Good Afternoon All,

It has been snowing here in Coventry since before lunch. It hasn't added much to those areas where the snow had thawed but it is now starting to stick. :rolleyes:

We did quite well he yesterday with about 3 to 4 inches. As I am in the office it is hard to tell how much has been added to that today.

If what the meto rainfall chart is showing stays as snow then we should see a bit more yet.

My eight year old son thought yesterday was the best day of his life, he built his first ever snowman. :yahoo:

Good luck all, shame it is going to warm up after this. :drinks:

Good news from the Notts gang!

Let's hope it keeps changing and we get some heavy snow!

I'm meant to be playing poker at 6, but don't know if I want to now :rolleyes:

If we all stand outside and blow hard enough we might be able to send it North East a bit to you :drinks:

What your elevation?

I'm only about 90m and the ground is soaked from the rain earlier so snow is finding it hard to settle.

Not so good news to your south - still rain with a little sleety muck here in Grantham - we should be right on the edge of the heavier ppn now, so I'd be expecting any change to snow imminently, if it's going to change.

I'm heading out to Leadenham tonight if I do play poker, was hoping there'd be a bit of snow about as it's further south.

It has been sleety-snow all day since about 10.30am. Now starting to stick. The journey home from Stourbridge was fine until just past Hagley then even the main roads were a whiteout! Not driven in conditions like that for a long time. This morning the lanes were solid ice but at least the main roads were clear. Not much fun for rush hour traffic :rolleyes:

Well Thursday's snow is now forgotten about and now we have to focus on the front moving through currently. There is some snow associated with this front. Temperaures are now decreasing across many areas as the sun goes down for another day. Again there is another risk of ice today but the risk tonight is mainly confined to the inland areas not underneath this band of sleet, rain & snow. During the night the front wil move into northern England sleety near the coasts for a time before turning to snow overnight pushing off into the N.Sea tommorrow. Sunday and Monday are begining to be interesting but i need more information.... I will post either later this evening or tommorrow on the current situation with charts so stay tuned.

Keep upto date with Netweather

Keep upto date with Meto

Keep upto date with Weatheronline

I think some people need a 're-calibration' on the definition of heavy snow. I would say an inch every 15 mins with visibilities down to 50M.
