14.8 for me please

Just nice to have some seasonal fog hinted at. Be interested to see what happens.

back to sleet again in worcestershire 75asl. not sure whats going to happen for the rest of the evening. Settled from 14:30 onwards on roads and paths. about another inch. Off to see what the experts make of the 12z

snowing like mad again, we had a fine lay6er of hail that has allowed it to settle on all surfaces again. Had about another inch in the last hour. Cmon!!!! Just south of worcester btw

Lovely Pics Snowing here since about 10:30 Not sticking though as started as sleet and I am only 75 asl. Malvern hills are probably getting some nice fresh snow though. I didnt expect this to be happening today after seeing the reports from last night. Nor did the met. Just goes to show really, sometimes you really just cant tell what is going to happen even 12 hours out!

The 12z has stole away the snow hopes that the 6z gave us in the south midlands. Looks like the event at the moment has been pushed further north and all that heavy precipitation will be falling as rain. Great day today though, no complaints. Saturday just would have been a massive bonus!

3 Inches in Upton Upon Severn. Best I have seen in 17 Years. Lovely views this morning across the malvern hills - Magic

I hope you just used Birmingham as an example of where it is going to snow north from TEITS as it is a big place where everybody knows. Now what you meant to say was North of and including Upton Upon Severn. (About 40 miles south) :lol: Seriously though this is facinating watching at the moment, and I cant wait for each set of Models atm. Remids me of the easterly that appeared last year to completely dissapear off the charts well within the reliable time frame and then to re-appear a few models later. All good fun and as we saw in the last little Snow storm we got, precipitation and snow fall can be very localised and changable right up to a few hours before it is due to fall. Cant wait for Thursday/Friday to see what the country gets.

Had a thunder storm earlier, no where near cold enough for snow here in worcester atm though, all precipitation was rain. Heavy rain though,

This guy reminds me of My old Geography teacher at school. If you asked him if it was going to snow this week or tomorrow he would say "yes" when you returned back to him after no snow had fell will he would simply say "you didnt ask where!" I have not actually read piers Corbyns forecasts for next week or listened to any of the Radio Broadcasts ranting about this, but how specific are they being? Are they saying snow for the whole of the Uk, or just high elavations in the north? What they are saying could be quite accurate if they are keeping it vague by not naming a specific area. If the highlands of scotland get a blizzard next week were the media wrong to make these statements? As teits said above if a snowflake falls on ben nevis its still snowed. (if its in a high wind is it a blizzard? :unsure: :lol: ) Its the same way that a white christmas is calculated; a single snowflake on the metoffice. (or wherever it is they say it has to fall) thats not a white christmas to me! but for winning your bet it is what counts. Do you judge someones forecast in the same way, can you say they are wrong if they leave te little details out? How much and where it will snow for eg. Gav

Viking that was superb. I love toliet humour! I actually had tears rolling down my eyes in the office. I am forwarding it to all the girls I work with! Great stuff mate. Made my week!

4.9

Extremely Heavy Rain in Worcestershire at the moment!!

I am lurker as well carinth but I must admit I was gutted when you took the thread down. Really glad to have you and it back on netweather. Always very informative stuff. Sorry about being off topic. I am off to lurk again now.

just had a very brief snow shower. gone now but still very grey skies

just had a brief albeit light snow/hail shower Nice bit of cloud appearing over the Malverns on the webcam at the moment

Massive snow storm in upton upon severn , just south of worcester bout 1/2 an inch on cars. sun out now though Made a snowball Sun came out fairly quickly after the storm stopped. Most of the snow gone now but it does give me faith for the rest of the week as we were not due to get anything till later in the week. A few more surprise showers like that and I will be an extremely happy bunny.

Woke up to the snow this morning which was nice. cloud has cleared now but it looks like the Malverns got a decent pasting. Looks awesome! All melted at lower levels by 9am though.

now sleet, been going for 2 1/2 hours though and not settled. nice to see some snow again though
