Alot of schools closing early today, if they arent already closed alot are letting you pick your children up early in Birmingham area today as the snows expected to get heavier says one school.. Think its just to make it easier on the journey home during rush hour to be honest.
-
Think its coming in light and heavy showers now until about 2-4pm.
-
Thaw beginning here in North Birmingham. This is the beginning of the end.
-
Apparently its 9 degrees by some beach near Devon right now according to the man on the radio whos driven down there from Brum today.. Blue skies, 9 degrees, people walking across the sea front.
-
Its brunettes that tickle my pickle. In weather news.. its still lightly snowing..
-
Thats not even worth joking about!!
-
Quite a few schools are now closing at lunchtime... Hardly makes sense, whats 3 hours going to do? The worst is most certainly over.
-
Lets not talk about football, The Super Saddlers (Walsall FC) are by far the best team in the Midlands.. Still slightly snowing.
-
I agree, us people from Birmingham/Walsall with the good accents need seperating from you Edit: I had to add Walsall as thats where I am originally from, moved into the dark depths of B'ham now though..
-
Its now light :'( That is it I think..
-
Footprints from half 7 in the morning across the garden have now disappeared. Pretty impressive stuff that!
-
Getting heavy again!!!
-
Seems to be dying off now in North B'ham here... :S
-
Some schools are closing now, pathetic really. If your going to close, close it before they've gone in! Dont bloody decide when the kids then have to make a dangerous trip home, either walking or getting the parents to make another dangerous journey from work back to the school! Argh! And some little barks took the snow from my wall :unsure: I want to see that get quite high..
-
Now, that in bold is good for me to watch, ill be honest. Well not hurt themselves but to see them fall has been making me howl all morning
-
Im literally crying here, still havent had the bacon sarnie I was gunna cook. Busy watching people fall over outside my house. Bloody brilliant, im in tears.
-
Traffic is terrible outside. Its gridlock on a gritted main road. The side road next to it, its taking people 10 minutes to get up a 30 second road. Once that, they get stuck coming out onto the main road. Its terrible. Doesnt help theyve opened the piggin` school so theres kids trying to run across the main road, only takes one to mis-judge the speed of a car..
-
Moderate snowfall here now. Truly amazing. It looks quite deep out, I went out into the back to the garage to get some steak out the freezer for tonight and theres easily 6-8cm!
-
With the rate snow fell last night gritters were fighting a losing battle on the main road outside my house, they had to come past 6-7 times. Its no surprise that alot of main roads are dreadful, schools should open later to be honest. The school opposite me is open too, it hasnt closed once throughout this cold spell! Pretty good going!!
-
I hope so! I think for you in Worcester it will, seems to be breaking up here though! Looks nice now though so im more than happy especially after I predicted a 'dusting'.. I could work for the BBC with my way off forecasting!
-
Time for a bacon sarnie me thinks, then sit down with a hot brew watching the snow listening to the radio!!
-
Im afraid to tell you, it isnt quite dying out, more to come throughout the day
-
Yep! Im just a few miles in luckily!! Its heavy but very small flakes. Its surprising how quickly it amounts though! BRMB Radio are saying it may turn to sleet later
-
Alot of unhappy east midlanders, it hasnt got much further East than Birmingham all night.
-
Think this may turn to rain throughout the day, sleet at least.
