A good inch of fresh snow in Herefordshire this morning and snowing well! Don't you just love an unscripted snow event (well it didn't look likely when I went to bed anyway!)

Edit: No sooner has I typed this and it's stopped!!! However, forecast for tonight looks good

00Z NAE looks good for us and Carol has just shown the nice white snow blobs on the forecast graphics from around 11pm tonight until 3am Weds morning - she reckons 3-6cm! Lets hope she will be right...

[shaky]

Is it me or does the nae have the midlands under continuous light snow for the next 36 hours!!

[Staffordshire]

It could get to us earlier, the first front moved alot quicker, and the earlier it comes the heavier it will be

I dont know about tonight, or indeed tommorow, just watching the radar NOW. The bands coming up from the south are getting close, will they go any further north and west?

[Summer of 95]

Nothing more here overnight, no thaw but still the temp cant drop more than a degree below freezing! See some places E of Brum got down to -4 or so, why cant it do that here? Only thing lacking now this winter.

[picog]

Just had a nice snow shower. Not much, just a very light covering. Stopped now. Looks like it was at the northern end of the west country/s Wales stuff. Temp -1.5C.

[Summer of 95]

Having said that, there are a couple of clear patches in the sky and the temp has just hit -1, clearly falling in the last hour before sunrise. Maybe we'll see that yellow ball today, this month must be rivalling Jan 1996 for dullness.

Nice crips day very cold, last nite dropped to -4 so all the snow is now ice, roads are very dangerous.

[I remember Atlantic 252]

-4.4C minimum due to clear skies, no more snow now

looking good foe snow tonight/tomorrow for west midlands on the latest NAE

Yeah and bbc, shows it reaching Stoke, but light at best for NE of the region,

[the lad sharp]

-5 according to the guage in the car. Beautiful day with barely a cloud in the sky. My brother reported moderate snowfall in Hereford about 30 mins ago.

[Wadey]

I'm liking the look of Wednesday morning

[Bishop Brennan]

Another light dusting overnight, and the temp got down as low as -4.6 just before eight this morning

Currently -3.7 with hazy cloud.

Maybe more snow tomorrow morning, 06Z moved it a little further NE, looks decent on bbc as well

Yup it looks like it could get into the east midlands aswell!!according to the gfs

[Summer of 95]

The sun has been trying to come out but not succeeding so far, no further snow but still at -1C. Looks clearer to the SE

[we_want_snow]

Would love to see some sun here!

And more snow of course

[beefy201]

The band of snow south of Hampshire is moving very quick and has our name on it :-)

[Ian Ballinger]

Wow the roads are dreadful today, doesn't look like they have been gritted at all, I lost count of how many times I was skidding

[ISAAC]

temp was -4c at 8am

any snow till Thursday will be fairly light in nature so not too fussed, maybe a couple of cm in southwest of the region.

however keep an eye on Friday, could be some huge totals of snow before it turns more towards sleet/rain. then thaw on Saturday/sunday

lets hope things stay on the right side of marginal

Yes certainly one Im keeping my eye on atm. Dont think its gonna have much impact north of Brum though. One to watch though.
