This really has gone TEITS up, pure rain here, not even sleet.

[we_want_snow]

Should be snowing at 7pm here.......

[andy_leics22]

My live cam picking up the snow, just give and take when the 500w passive turns on and off, set it to high sensitivity!

Looks awesome, what elevation are you at?

[cold stoke]

well some very promising reports coming through at the moment, but on the edge of the black country here it is bog standard rain, with the odd flake.

no snow in stoke yet when will it turn to snow what about crewe

[jk]

Turning readily to snow now, Coming down quite heavy.

I'm singinnnnn in the raaaaiiiiinnnnn...

[Hailsowen]

Hmm... I knew it wasn't right. 'Apparently' the dew point here has plummetted more than half a degree to 0.1C in less than 5 minutes...

EDIT: Hm. Must have worked, because now the snow is solid, no more water mixed in. I wonder if I tamper with the thing I could make it go much lower...

Cheslyn Hay is roughly the same elevation as me I think, getting upto around 170m in places.

Similar scene here, starting to settle on the grass, don't want to look at the radar though!

Should have been snowing at 3am here if you believed the Metoffice website.

Radar looks awesome, lucky sod though. Here at 75 ASL it's pure rain, can't believe it.

Been snowing heavily in Telford for the last half an hour or so with large flake which is now giving a dusting

the question is, when will it stall? this is nailbiting to say the least, must be through mid worcestershire now

[kar999]

Danilel Corbetts just put up 2 big blobs of blue (rain) for my area (West Mids/East Shrops) all night with snow all around!

Been raining heavily for the last hour or so. Ground soddened.

And me! "It's not over til the fat lady sings?" Isn't that what they say?

And I sang, so it's over....

[we_want_snow]

[PolarWarsaw]

The beeb seem to forecast snow over us for most of the night and persisting well into the day tommorow - doubt it - but hopefully.

[camperstron]

I have a covering of SNOW on the table in my back garden!!! Praise be to the snow gods!!

[Nick L]

Temperature is dropping like a fat man. Snow getting heavier, flakes getting bigger and the lawn is getting whiter. Now, bring on the 10cm...

[cold stoke]

[Costa Del Fal]
