[we_want_snow]

Been an odd day in Shrewsbury

What was there has thawed. Very localised event even in just the town though, quite interesting

[shaky]

Has anyone noticed that temps are still close to freezing across the midlands and north of england!now whats interesting is the fact that the cold front is very close by now and yet temps are still very cold!!maybe a chance this next front can fall as snow!!leeds and bradford are still reporting temps of 0 degrees and the front is just a few miles away!!

[TootyFruity]

I have noticed that also no sign of a thaw here yet and no rain at all it did turn slightly to rain but now nothing no heavy rain nothing not even snizzle

It certainly was weird, leaving a full snowcover here in Harlescott to find only a smidgen left in Monkmoor, and nothing at all at Meole. This was around 3pm, about 2 hours after it stopped snowing here. It apparently turned to rain and thawed in town while still snowing here too. Thats barely 2 miles away!

[TootyFruity]

Supacell I would like nothing more xxxx

Have you had a thaw yet there's no heavy rain here and no sign of a thaw x

[Bishop Brennan]

Don't forget me Supacell x

And me as well - we'll let Supacell do all the driving!

Its thawing quite quicky here, i can hear it pouring off the roofs and its raining lightly. Still white on the ground though but probably not for much longer

Bish, i would reckon the tour driver would be driving lol. I drive and chase in the uk, but in the US i would leave it to the experts. Need to do a bit of saving first though.

[TootyFruity]

Raining here now still White on the ground though ...

[Bishop Brennan]

Lashing it down here, can hear it against the window. Oddly enough, the radar suggests nothing over at the moment.

barely any snow all day at work just 5 miles west of shrews in hanwood today , just shows how marginal things can be

[Fozfoster]

All gone and raining here. Now waiting for the next cold rush !

[Supacell]

It has been raining on and off all night from what i can tell (although i have been asleep lol) but there is still snow on fields and gardens. The road and pavement is completely clear now though. I didn't expect to see anything left this morning here, I bet the Peak District still has a decent covering.

[Bishop Brennan]

Very heavy rain overnight means hardly any snow is left this morning, just a few patches here & there.

Looking forward to seeing some sunshine today

Well yesterdays snow was far better for us in Nottingham than the non event that was sunday. Sods law it was just so short lived.

Looking forward though to a few days of dry & less cold weather

Yes, plenty of snow left here. Averaged undrifted depth is just over 12cm; 99% cover.

The snow is thawing steadily though.

0ther way round here, mainly, anticyclonic gloom for foreseeable future, from tomorrow really, relief to have little if no rain, but shame likely to be no sun either

[Costa Del Fal]

A lovely day thus far here in Falmouth. The sun feels nice and warm and there is barely a breeze! Early taste of spring!

Been 11c down here today. Noticeable warmth in the sun now.

[Dancerwithwings]

Not to bad here today patchy cloud and a bit of a breeze temp around 8c

its just been nice to see the sun

[PolarWarsaw]

Good start to the 12z UKMO.
