What's the chances for the Midlands - Leics ? I didn't even think snow was on the cards tonight ? But I think I am too central to see the fun....

Snowsie - I was also a Saturday 'woolies girl'! I remember walking to work sat am of that snow fall, roads were not even visible! Got to work and the power went down! So was sent home but still got paid for turning up! I remember the lovely blue poly pinafore well!! And the blue striped shirts Lols.I also remember the 1990 snow event well. I was a Saturday girl at Woolworths and we had to close early because the power kept cutting out. Buses were all stopped and I remember a long snowy walk home in a polyester pinafore dress lol
Loved it !
No electricity or water for 3-4 days, remember flushing the toilet with melted snow!
Fav memories.
This was in Mansfield Notts.

yes you are right really, but feel the need to not waste the day and go and find the snow!!!!
Unfortunatley i don't have winter tyres and not the most confident of drivers in the snow if I'm honest, but Im just so excited...!
-
peak district maybe too far from Leics. how is the snow in Matlock anyone?
-
I'm really not familiar with it - town/postcode. also are the roads accessible?
-
Its my day off today, may take a flask of coffee and go for a drive, the question is - where!! any ideas on locations guys?
-
What side of Hinckley are you tornado - we barely got a couple of cm off - near nutts lane!

It was heavy snow here around half an hour ago. Now it appears nothing till I opened the back door and realised it is raining, light.. Looking forward for once to go to work tomorrow, Coalville always get it worse than here in Hinckley.... Saw a surprise amount of snow last weds when Hinckley never had a flake!!
-
Raining in Hinckley!
-
gutted we missed the snow, it sounded truly amazing to watch, even if its arrival would be only temporary
-
the best part, for me, is seeing snow fall, being out in it whilst its falling. its a shame therefore it will get to us sooo late, i wanted to be out in it, for what it may be the last time this winter.... i may be the daft one then wrapped up and walking the streets later then!!!!!!
-
not leicestershire though?
-
Well amazing day, made the most of it, sledging, snow angels, made a snowman and an igloo.... Walked in it, kicking it and just taking it all in. absolute bliss! Hope you all made the most of it too. It's great watching it, dreaming of it, but need to be out in it and make the most of it. Now drinking a large glass of wine and remembering the magic of it.!
We have at least 20 cm on a flat surdpface, more on the grass and whee it's drifted. Truly amazing here. Happy

Heavy snow symbols now showing for Hinckley on met office website, at 12 and 3pm. Woop.
They are obviously not so concerned though, as still only yellow warning...

there are fresh weather warnings out for the Midlands tonight. There are non posts about it, so i take it they are a 'waste' of time?
