No use going down the M6 showers, take the A49 instead.....

[The Wolf]

Got a horrible feeling these showers will go east of me and I will end up with nothing.

It's determined not to do anything but rain here.

Surprising as I thought originally we were well placed for this sort of event, but it just hasn't happened for us at all. Might get something tomorrow morning but not holding my breath at this point.

Have driven home from rushden to corby 0c pure rain no sleet nothing actually amazed today we had nothing.

Snow showers passing through. Just had a short-lived heavy one. Occasional hail too.

[BlueHedgehog074]

Heavy wet snow shower just broke loose in Eastern Solihull!

[Weatherman662]

Snow showers here Every 10 minutes or so. Slight accumlications but less than a cm.  Hope we get some more tommow

Send it here when you have finished with it

[nobble]

Just popped out 

that earlier snow shower covering has frozen solid :0

hoping for more ... radar looks promising fingers crossed

[davehsug]

Frequent snow showers. We have a covering.

[Weatherman662]

Snow showers here 

 

[Chunky Flake]

Any idea of we will get anything tonight. We had a heavy shower and have a dusting 

[snowangel32]

Ice will be a major issue later. Also radar shows many showers some will be lucky tonight.

Hi! Been awhile since I used the forum, formerly under a different name as I was in Wales. 

Was surprised to see we've had a little bit of snow in Pelsall, left a very slight dusting on cars/grass. Been in Sutton Coldfield all day and despite the odd snow shower there was nothing until you approached Aldridge. 

[The Wolf]

Sod all here and clear skies. Gut wrenching!

[mattcole2206]

This is nuts. I was watching the weather radar, and as soon as the "pink" snow clouds hit the Wales/Hereford border, then *pft* they disappear!! Im starting to think that there really is a snow-force field in place. I blame Brexit...;-)

I seem to be in a clean channel between the two bands of showers

Looks like I just caught the edge of that shower (I'm 5 miles north of town), the town centre missed it.

[weirpig]

Some of these showers seem to be merging could be a nice falling  somewhere

10 minute heavy snow shower and light covering.

 

[markw2680]

Generally I'd say we usually do well here from Cheshire gap streamers and that but who knows, all I do no is it will settle instantly as the road outside is a sheet of ice. Come on showers!!!

Anvil to my NW shining against moonlight, 

[The Wolf]

These showers are going too far to the east of me!
