2 inches of it here in South Staffs. I managed to sneak a small handful down Helen's back while she was eating breakfast :D She gave me such a belting.

Had a fair bit here in Stoke - took me a good while to get all the snow off the car.

We've had a little—tiny—bit, looking at my lawn this morning. Just what you need when you're still mildly pissed off about being back from your snowboarding holiday, this is.

Nah, I was in Switzerland & France. Not simultaneously, mind, but I was very able to hop back and forth. There weren't any guards to punch me at the tops of the mountains, either. I got so very many text messages from Orange telling me the tariff for whichever country I happened to be in that block of five minutes.

3 inches in South London and still falling.

And yesterday I planted out all my tender plants that were being kept sheltered. Oh, and bought a barbecue.

About two inches in South West London. I started a time-lapse recording in case the snow fell last night, so yay me! I'll let it run until tomorrow, probably.

We had about 47 flakes in Norwich about an hour ago. Could have been 48.

A few slight sprinkles here, nothing laying though.

Of course it would start as I was on my way back from the shops.

In the absence of Pupil, I will mention the flakes that are falling with some intent in Leeds, only to melt upon impact.

A sprinkling of snow. At 9:30 ish. (I got phoned up, look! Snow outside!) Didn't settle. :(

Certain areas of Germany have been snow-tastic over Easter. :)

I sort of lurked on WoS from time to time over the last 2/3 years, then made the journey across to here.Also decided to stop being a silly lurker and post a bit and stuff.

We should form a super cool teesside gang and type in a funny accent that nobody else can understand.Yeah.

It's snowing outside now, but it's been on and off since last night apparently.

The London snow:



I have learned: Clouds can go in different directions (seriously, WTF?) and to turn the auto-focus off.

I was the first person to see the snow here in Warwick on Sunday morning. I was in the office as it started, and when I headed for home at 4am it was inches thick, fine and totally unspoiled. It was gorgeous, and I felt conflicted about walking in it - I love the unspoiled effect but it was fun making the first footprints, too. I walked home mostly in the roads, crossing parks, housing estates and canals (snowy locks in near darkness are brilliant) and kept stopping to just marvel at it all falling around me in silence and darkness. There's a park near my new house surrounded by trees, with one lone tree in the middle of it all. I stood on a hillock and just gazed at the snowy swings and slides and trees all fading into the dark.

I heartily endorse snow as our next Prime Minister.
