A throbbing 1 cm or so in deepest darkest Newbury.
My CrossClimates + Quattro will laugh in the face of such adversity on the 3 mile trip to drop off MsBeej, unless she decides to walk to work like last year. Me, I've stocked up on hot chocolate for a hard day working from home.
managed to get into the Jamaica Inn for a couple of pints and then set off again
Maybe you should give him a call and tell him to get back in off the road and stay the night for everyone elses sake.
Over an inch here in the Cotswolds and its still falling.
A wee bit chilly on tonights ride (-10C)

On the coast, we have a light smattering of snow. My neighbour had made some rather fetching car tracks in the cul-de-sac, looks a bit Bridget Riley’esque....
I expect the whole of the South to become gridlocked in about 11mins.
🤷♂️😵🚶♂️
All white then.
i see the police are begging those with renault zoes to come out and help keep england moving.
oh no the other one

Looks like it caused you to blow a seal.
A good few inches in Bristol overnight. Might be a sledging day.
I am dismayed by the inability of this country to cope with a little snow. The one that made me laugh was it was too dangerous for the kids to go home from that college in bodmin but the asda delivery driver managed to deliver supplies to them to make their overnight stay more pleasant!!!
LOADS of snow in Oxfordshire... staying home and Zwifting today.
Over an inch here in the Cotswolds and its still falling.
About six inches now in Cirencester, and still falling.
Where'd you live Daffy?
Virtually nothing in South West London
#fakesnowmageddon
Still falling in Brizzle. The city will go mad!!
Parked our car yesterday evening before it snowed. Had a call from a neighbour to say someone had T-boned it. Guy was leaving a note - all ok and sorted amicably. I thought I’d move it to the top of the road to avoid any more T-boning. And then this morning, this 😂

Whoever’s been driving the white 1-series has just given up and left it there. They’re great in the snow aren’t they. 😀
About a mile from Castle Combe, IHN.
We’re at about 4” at the moment and it’s falling steadily.
jeez that's a lot of snow DD. Do you have a snorkle?
Sweet FA here in Stourbridge 😏
Maybe you should give him a call and tell him to get back in off the road and stay the night for everyone elses sake.
Maybe she wasn’t the one doing the driving 🙄
11 hours to get from Exeter to Hayle!
-6 on this mornings run, bit parky, but nice n grippy underfoot tbh!

Typical Saturday in August?
LOADS of snow in Oxfordshire
We've had 5-6" in Streatley. More than I've seen here for some time. The hill is already packed
Typical Saturday in August?
Haha yes! 😄
Travelling to Brum on the train. Walking locally - in London - I put my Merrills on to walk through some mild slush to the local train, clear roads no issues. Got 10 mins outside Euston and WTF its a lot of snow.
Weirdly, the kids school has closed.
I'm about 6 miles from Streatley (North Moreton) and thanks to differing topography we've only got a couple of inches ("It must be the cold darling. Sorry.") but still the village pub will be packed at lunchtime with villagers who work in 'town' saying they had to take a snow day despite boring us with their 4x4 stories all year round. Olly meanwhile will have his 20 year old landrover outside, will have been working on the farm since 5.00 and will be trying to stop his raised eyebrows from ripping his forehead off.
The one that made me laugh was it was too dangerous for the kids to go home from that college in bodmin but the asda delivery driver managed to deliver supplies to them to make their overnight stay more pleasant!!!
Err.... you are aware that it's about 200m from the Asda to the College, on a main road. Whereas as the news has shown, you don't even need to be on back roads to run into difficulties in Bodmin and the area last night. I think one driver (one who drives for a living as well) doing a few hundred yards on a main road vs lots of drivers out travelling who knows what distances on minor roads, many of which will have been ungritted and on gradients - I think it's an eminently sensible shout.
We are snowed in here in Hemyock, Devon. OH had to abandon her car 100 yards from the house on the last incline.
Well for mild south coast Hampshire, where we’ve barely had anything and all the roads are clear..
...
Theyve closed the schools.
....
Despite the kids getting there ok, because there’s no snow.
Honestly.
Even next doors kids are complaining “why have we been sent home, makes no sense” I was told..
Is it me, or do any sheep with texel blood in them look like they are about to start a fight after you tipped a pint on them...?
10 cm! 10 cm in Newbury!
I've had to make cheese and parma ham on toast.
Fossy - whereabouts in Marple are you?
Definitely 7cms (we're at a high point near the ridge). Children making snowmen, igloos and sledging down the road. Still lovely and white out there now.
“Alexa”!!
Defrost the car 🚗 🥶😱
Is it me, or do any sheep with texel blood in them look like they are about to start a fight
yeah they look like rottweilers or something!
I'm greatly amused by the UK grinding to a halt and rolling live news coverage of a couple of inches of snow from here in Denmark. They don't even get as much snow as the uK here or grit the roads anywhere near as much but everyone is on snow tyres or amazing public transport and everything just keeps going as normal.
A bit of heavy fall through the night so it's a sledging kind of dah.
That car in my photo ☝️ is still there. 😂
Well. Just popped out to the garage and turns out it's decided to fair tank it down with snow on the Borders/Midlothian DMZ. Freya to blame maybe?
It's laying here in North West Cumbria, which is surprising as it was very wet earlier.
A ride, hike and ride in search of some VV squares and completing a little project of mine. I've now been up every summit I can see from my house (or from Aviemore in general).
We've had a wee bit of snow over the past few days too.

