Midlands Regional Discussion 17/06/2020 Onward

Now under a really heavy area of precipitation. Pouring with rain.

Whomever is under that area of precipitation across Lincolnshire is either getting buried or flooded.

[Ryukai]

Nothing but rain here all day  Radar's showing sleet over us, but it's not making it to the ground.  that as the temps drop things might get interesting.  

[andy_leics22]

Can't believe how borderline this event is. 250m+ in parts of the Midlands and it seems to be snowing. Anything under that and it's just pure rain Oh well, I suppose it's still early days for Winter! *clutches at straws*

A double punch today to marginal for snow for most Midlanders. Medium to long term has gone up the swanny in all charts barring the mighty GFS. Only one thing for it move to Buxton Snow capital of England lol.

I couldn’t agree more, even the met office outlook is cold for December ( below avg temps ) better than mild drab....be positive it’s only just the start  of Winter guys

[nobble]

Picking kids up earlier it was really raw 

ice cold rain and a cutting wind !

as a few have mentioned it could be 11 deg and south west winds and rain ! 
no snow yet but it’s close 

a few surprises later I feel .

Don't forget Glossop as well! AKA Narnia

[Ryukai]

Hmmmmm...  Since the sun went down the temps gone UP! 3 hours ago it was about 2c and dropping , it's now around 4c and rising.....

So much for hoping

[syed2878]

Nothing but heavy rain in the afternoon and cold horibleible really doesn't sound too good met office long range outlook although they do say its low confidence.

[BarometerCat]

Big band of ppm descending sort of SE wards from the north...don’t tell me...more rain?  Still as others are saying this is still only the start of winter. Nothing mild on the horizon anytime soon. What’s to complain about? 

[Summer of 95]

Heaviest its been yesterday or today, and its still completely rain. Like others have said the temp seems to have gone up this evening, not that it ever really fell to begin with. 

[BarometerCat]

2c now and raining again. Still feels cold! 

[WinterWilf]

Evening all. I can 100% vouch that is has rained all day very cold rain for the second full day in a row. Day 2 of being completely soaked wet through delivering parcels not supprising considering it was a high of 5oC on the van dash

It was snowing in long Eaton at my sister's house must have been on the boarderline here in Burton as usual..

Not a problem onwards and upwards. Back to being entertained by the back and forth on the model thread til the next lamppost watching chance comes my way.

[DIS1970]

[snowangel32]

Exactly! Wasn't planning to bother checking until I saw snow comments here! Nice big wet snow flakes a fantastic surprise. Shame the precip we had all day arrived during the night instead, but nevertheless a great start to winter.
