This is mental in Shrewsbury, constant pretty much all day. Roads gridlocked, schools closing. Trip to London abandoned for the moment.
That's either great or very bad for you.
Glad you got some of the white stuff.

Until I see the snow falling im just going to tell myself its not going to so I don't get disappointed. This is what burton is forcast at 6am sunday.

What do you guys think about burton upon trent for tomorrow?
After last nights let down worried about sunday being abit of a non event or poor slush.
Just hope the models don't push the low too far north or keep it south.
Don't want to end up on the edge of that snow line as happened before.

Well we got nothing here in burton afterall last night. Even though forecast.
Although being in the warning for snow on sunday. I can see us being on the fringe and getting nothing again.
As usual no hopes raised here.

Well it was pretty rubbish in end for me thats the lot for the night none of it settled. When you have such a Good forecast and then it downgrades hour apon hour is abit gutting.
Temp due point conditions and forecast were all great which was worst bit.
Nothing on radar for time being.
Have this sinking feeling about sunday and onward for same old story.
Would love to be proved wrong on the day.
Congrats to all that had a decent amount.
Just hope these brilliant early winter charts arent duds in the long term.

Doing a night shift in a care home in Oundle (near Peterborough) tonight. A small band of snow is right on our doorstep! I keep checking the window when my collegues aren't looking ?
Neither is my wife im in bed streetlight watching she is annoyed. Band of snow directly on my location at moment streetlight says no! Just the odd couple flakes. Hope sunday pays off.
Edit its snowing pretty good now not settling as of yet.

Can you put your location in your profile?
Nothing too personal as you can just say Birmingham or Staffordshire if you like.
In the current situation, the BBC forecasts can drive you insane!
MIA .
Done.
Yes the bbc are very annoying. Looks like might get a slight dusting maybe. Concerned about the low on sunday will track futher north too.
Time will tell.
Temp 2.2 due point -3.3

Indeed the 18z has less snow for my location burton on trent on sunday which sucks abit to be fair. But still a chance of some decent snow just not those crazy totals of earlier runs.
Just hope it doesn't miss alltogether which has been the norm for many years now.
Fingers crossed.

Temp 2.3 due point -2.0
Burton on trent
Not sure if we will get snow here or not if we do it looks around 2 or 3am don't know if I can last that long.

Anybody else in here from Notts / Derbys??
Burton upon trent. Here I have been browsing the Mod thread religiously for last few weeks I can't believe these models are actually coming off.
Anyways we usually miss the good stuff here hoping that's not the case this weekend.
I will not hold my breath and take a pesimistic veiw. Then I can be supprised haha.
First post long time lurker thought I'd be better off posting in here than the strict Mod thread.
Used to live in oxfordshire missed it all then too.
Looks like me might have an actual winter on our hands instead of an extended mild rainy autumn til March.

Me to, but my work depends on the weather im a window cleaner and use a water system so if it gets too cold all my pipes freeze no money for me. Snow is not too bad just if temp stays below freezing... 1 or 2 degrees its fine.
So a poison chalice!
Love snow and cold winters and we never get them but also is bad for work.
Still hoping for snow can catch up on work it hardly ever snows here.
2010 last decent winter.
