Here's some pictures ive just took when i went for a lovely walk.

Went out in sunglasses its much easier how heavy the snow was just

Still snowing moderately now with nice large flakes and snow level is building up here now, around 4cm generally though more in some spots.

It looks to me as though the band of precipitation to the east of Birmingham is pivoting and will eventually come across Shropshire and Herefordshire — if it does that will top up our 10cm snow very nicely thank you!

only you could come out with somehting like that...

lol....aye up!

Its running on the battery my man, I'm more concerned about dropping it in the bath...lol......Anyhoos, I have some light to moderate snow at my location....The western flank of this trough is fragmenting somewhat, but judging by the NW radar, the main frontal precip is pivoting towards the west, smack bang in my direction....luvvly jubbly

Just kicked off here again - biggest flakes of the day so far heading Stoke way.

[WestMidlandsWeather]

It better be! Its falling faster now thankfully, heavier than light but not heavy enough to be classed as moderate:D

[chin86]

[loopydreamer]

[conor123]

As you can see from the 2:30pm radar a really heavy spell of snow came over here, really looks lovely outside haha i feel like dancing :lol:

Going back out in it later when its thick enough to build a proper snowman.

Any chance of some of your snow getting across the border to Mid Wales???? Can you send some?

[Frank Trough]

just small flakes here in Wolve's.. :lol:

is there anybody else from south oxon/berks alive out there? Decent snow falling here now for about an hour. slight thaw and the snow isn't settling where it is wet....just wondering how much more to come?

..i only see a narrow ban of moderate snow, the rest being light stuff. The remainder of the stuff coming out of France needs to pep up a bit too.

From Reading, very fine grains coming down but snow is thawing I think it is done here.

[The Calm before the Storm]

Moderate snow now topping up our snow depth, settling nicely. I've got a good feeling about this....... :lol:

thats what the bbc24 just showed, will be looking to the NE later

[WestMidlandsWeather]

The radar shows its gone north.

Its right next to me, would like it to come south a touch though!

Yep, very shortly will it begin properly and there could be hours of it!

With 7cm here already in parts upto 20cm seems possible! Probably 15cm more really.
