The Midlands Regional Discussion - Snow

[Snowy Easterly]

just as it gets cold enough the front is clearing bloody typical,

off topic but don't look at the GFS its a horror show

[Coventry Lee]

The world's tiniest flakes are falling very slowly in Earl Shilton, Andy. I'll be interested to see if Coventry has had any when I get there.

This would have been a bonus anyway so I'm not too disappointed. No doubt we will be hit at some point, it's very early in the season yet. Now I can look forward to a lovely cold weekend!

[Beasterly]

Let's hope for a better event next time

[wednesburybaz]

barley rained here in wednesbury and quite mild out

[ISAAC]

Cheshire gap showers already in place. Good timing!

Reports if snow all accross coastal and inland northwestern areas so can only be good news. MetO going for heavy snow all the way till 3pm in stoke.

Im quite optimostic now

[Fozfoster]

Well no snow here was in sweet spot with MO but I said yesterday it was ify

[Serendipity]

Nothing here - went to bed at around midnight and we had sleet faling from about 11pm onwards. Got up this morning to nothing falling and no snow or even rain...

[azores92]

unsurprisingly, nothing here, we all knew it was knife edge and in reality, it was pretty unlikely.

[Fozfoster]

Same here S,looking at the radar there is snow to the north and south of us !

[ISAAC]

I'm not - it is 3C and pouring with rain !

Very odd! Have u read the snow reports accross the NW regional thread?

[Snowmad79]

Lol, reading this thread brought tears to my eyes, tears from the extreme fits of giggles haha

None of you had those big fluffy flakes yet then ?

[FreezeManiac]

Nothing here - went to bed at around midnight and we had sleet faling from about 11pm onwards. Got up this morning to nothing falling and no snow or even rain...

Same... So much for the amber warning by the metoffice -.-

[Gary-North Stoke]

Well i guess that was a surprise, waking up to what can only be described as ....er......Snow i think its called.lol coming down thick and fast in North Stoke.

[Soma]

A damp squib here too with the emphasis on damp. Made obs at 4:50 to see just wet ground. Popped out at 7am and its not even raining just wet ground with temp of 1 degree. Reminds me of the Xmas 2009 let down where it just rained and we all bemoaned the waste of ppn! Looks like some have done ok further south e.g. Gloucs so fair play to them.

[Barbmac]

Well, disappointing here in West Malvern, certainly had one cm of wet snow, so it's white out, but that's about it. I doubt it will survive long as the temperature rises (currently -0.2^oC). Didn't get as much snow as I was expecting earlier in the week. On the bright side, at least other half can get to work!

[ISAAC]

Yes, but it is raining and 3C at 7.30am,local forecasters going for 6C maxima later.

Well its snowing here Ian, and all accross stoke!

Hmmmmm

[cyclonic happiness]

Please tell me all is not lost?

Another dissapointment (I really should keep a tally as to how many times the weather charts have slapped us all in the face?).

OK, maybe the showers that are coming from the Cheshire gap can save us????

[XENA]

Plenty of showers feeding in through the Cheshire gap now..lets hope its gonna snow! Met O going for 3c max today.
