As someone said earlier, the Midlands is such a large area, a few years ago we had a split with separate West and East Midlands forum, I think that is needed again.
For what it’s worth my thoughts for this weekend.....some snow Saturday night giving a covering Sunday morning, Sunday cold with odd surprise shower. Monday through to Thursday very cold with surprises galore!!

For those still hoping for something this is about the best... For 1am.

There’s plenty of showers coming into Lincolnshire area so will have to wait and see how the night goes, will they reach here and will they be snow or sleet
RAIN.....temp is rising rapidly...just been outside......drip..drip..drip
-
What we need is a classic Atlantic vs cold battle.....which if the cold wins delivers loads of snow...for a good 12 hours.. a foot of snow...and then a gradual thaw....but at least you get loads of snow

Hoping that area over Lincoln will hit me but I suspect it may just miss to the south east of me. Leicester possibly catch that?
I’m on my knees willing that to me if I don’t get something from that I’m giving up

Do you mean east of me, according to your location?
plenty more incoming and they seem to be intensifying as they head south west, I’m sure you’ll catch something. I think a few people will have a surprise around the region this evening. How long are the showers supposed to continue for anyone know?
Lol yes east of you....there is lots of ppn in the North Sea....I am hopeful of something...

Currently under that lot in red, bug 50p flakes
I am 4 miles west of you and nothing......enjoy while you’ve got it
-
A question hopefully someone can answer....why is the ppn traveling from Lincoln through Nottingham loosing intensity as it heads South West, yet the ppn west of Brum is staying intact???

Dou you mean this area of interest
Buts it’s loosing intensity all the time!!!
-
It’s definetly loosing intensity.....it’s typical..... this morning exactly the same and this afternoon the same...they used to say it was down to the the power stations, but a lot of them round here have closed now!!!!
BBC has me down for heavy snow from 5pm until midnight and Met Office have 2 hours of heavy snow from 5pm then 2 hours of light snow??? Who’s going to be right???

I'm not seeing any pivot, and it continues to move SW into West Mids and Wales, which is strange because the showers that appeared just 100 miles or so ahead over Woles seem to be moving SSE.
I agree.....if you use York as a marker it never drops below that and continues on a South West track....I am pinning my hopes on the area of ppn just off Hull/Grimsby based on current track.
One positive is that the later it arrives the colder it will hopefully be

That looks like it’ll sweep round and end up over us
I hope it does swing round......it’s strange how in the last 30 mins an area of ppn has developed just to the south of me!!!

You can see the band starting to pivot to a more northerly should be decent this
Something to keep an eye on if your right???
-
The main band of ppn just below Durham is definitely moving South West.....and not South!!!!! Liverpool looks to be in the firing line...to be fair to the Met Office their warning is spot on. Nothing of note for my backyard

Just now, sheikhy said:
Just mentioned the exact same thing to my wife!!we really are unlucky man!!
I know.......I am keeping an open mind for later.......BBC has me for heavy snow from 4pm and Met Office has light snow from 5pm....Hoping for BBC but got a feeling Met Office will be spot on!!!!!
Why do we do this
-
please can someone explain....those showers that have come via stoke were nailed on for me in NW Leics as they have approached they have completely fizzled out? Why why why!!!!!!
Although I would let the weather gods have that one, if I get to see some heavy stuff later, however all that activity in the North Sea looks like it’s going to go to the West of me!!!!!!! Arghhhhhhhhhhhh

Absolute rubbish again, rain rain, so much hype for the last 5 days, which I got suckered into...the GFS is rubbish at predicting snow, the models cannot forecast snow...Developing accurate snow forecasts should be the Met Offices priority. I am saying it now..l my area will be predominantly dry this week, we may have the odd shower but it will melt.... I’ve had enough now.... I give up. bye
