It has been snowing here all day, but temp above freezing, so it is just wet on the ground. No whiteness at all.
-
I think it looks as though there may have been another westward shift. Snow may not be as heavy or extensive for us, but good for Ireland and Wales
-
I think it's meant to slow down and then intensify before bringing us a shedload of snow!
-
On the weather on Midlands today, Shafali mentioned that the snow could be falling at a rate of 3-5cm per hour!
-
Snow picked up a bit, but all the laying snow from last night has melted! Temp hovering around freezing. Nowhere near as cold as I thought it might be at this stage.
-
Light snow here (Ludlow area), and a slight covering from overnight. Seems to have gotten a bit heavier in the last 10 minutes, and radar shows precipitation beefing up! Maybe the snow will come early? Temp currently -2.0C.

Or Clee Hill near Ludlow

Quite, I'm beginning to feel quite depressed ...

I think so, but that is rain total and you need to convert to snow. About 1mm rain = 1cm snow, I think. -
If temp still below freezing it could be frost.
-
BBC maybe trying not to scare people too much! I think the other models are going for continuous cold away from Cornwall and extreme west Wales. Even Ireland looks as though it's in with a shout. Nothing here, but it's cloudy and -2.2C
-
Yes, it looks like the cold air may be too strong to allow the snow through to the west mids. Unfortunate if true, especially after the disappointment today, when we were too far west. Plenty of time for things to change.
-
All our snow has been washed away and melted. High tops (Clee Hill, Long Mynd) still white though. Heavy rain showers with spectacular rainbows a short while ago.
-
I'm not hopeful. However the metO forecast has heavy snow for us tonight, so it might get all washed away during the day, and be replaced by a nice pristine layer overnight!
-
From the dew point GFS charts, you guys in the E Mids should be OK for snow today.
-
Close to a couple of cm of snow here, but now raining despite temp being below freezing. No drips from trees, car etc, still all completely white. Presumably all ruined by the upper air temp?
-
I hope you are right!
-
BBC news shows it as rain In the west midlands tomorrow
-
Sounds like the next band might be snow! Still snowing here. Had about 1cm in 4 hours.

That's right, it depends on your view. For us in the west, that's an upgrade - the snow has shifted west. -
Just checked the light outside, and it's STILL SNOWING!!!!!
-
Lane is going white, but snow might stop soon judging by the radar:-(
-
Definitely pepped up, proper snow now. Settling on car. Also settling on wooden garden furniture, and the path, and the grass!
-
Very light snow just started here. Temp currently +0.5C
-
-5.5C here this am, so if the temp stays depressed all day, could get snow later. It appears to be "ahead of schedule", so might coincide with lower temps.
