Midlands Cold Spell Discussion

[azores92]

Yes, quite surpirsed myself. Settled down to dinner forgetting about the snow thinking that flurry was it. Go through to the kitchen to feed the dog to see a dusting outside on the cars and snow coming down quite well.

Should be over soon looking at the radar. Although the radar isn't always helpful!

think positive gord! my tip is not to look at the radar, and just enjoy it!

[butler_son]

snow party in netweather chat!!!!

It was nice and quiet in there with me all on my own, now look what you've done! <_<

[Costa Del Fal]

Its nice when its snowing and the radar says not like now. Snowing quite moderately now. <_<

[ickledoozer]

What's new?

Did it snow in Nottingham then?

Now i'm confused, where does Milton Keynes belong? Here or East Anglia/South East discussion, even the Meto can't decide where we belong!!

I've been watching that bugger since it left the wash..it was on crash course with Northampton,then as it shifted just south could have had 2cm from that , now looking like i'll get 2 flakes.

[snowhope]

Where did this snow come from? None was forecase here tonight, but it is snowing!!! Just goes to show really that you can never be sure

[beccaboo]

Hey all!!!! Funky Friday it is then, and a snowy one too!!!! whooppeeee!!!!!!

Got home from work at 5.30, it just started snowing and then came down really well, stopped about half hour ago, it's left a nice covering all over, not disimilar to Tuesday night, will it snow again tonight though, thats my question!!!!!!!!

[Macey]

Rushden looks to get the edge of that snow. I'm gonna miss it :/

You are in the SE, but you are so close to northamptonshire you could be classed as us

It's the same with us in Northants ,we border Bucks, Cambs and they are classed as SE and East Anglia.

We are in no mans land

[we_want_snow]

Look at it in the north sea, by the NE coast, any chance?

Thats how I feel and yet I am more likely to share weather with the Midlands rather than Essex!

Funky Friday? Nutter! Almost sounds like someone's about to hit the town!

Unlikely to snow in the Nottingham area again tonight, but watch out for potentially heavy snow on Sunday night!

[lizzieloo202]

Did in Northampton, and looking at the radar there is a very nice blob coming down to this area, looks like you could be in the firing line as it look like the heavy stuff is just going to the south of Northampton.

It'll be bonus snow tonight, not holding my breath, be welcome mind

I'm just amazed how there has been no thaw whatsoever since waking up to snow on Tuesday morning, can't remember the last time that happened.

Your weather will be just the same as ours, nowt like Essex. your better off in the Mids thread, we are alot nicer people

[beccaboo]

That heavy snow shower is now missing Northampton by 5 miles and heading your way.

here ,did the MK post code ..

[Gord]

Well stopping here and breaks in the cloud heading this way.

That was an alright little surprise shower wasn't it? I'm assuming it bodes well that snow has travelled from the east coast to here? Even if it was just a little bit?

So do I in a sense, though can't really as I'm revising for exams. Stupid uni, eh! Port and lemonade though? I prefer just Port !

Unlikely tonight - showers seem to want to break up before getting to Nottingham (as usual), however the snow risk should increase over the weekend! We may get a little sprinkling tomorrow, wouldn't like to bet on it though!

[loopydreamer]

hey all! just got back from work! only snowed lightly here for 30 mins! are these showers gonna keep feeding down from the north east all night? hope so! i want more snow lol

[lizzieloo202]

Or Whitstable, or Brighton

It's nicer in here, I was brought up in the Midlands (Nuneaton, later moving to Wolverhampton and Tipton, spent time in Stafford and Leicester on the boat) so here I'll stay

[drgl]

Light snow here in Telford (TF4)

Well fingers crossed for some more tonight and tomorrow in any case!!!! Just hope I get my heating fixed tomorrow too ol!!!!!!

[andy_leics22]

Is anyone else surprised to see as many snow showers around as there is at the moment? I didn't expect to see another reload of PPN up in the North East like that, I thought the first batch would be the only batch and then showers would become fewer this evening. Instead they are still going strong and there is 2 areas of them continuing at the moment, 1 near Teeside and one near The Wash area.
