  1. North Westerners mentioning the snow from Birmingham to North Wales that won't budge up to them
  2. That's really unlucky, would've thought it'd make it's way up to you from here or somewhere
  3. Absolutely chucking down in Shrewsbury, heaviest this winter!!! Getting thick now
  4. Is it the GFS predicting the 920mb low? I dread to think if that hapenned, devestation... The GFS usually overplays atlantic lows and no cross model agreement yet
  5. It's delivered more snow time wise than Friday Won't be a surprise to the people of Shrewsbury, we're a dry place compared to alot in the country, low lying alot of protection from hills so westerly's often weaken here and pep up again to the east Really is snowing heavy now, a great day for longevity of snow falling
  6. I said on the last thread it was just dying out It's belting down again!!
  7. MO have it snowing in Shrewsbury till 9am I can't see it tbh maybe till midnight, which would still be incredible and would be 14 hours non stop snow That's unheard of here!! Most roads are fine and passable bar a few cul-de-sacs but they are fine with care Shame about the thaw yesterday and midday today Deepest parts at probably 4 inches (guesswork!) Paths probably a level inch or 2 Edit: as I type it's just starting to die out Keep going!!!
  8. And still it snows in Shrewsbury Light and snizzly atm but that's 8 hours snow of sorts non stop
  9. Light stuff now here Scope to pep up again this evening
  10. It's hard to say how much snow we've had so far today Almost 7 hours straight snow now (so longer than Friday!) I'd say the deepest in the garden is at 4 inches, today has just piled on top Where the thaw has happened on the roads ad paths and other parts probably 0.5/1 cm Lots more to come!!
  11. I was born 1993 can't remember many good ones before 09, obviously there will be some but I was too young to remember!
  12. Think it'll be transient between light/heavy all evening now, lighter atm but alot of lamp post watching to start in an hour
  13. How great is it to see the kids enjoying themselves though? Growing up in the 90's 00's we were lucky to get snow like this for a single day a winter up here, some winters none at all 09 onwards really has been much better and it's great to see snowmen and sledging and people having fun
  14. It looks like even further NW from here are gonna get a pasting! Oswestry, Wrexham maybe, looking mental!
  15. Cheers mate Yeah it's piling down atm tiny flakes but it's all good! Looking at our respective forecasts it seems we'll have heavy till midnight, you guys just light so hopefully it'll improve for you!
  16. Yep that's 5.5 hours snow It's now the heaviest of the day and sticking again
  17. Getting bad in Shrewsbury now! Heavy blowing snow in the wind, small flakes Sticking on minor roads and cars again atlast! As expected the temp has dropped to 0 from 0.8 Could be an interesting evening!
  18. The thaw has been surprising this weekend, it so cold out there but that might be the wind chill! I've hit a max of 0.8 today You may be correct Dec 2010 we hit -14 one night I believe. What's the coldest this spell? -5? Still mighty cold but it's not built up in to mega cold You're right it has been a waste of 3 hours snow! But it's heavier again now and just maybe starting to stick again
  19. Heavier in Shrewsbury now. Been snowing for 4.5 hours Topped up a few areas a little, too mild to stick in alot of places so dissapointing. Had it stuck I reckon it'd be 2/3 inches on top of the 1/2 inches max we've got Really hope 4pm onwards sees it kick off here, should be getting colder and heavier Will update temperature in a mo
  20. I was harping on yesterday about the MO app showing snow all day Everyone seemed so negative What I've learnt this spell is the MO forecast is bang on within 48 hours normally, they revised yesterdays potential and upgraded todays, and that's bang on
  21. Difference from Friday That snow was dry and couldn't make snowballs Today's is very wet and sticky thus not sticking when falling to wet surfaces
  22. Been snowing in Shrewsbury to varying degrees for almost 3 hours Settled well initially, been melting for the last 1.5 hours though. It's forecast to get heavier later so hopefully will settle but everywhere is soaking wet Temperature at 0.9 Celsius Snow is still falling well Maybe start sticking soon Drifts in rare places at 10 inches Max depth about 2/3 inches widely 1cm
  23. After a promising morning, it might aswell be raining now as all the snow is vanishing!!!
  24. The snow that stuck earlier is melting, still snowing though
