[Derbyshire Snow]

The band of heavy precipitation from Liverpool through Oxford is now making slow but steady headway north east and with the ever expanding precipitation over the East Midlands, North Midlands looks to be the perfect area for the heaviest of the snow this evening and overnight as stalling should then take place for hours

[Severe Siberian icy blast]

Few NAE snap shots

Gonna be a very snowy night I feel , and tomorrow day is looking snowier every hour.

Tomorrow morning is going to be nasty trying to get work in stow for 8am !!!

I'm hoping when the precipitaiton in the East Midlands joins precip from West Midlands over the line between Leics/Derby it'll increase in intensity a fair bit

[The Wolf]

Really heavy snow here and sticking.

im at work in Kidderminster, just rain here, is there anything happening Quarry Bank/Dudley way

Just collected the kids from school in Kford.....it's chucking down 50 p size flakes .......starting to stick even on wet paths

Really snowing hard here now and the wind has picked up a bit as well...really getting excited about tonight and look forward to jumping around with the kids tomorrow...

[Paceyboy]

Im sick of where I live. Intensity is lost everytime something hits, its enraging!

[Adzyy]

Starting to feel a little skeptical for where I am. It's just pot luck that I bet we miss out and Coventry get pounded as usual.

[Potent Gust]

Both the latest GFS and NAE look great for snow in the Midlands until Sunday afternoon

[Bishop Brennan]

Snowing on & off here. Temp 2.2c, DP -0.3c

Always the same here with disappointment. We are both on naff low ground!

However, it does seem to be a warmer local spot in the summer (whats summer? lol)

Yep,, low in Tamworth aswell Potent Gust :-(

Flakes have got bigger ever since i started moaning!

Best thing that can happen is this stop know and come back with big heavy flakes at midnight-ish, it's melting everything and everywhere there's 2 inch deep puddles. Could be a disaster here tonight.

[Chunky Flake]

Boom Narnia in Wolves City centre

[German John]

Heavy snow here in South Brum since about 3.00 but not sticking yet

[Chunky Flake]

Grounds to wet at the moment to stick but will stick soon and then it will be fun times.

hi how do you find the dew point

[klippieboo]

Massive flakes now. Really blowing around too

[m3>535d]

Biggest flakes I've ever seen ......reminds me of a foam party lol

[Adzyy]

Just as I moan, it's starting snowing. Ha. There's a big blob heading for us going by the radar, but it's not particularly massive. Nice to see though.

[Derbyshire Snow]

Heavier areas of snow breaking out all over the north and east midlands. This could be very good indeed. Snow starting to settle on minor roads and pavements that had thawed around here.

[richbiss]

Boom! here too in Codsall, very heavy, has been for over an hour and sticking nicely now. Eyes down....

[Arctic Hare]

Not at all pleasant here: moderate sleet, with almost all this morning's snow now gone from the roads. 1.8 °C and not really budging. I fear I may be too far SW and too lacking in altitude to see much out of this, though I hope I'm wrong! As things stand, though, it's repulsive weather, far far worse than if it had been completely dry.

[Adzyy]

To be honest though, it's nearly April so this is astonishing that it's even happening.

Highlights the current marginality perfectly.
