Damn autocorrect lol. I'd prefer the wine too to night shifts lol.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

And now it's bloody raining here too!!!!!

[bobbarley]

Still early days rarely sticks this early in winter anyway

[Abyss]

Bit of wintriness in the early evening then temperatures jumped up to 5/6 degrees. I thought once the cold got here that was it for the night ha. 74pmh gusts at Malin. Just dirty ha.

[gary1365]

Few more wintry showers coming in but nothing heavy or constant.

[gary1365]

Still no snow but I'm going to go out in search of snow lol. Theres bound to be some somewhere.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Watch the roads this morning folks, looks like the temps dropped again. Another shower this morning with a powdering of snow this time.

[gingercat]

Was snowing heavily again here 9am to 9.30. Snow from last night almost gone though, must have got mild through the night!

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Must have got your shower ginger, lovely big flakes falling here

[Sperrin]

Good heavy snow shower there with us.

[mountain shadow]

Square root of naff all here. Forecasts have a heavy snow symbol for me around lunchtime. We shall see.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Snow rain snow, make your mind up weather!!

[gary1365]

I hit the sperrins there and saw lying snow and falling snow so I'm happy. The new car is awful on the snow real bad understeer and wont stop at all i think its the "eco" tyres fiat fitted it with they're like plastic.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Proper tyres are king Gary!!

[geoffw]

what has happened to the weather watcher from bangor - he used to be our regional mod?

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

He makes the odd appearance now and then geoff, think he has a lot on so hopefully we will hear from him again soon

[BornFromTheVoid]

No snow, but likely to be the coldest day so far this Autumn. Min of 1.7C (so far) and max of 5.1C earlier. Currently 4.3C and slowly dropping under cloudy skies.

I'm a big fan of winter tyres but it's hard to justify buying new ones when these ones have only done 4k miles.

[mountain shadow]

Probably got a life! He does pop in now and again.

Well that first cold spell was a let down.

[gary1365]

Yea it really was a let down even up as high as 300-400m it was only a dusting but it's only November bigger and better things are bound to come.

[Neiller22]

Well that was the ARTIC blast!! Wow! So if we are pinning our hopes on pm air in the next few weeks we will need a bit of luck I feel for us to be happy. The chase continues but at least it's better than mild muck! Could be a few good storms too

Yours was a "spell"? I didn't even get a snap! It was cold last night (night shift), today and tonight again, but the only snow I saw was on the M9 motorway about lunchtime... It was about 8 maybe 10 flakes of snow... Either that or I hit a tray of foam packaging on the motorway! Or a flock of very small white doves!!!

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Poor doves Rochey anyway let's not get down yet, it's still Autumn and it's looking like a nice dry sunny day with a lovely freshness about it. Get out and enjoy folks!!
