Midlands Cold Spell Discussion

[I remember Atlantic 252]

I was wrong mate because it's snowing here !

yeah and here but do you reckon the heavy stuff to the south will make it here?

[andy_leics22]

STILL pure rain here lmao. Unreal, absolutely unreal.

[cyclonic happiness]

Heavy snow here now which is settling on all surfaces inclueding the road, which was gritted a few hours ago, but the rain has washed it all away.......I think we may be in for a tricky night!

[MKN]

ok seems to turned to puddles again need some proper heavy stuff to get the snow lying to begin with then theres a chance it could mount up a bit.

[NorthantsSnow]

I was wrong mate because it's snowing here !

And to think you were projecting one of the mildest Decembers on record for the UK!

Dear oh dear. That one was not your finest moment.

[andy_leics22]

If you want to see what heavy rain looks like then come and visit Leicester.

[I remember Atlantic 252]

suddenly blizzard like now, but not sticking, that wind is damn strong

[ISAAC]

snow settling on cars and parts of the pavements and roads but very gradualy due to the light precipiation.

If only it was heavy!

Heavy showers will give a good dumping here if they are snow. Moving up from the SW right now.

Do leave it out Andy its raining here as well and I'm half way up one of the peaks, its a shame but thats life.

[Serendipity]

I'm back with a can of strongbow AND GUESS WHAT!!!!

IT'S SNOWING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Snowyowl9]

It seems the further east you are in this marginal set-up in an east wind it`s more likely to be of rain,if it was a west wind that would favour the east midlands more for snow and less for the west,thats how I`ve found it looking through these threads.

[Supercell]

Andy, just wait until the ending of the PPN is in sight and it will turn to snow.

[Costa Del Fal]

Flakes are very small now. Front has almost passed over.

[evansc5487]

Still snowing here in Wolves; temp dropped to 0.7'c and holding, white over outside now, good base for they heavier snow to settle and build on, if it continues........

[Snowedunder]

Raining here. Heading to the peak district tomorrow, should be some snow up there tomorrow.

Chuck us one over please

[Summer of 95]

Well after 3 hours of rain with the odd sleety blob, we got some very wet snow which surprise surprise didn't stick (as it was still above freezing and the ground was by then sodden) now it seems to be dying out. All this latest "cold" outbreak has managed is to thaw out our frozen soil and leave the ground back in the state it was at the end of November. And this isn't just in Shrewsbury- just been down to Minsterley and it's the same there. Shropshire sucks again :lol:

[cyclonic happiness]

photo of here, will keep you all updated

[PolarWarsaw]

Still a sleety mixture here - the transition from pure rain to pure snow is and has taken too long - there are puddles everywhere and a heavy wintry mix falling, any accumulation chances are now OVER - event over and hype OTT as always - the rugeley affect yet again. As alwasy you'll understand my pessimism eventually guys.

[Serendipity]

Chuck us one over please

Here you go served with a snowflake too for good measure :lol: It must be coming your way Andy - if Stratford can have snow then so can Leicester!

[phil nw.]

STILL pure rain here lmao. Unreal, absolutely unreal.

You must have shot a robin Andy.

I am barely 20mls from you and it`s been snowing here for an hour and covering everything.

Have you seen villa`s match?

You should get some soon.
