Oh no.

Not more snow.

I haven't finished sweeping up all that snow from January and February yet.

What are we going to do?

Don't worry its just going to be more rain, hopefully a sugar coating on Friday but I bet that goes the way of the dodo come Friday lol.

hirlam 18z  is a bit tasty

10 day BBC weather mentioned "snow moving out of Northern Ireland into north wales and then into the Midlands, but more like wet snow as it sinks further south into southern England"

Sounds promising guys

Still differences regarding tomorrow!!gfs has snow more north of the midlands but ecm and hirlam have it pretty much slap bang over the midlands!!

[Dancerwithwings]

Shaky....All subject to change, but not far off now-casting.....Blimey!!!... it's been a while since that's been mentioned around here.

But yes! the morning could be very interesting for parts of the Midlands

Met office symbol forecast is all rain for here now tomorrow. Not a massive surprise though still not entirely discounting the odd sleetiness. 

Friday is downgrading more and more though imo to just rain. That low centre needs to come further south.

friday even less chance for high levels, big mild sector modeled over midlands, another wet day coming up.  Now there's a surprise a mild sector. this really is going to take the jaffa cakes no dout it will verify.

 

[syed2878]

Hardly surprising the snow forecast starting to downgrade it's been the story of this poor excuse of a winter. just had a heavy rain show about an hour ago. I hope it starts to warm up soon cold with out snow is not what I'm sure most of us want in spring.

[snowangel32]

Met app says it's currently snowing outside I can tell you now it's good old rain. Friday not looking either now this has been the winter of torment for snow lovers.

Same up here, was going for snow from 4am, soon be 6am, and its drizzle.

Ah well.

[Terminal Moraine]

A thin cover of snow here this morning ( about 1 to 2cm judging by a look out of the window ) after earlier snow showers.

[snowangel32]

Booked Friday off for a visit to Buxton so I hope you get plastered lol.

Temperature shot up when the precip arrived, why does that always seem to happen these days? Went down to 2C now up to 4, and boring light rain again. Just what's wrong with 2015/16?
