Sugar dusting left already.

[Hailsowen]

Ahh, it feels like winter over here. Tucked in a warm house against the bitter cold of outside and light snow falling on the ground.

Its great isnt it. Should be a good day tomorrow for us aswell regarding snow showers.

[A.J]

well, looking at the new beta V5 NW radar, I'm just about to have a quite heavy snow shower....luvly jubly!

[Costa Del Fal]

There is a very nice steady stream of moderate snow showers heading this way as long as they retain most of the intensity.

The snow shield is broken

Just has a shockingly heavy snow shower here, visibility dropped to around 200-300 meters with massive flakes and it really pelted it down, still going now though easing off a lot.

[Hailsowen]

Yes, the shows are getting going now. Hopefully they won't break up at Stourbridge like the first one did.

[BlueHedgehog074]

I'm still wating for the snow shield here to break, but I get a slight uncomfortable feeling that the triangular shaped blob (snow shower) may just miss me about 5 - 10 miles to the North.

Still, it is great to hear that some peoples' snow shield have been drastically weakened.

[Nick L]

Light snow here at the moment.

[kano1990]

no snow here

Im sorry about that.

[Nick L]

Wow, really quite heavy snow here now! Only a rogue shower, but it is still leaving a dusting

It appears that this'll be one of those times where one place gets a covering whereas the neighbour a few miles down the road gets very little.

I bet Stourbridge will get alot and not me just to the east...

Well this is lasting longer than I expected! Still coming down heavily with big flakes, everywhere is white now

These have to be some of the biggest flakes I have ever seen, absolutely huge! Getting quite a decent covering for a rogue shower, more of the same tomorrow please!

Fantastic, you're in a good position, could see a fair few showers I think.

Clear skies here, it's cold and frosty!

[Costa Del Fal]

Snow shower again here.

Quite large flakes here and falling steadily. :lol:

[Hailsowen]

Hopefully I can steal a bit of it! :lol:

EDIT: Looks like our theives are at work. Making a patchy white effect on the roads.

We must have been right on the edge of it. Infact the radar says i should of had nothing! Still snowing lightly here and its left the perfect definition of a dusting.

If the NMM is to be believed then showers maybe quite organised between about 10am-2pm tomorrow. Mainly light to moderate but as tonight has shown so far, some heavy too.

[A.J]

There's a beefy shower near chester..If it follows the same track as earlier showers, then should get an additional dusting from it in the next hour or so

[Hailsowen]

Hmm, maybe there's a chance of it going between and striking me dead on. :lol:

Either way, it'll take an hour or two before it gets here. So even if it does make it, I probably won't.

[Summer of 95]

Light snow showers around 2200-2300; left a dusting on all surfaces including where it melted in the sun this afternoon. Still had full cover at 9am Saturday so another snow-lying day; if Sunday manages it (which looks likely at the moment) that'll be 15 for this month, 16 for the winter- only 5 more needed to match 95/6.

[FENDER.]

Seems to be going mostly to the North, Stafford/Stoke. Going WSW instead of SW.Need to wind to swing more round to the north,

Stafford looks to be doing well though
