But it'll hit Kenilworth smack on

Keep the faith Foz . Anyone in for a shout on the streams next week!

And that's what you have to do in streamer situations... Hope!! You could be 20 miles away from a dumping... but you could be the sweet spot! Think I prefer frontal snow... more guaranteed (sort of)

... Then it's streamerville

Can I ask, when do people consider FI to be now?

I'm still keeping the faith for a more widespread Midlands dumping. There is still the 18z, 0z and 6z for movement in the right direction

Raining now ?

Edit: It's snowing

You're about 20 mins down the road and I've got rain at 100asl

Keep the faith, the rain will turn . And as for Sunday... Still many model runs to go for tweeks

Can only get Belgium on the app. Any pics? Arpege 6z has a "south of M4" event for sunday but brings in a weak line of snow for Sunday night. Lots of twists and turns to come over the coming days

Icon 6z goes for a couple of hours of snow Sunday morning.

Anyone else thinking slush fest?

GFS 18z going for more north west Midlands tomorrow

Anyone else just watching the radar on loop until it updates? Looks like the band is hitting Brum and turning to snow... Please keep going east

As it's that marginal, would it help if I turned my heating off?

So, may have just jinxed it! Just finished spraying my home made sled out of some very old ski's! Its ready... just need snow ❄!!

Why do i do this to myself!! Every winter, glued to the 4 runs each day... NW mod thread, snow radar. Jumping on the chase for a big dumping of the fluffy white stuff that causes fun for adults and kids with a change of scenery in a cold environment! My bliss!! I feel a little let down by this SSW, i know there has been a slow trop response and it can't be a guaranteed cold but still... why did the EC46 forecasts fail in this so called "easterly" we were supposed to get? Apologies for the rant, just been down the pub in disgust at the northern extent of this system, we were in the "sweet spot" a few days ago... I hope for a pep up in the radar... will be glued to it!!, and the lamppost for the night Hope everyone gets at least a little sprinkling, I'll take that! All the best Chris - Kenilworth, Warwickshire, 98m asl

We have link up of the snow to the north to the snow to the south west on the NW radar making a full band of back edge snow. Currently raining at Birmingham airport, snow incoming with fingers crossed

No, just bumped into ECM down the pub... tonights run will be a amazing then he'll wake up with a headache and a massive downgrade... potentially

Been a lurking for many years, this chace encapsulates me... but learning from experience it's all about trends, it looks like we are on the cusp of a cold spell, how cold? I don't know because I'm inexperienced. Mostly because i have seen patterns change at the last minute... and toys and dummy spat properly out of the pram! Let's hope the trend continues and we are all in the honey pot in a week or so. Keep up the great work Mods and the experienced posters... you know who you are, and i look out for. Let's hope for a memorable cold spell. ❄❄

Looks like i am in the sweet spot between Leamington Spa and Coventry! I'd say a good hour of light to moderate snow! Started already and settling and blowing around. Nice surprise!

Is this the 1st Stratford upon Avon streamer???

Snow picking up in Kenilworth again. Glad i made it to the pub

Looks like that heavy band around MK is moving NW towards Birmingham... heres hoping
