Snow Watch: Midlands & C Southern England

[NorthantsSnow]

That heavier stuff on the radar to our south just never seems to reach us! It's a conspiracy, I'm sure of it.

Can't complain though, wonderfully snowy over Northants once again and I agree with Phil, February 2009 is already an unforgettable winter month and we're only about one third of the way through it yet

[Yeti]

You wont forget to tell Andy will you?

He is wisely staying offline XD

I will let him know when he's online, don't you worry, you can count on me

[Harsh Climate]

met office have removed the warnings for midlands, wonder if they are about to be upgraded??

[Costa Del Fal]

Its nothing special anyway atm luke, about a cm if that..

Still snowing albeit lightly.

Tom

Better than nothing tom!

The only thing its sticking to really is cars but even that is slushy rubbish.

They have only removed the early warnings.

Probably down graded

[A.J]

The heavier precipitation is now getting into Birmingham, edging slowly northwards, and I think it is starting to pivot now? Either way, I am almost certain to get that heavier stuff!

Yes, Nick, it is pivoting, a possible sign that its now getting near the end of its northward extent, the slide away to the South east may well be on its way...... not neccessarily a good sign for you and me and others NW of brum as the heavier band of PPN may not reach us....a game of wait and see, me thinks

They better not be taking them down for good!

Still moderate snow here and gusty winds and a temp of 0.4C and stable although pressure says 966?? Seems too low to me!

[lobbox]

Moderate and continuous snow here in Northants for the last hour.. nearly 2cm on paths at the mo

[Potent Gust]

Snow a bit heavier now but not sticking.

[I remember Atlantic 252]

still snowing but not getting any heavier and temp not dropping, probably stay as light snow all night now

Why yes look at that, the first sign of a downgrade I'm afraid folks, after all, the Meto have had this spot on so far ; )

Nice to see they're still out for some areas though Jed

[toonarmy32]

well looks look parts of dudley borough have drawn the short straw tonight. a wintry mixture here just making the ground soggier. shame really, but im happy for those who are receiving snow. may it keep coming.

[Nick L]

Folks, the ONLY warning that has been removed is the EARLY warning. It will NOT be replaced simply because it is an event that is happening, NOT a forthcoming one! We may get some flash warnings but I doubt it.

Another band to our south that is making steady progess towards us, winds really howling through the trees now

[kickiniside]

Still have heavy snow warning for Northamptonshire

[Harsh Climate]

Noooo! theyve taken down my preciouse warning for yorkshire!!

The snow seems to be turning more and more to snow quite widely, so Id expect some flash warning anytime soon!

No way can no snow be expected for high ground in sheffield for example. Emley moor has been reporting heavy snow for the past couple of hours!

[Costa Del Fal]

Finally starting to stick here now. Took way too long though.

Heavy Snow 1838 Mon 9 0500 Tue 10

Rain is likely to turn to snow at times during this evening and overnight bringing the risk of 5 to 10cms across the Chilterns and Cotswolds. Elsewhere, slushy falls of 2 to 5cms are probable. Rain or snow will clear eastwards overnight with a slow thaw of lying snow expected.

Taken down all warnings for the rest of the west mids area. Hope we get pasted now and they can look like mugs.
