There's always Radio 5 DEAD!

Example...

Wednesday night...

"The west Midlands and Wales will see significant accumulations of snow". (1 inch? <_< )

"Lasting through most of the day with further accumulations possible". (Try a steady thaw instead! <_< )

I don't believe in the media hype, 'Snowmaggedeon' anymore.

As my late Nan used to say... "The weather is what you see it as outside".

Phil.

[lobbox]

Your Nan is so right god bless her

Any chance of 'The Exeter Fiasco of 09' affecting us Midlanders us in this way? <_<

Id love it...I doubt it though.. <_<

To be honest,23:30 radar update near enough officially states, we will get this snow..

[PurpleFizz]

Remember this is the point last night where it slowed right down. The angle it's in mind you might suggest that leicester will get some light snow before birmingham.

Wishfull thinking on my part most probably. B)

[Phil UK]

Doubt it very much, WMW.

But 23:30 MO radar suggests that we'll see at least some form of PPN. I'm thinking snow but also keeping a close watch on temp and DP to determine whether it be sleet or snow.

Looks to be intensifying and have something more of a NE tragectory as it happens.

Very touch and go whether it will reach Solihull/Brum and maybe further north but not too much further before retreating south east.

Whatever you guys and gals get snow-wise... Enjoy!

This is Phil. Totally knackered so off to bed!

Goodnight. Stay safe!

I disagree

I actually think itll get to us.

Im ramping this one up!

Whatever I have predicted during this cold spell I havent got wrong

Itll reach us..as snow! Im going for a good 3inches South Birmingham.

2 Inches North Brum.

[PurpleFizz]

2 inches of snow is fine by me!

Basically the people on the hill and the surrounding hills can expect approx. 30cm over the next few hours. Watch News 24 as they are talking about it now.
