This is AWESOME! Snow flurries starting to get heavier here and to my East the sky is "black as night" as my dear old grandad says. Looking at the radar there is a stream of showers coming towards me that is stretching back to the East coast! Should make their way into the West Midlands as the day wears on too

That Country File forecast was something else - looks good for us Midlanders on Thursday too with a front stalled over us giving us even more!

Wrt what Andy said here is a good satellite loop to have a look at:

clicky

Currently sunny here but clouds whizzing along on the easterly wind -won't be long until I see a flurry I reckon

[valiant]

Don't know whether I'm east or west mids ... but we've had the first snow flurry here.

[cyclonic happiness]

WOOOOT!!! just starting to snow here!!! nice light fluffy flakes very dry looking stuff!

[Supercell]

I missed the countryfile, nursing a hangover.

Is it ever put up on the web ?

For those who have not seen the Country File forecast, you can now thanks to Iverweather over on TWO who has posted it to YouTube!

Look at Weds, Thursday and Friday for us in the Midlands! <_<

CF Forecast 01/02/09

[avalonstar]

First flurries of snow here on the Oxon/Northants border - looks very grey and ominous over Daventry.... <_<

[snowking]

Snow heading steadily this way too, should be here before 2pm, though accumulations might be a bit optimistic at this stage

[MrAdam]

[andy_leics22]

It's snowing heavier now, really fast snow grains coming down, cars turned white, grass is white

I have showed the way that the showers will go, awesome developments for those in the South East aswell!

Thank you vey much.

Certainly one of the most spectacular forecasts I have ever been. I just hope that everything finally falls into place.

[Potent Gust]

Snowing light/moderate now in Tamworth

[phil b]

light snow just started to fall here

[weather vain]

I see that there are some real possibilities of some further events in the week and no warm-up inbetween to get rid of lying snow !