Looks like some fresh snow Saturday early for some of us.
20cm overnight in Åre last night apparently.
Sadly, I'm stuck in Stockholm, so my girlfriend will have to enjoy the fresh snow without me.
Properly big flakes coming down in Dunblane - not sticking that well here, but higher will be.
Big flakes dalbeattie too. Heading home soon so hopefully the rain will.return.
Oooooh! We've got some snow this am.
Meh, sleet.
Bothying last night and woke up to a lovely thin covering. Beautiful riding back through Rothiemurchus in the snow - and it's still falling.

So. It's snowing here on the Midlothian/Borders, err, border. Knew we were maybe due a bit but it's actually coming down pretty heavy.
had a few cm in Livingston during the afternoon as well in one big shower, all gone now.
Just on the train from Edinburgh to Glasgow and a bit of snow in the woods around Cumbernauld. Knew I should have brought the big coat!
Winter is coming!
3-4cm on Dartmoor this morning. Probably more on the tops.
40cm at the Cairngorm Mountain car park this morning. A9 closed between Aviemore and Inverness for a while.
-3 at home this morning. No snow, but a reminder winter won't let go.
Yeah, we had - 5c yesterday morning. Still a high risk of being caught out badly if on the mountains, especially as we've had daytime temps of 17c.
Nephew & wife* arrive today - she'll be pleased as punch if she can find some snow.
* her first time out of Africa 🌍
Car thermometer read -7 going into Carrbridge yesterday morning!
Currently snowing here in Aviemore
Still some sizable snow patches around despite the current heatwave 🤣

Always good to have an update. 👍
My weekly run took me above the snowline today 😉

Chucking it down with snow in Shropshire
The urban sprawl of Brimscombe, Gloucestershire is currently getting a treat of wet sticky white stuff that's a mulch of icy slop outside. The commutes gonna be cold...

An overnight flurry at street level (275m)
That's a bit more like it!!

Ooooh! Now that is snow.
Where's that? How high?
Cairngorm. 1245m. (but the snow starts around the 350-400m level)

Hello
😎
Stop it, you’re making us all jealous.
Right now I’m in Vienna. Been here since Monday, no weather to speak of, yet at various Christmas markets around town, we keep finding snow in the gutters. I think they’re bussing it in to make it look a bit more festive, but I can only assume they’re bringing it in from the alps. Weird
Still in Vienna. It IS snowing now
What's it like in The Lakes? We're heading up to Ullswater soon for a hike-and-camp and we're hoping for snow!! 🙂
A little low level snowfall overnight was enough to take me up to Glenmore is search of deeper stuff but it's not really here yet.
Still need more at altitude
5mm here in Marple. Looks very pretty though.
