperature soars to 3°.

We're on the west coast of Lancashire. It's blue sky and sunny but it's only 5 degrees out there. I can see snow on the hills of the Lake District but nothing here. We don't seem to get much of it these days but when we do we know it's bad elsewhere.

Very cold here first thing this morning - the light covering of snow is lingering a bit here and there, but we've just been out to do some shopping and looking across to the Pentlands and various hills beyond, and they've all got a decent covering of snow and looking very picturesque in the morning sun.

We had a few flakes in the midlands yesterday. We’re doomed all doomed.

Snow in NE Scotland.

Snow forecast here in the south of Denmark, but so far we have only had minus 3 overnight and frost most of today.

It is early for snow here too, as the earliest snow usually falls on my birthday at the earliest, and that is not until next Wednesday.

I love snow, and anything is better than rain.

Cumbrian123 Thu 20-Nov-25 14:16:52

Top of the North Pennines. Loads of snow probably 5-6 inches
-6 overnight, not melting at all.

No snow at all in South Devon sadly as I love it. Very cold and windy today

sandye Thu 20-Nov-25 14:37:42

Cumbria, snow on the hills and bitter cold. 3rd frost of the year. I like snow but I'm retired so not so good for people still working.

Jojo1950 Thu 20-Nov-25 14:42:35

I’m in the north west. Cold dry and sunny.
No heating on just warm jumper. Yesterday was a teeshirt until the evening. I get very hot since having cancer.

Cazza1953 Thu 20-Nov-25 14:45:24

Snow here in North East England

Spec1alk Thu 20-Nov-25 14:48:30

Cold and sunny in North Wales.

Jaycee19 Thu 20-Nov-25 14:51:57

3 degrees grey skies and dry in East Essex.

Here on the Yorkshire coast woke up to snow and it snowed on and off until 3pm. Extremely cold. Normally it warms up when it snows. Yorkshire Wolds also affected.

Wazzam Thu 20-Nov-25 16:37:18

Merseyside here, no snow no rain just thick cloud and a very cold brisk wind.

Allira Thu 20-Nov-25 18:33:41

I think we must be in a corridor which missed the snow!

It has been sunny here all day; I had to go to the hospital this afternoon and the sun was really bright and low in the sky on the way. Thank goodness DH was driving. The traffic was terrible as well.

Central Angus ,where I am , has had some wet snow flakes today but nothing lying and it’s turned to rain.

Very cold though but we’re not far from the Angus hills which are on the edge of the Grampian hills and I can see the snow on the Angus hills.

The last 3 mornings I’ve had to defrost the bird bath. Very definitely got the heating on and my woolly jumpers. Hate hate hate being cold

Dianehillbilly1957 Thu 20-Nov-25 20:11:36

Sutherland Scottish Highlands. 4-5" snow, been snowing on and off all day, started to thaw slightly but by mid afternoon, blooming perishing -3! In for at least 7-8 during the night.

Snow yesterday and today here in York - looked like a blizzard at one point. Settled then melted quickly. Sun and very cold tomorrow so it might be slippy.
