0.6c now...still rain. What a terrible terrible winter this has been

0.8c here :/ Plain old rain ...

nearly in newport now the intense stuff according to radar. Anything happening?

Temperture is just simply not falling... its painful

Going bed in half an hour if nothings changed..

1.6c here, fallen by 0.4c in last 20mins or so... hmmmm

The NAE gets worse

temp starting to fall here.

SW thread saying its all moving sw now

Is the thing expected to head west?

You compare things now to what they we're showing this morning....

Temps are much higher here than in Birmingham... I don't think it's going to happen. Certainly not enough to cause disruption and give me an extra day off this half term

Temperature has fallen by 1.3c in the last hour.

This winter has been one big massive disappointment. And to get so close and have it all taken away from us and for it to go in to the SE of England AGAIN its taking the mick

Temp is dropping quickly 4.2c now but pfft this is well I can't swear:)

The NAE is very bad:/

I think its much warmer than first though too, temp is tropical 4.6c here....

no the NAE has the snow further west http://expert-images.weatheronline.co.uk/daten/proficharts/en/nae/2012/02/09/basis06/ukuk/prty/12021012_0906.gif

upgrade for west wales imo

If BBC graphics are right, we're heading for 12 hours of snowfall in the SE of Wales

10cm is possible. 4inches. Could be the biggest snow event here then since December 2010. About time:)

But who said the metoffice are basing their forecasts on the NAE? Im on about the metoffice warnings and time and time again, Londoners and people in the SE which is the majority of members on NW are confusing people else where in the UK, even some of the experienced forecasters. It's not just people in the SE but in the main it is. Instead of constant hope casting please can we have accurate predictions based on the current charts, radar. Personally I believe the metoffice, they we're spot on last weekend, they put my part of Wales in the warning zones just in case as there was a chance of disruptive snowfall here if there was a shift, they haven't done that for London so for me that suggests its highly unlikely to be in London and SE. This constant SE bias has been bugging me for a while

I'm not trying to create an argument here but for the members in the SE and London area which is pretty much most NW members can we please not be biased. I'm seriously getting confused to what's actually happening.

The MetOffice generally know what their talking about and have more high res models than we have access to. Their warning lines are for the west and midlands not the SE. If they thought there was a chance of the snow going in to the London area they'd have an early warning of it just incase, like they did for this area of the UK last weekend.

Would be nice if the west had a bit of snow this week yes? Last weekend I had about 1-2cm of snow and melting within an hour of it falling....
