any1 no if theres more snow to come over west midlands as radar shows it slacking now

[Shezale coventry]

Very small flakes now in Coventry but lots of the stuff.

Do you think it will get heavier for us?

[hollisk]

Here in Stourbridge (95 ASL) We have 6.5-7cm on the pavements and close to 10cm on the grass still moderate-heavy snow falling!

[fourseasons]

Do you think it will get heavier for us?

Snow is very heavy here ...

[Gustywind]

Still no sign of it slacking here, heavy snow continuing.

[Aamar Farouq]

East Birmingham: 5-6cm now. Still coming down Mod/Heavy.

[RobR]

And it falls still...not the heaviest snow but must have added a few CM in the last hour.

[The Calm before the Storm]

[Luke]

Yep, and looks like plenty of showers to follow when the band eventually moves through :-)

[i love snow]

I fell back to sleep and just woke up to very heavy snow blizzard conditions drifting. Best snow I can remember in years :-)

[syed2878]

morning all midlanders. How r we today? Isn't it beautyful today this is the kind of weather we crave all winter. Snowing kind of heavy here long may it continue and give us a winter to remembor.

[ISAAC]

conditions are very much deteriorating in stoke. Amounts are topping 8cm and we are hardly half way through the band.

This will be a memorable event.

[Wadey]

Looks like the showers will just add to the back of the band

[tom_f123]

Continuous dandruff like snow here, never really got heavy, blowing about in the wind, nice covering.

Band seems to be weakening somewhat looking at the latest radar.

Quick pic of back garden.

[Barbmac]

Snow very fine but still falling heavily... touching on 10 cm now.

[nobble]

Level snow 8cm more in drifts has been light snow for last half hour!

[Arctic Hare]

Still falling steadily here, so those in Birmingham etc needn't fret that it'll stop any time soon! A bit lighter than it was, but still blowing around nicely.

[Gustywind]

I wish it would stop soon so my wife can get home, but don't see it happening anytime soon.

[PolarWarsaw]

Band is now fizzling out, but its left close to 3 inches here.

[Bishop Brennan]

It's been absolutely belting it down here for the past couple of hours. Classic snow event in the making!

Bish

[Gustywind]

14 cms here now, heaviest fall since feb07 now, should've overtaken that record by lunchtime. Heavy blowing snow continuing.

[hammy]

Judging by the welsh thread, its just started to snow heavily again!

this is not over by a long way yet i dont think
