Had a wander over the park and there is around 2cm, maybe 3cm, of snow on the ground. Everything is white and so I am satisfied with that for now. Not enough to build a snowman but enough to make it look pretty and wintry.

Currently light snow on Telford, we've even got a slight covering. 

Where are you in Telford? There is nothing here in Hadley!?!

Morning all! My decision to take a few hours away from NW worked out nicely -- spent an evening chatting to non-weather-enthusiast friends and missed absolutely nothing. It rained for hours and hours, and is currently 1 °C and there's drizzly rain coming down. Bewdley has had no snow at all, not even a tiny dusting.

Feeling a lot calmer about it all than I was yesterday, though, and it's really nice to see that many have had something worth looking at. Maybe I'll get to report something before the end of winter, maybe not, but either way I shall try to stay as calm as I feel right now. :)

Got a dusting here in Tipton.  Bits on roofs and grass. Nothing to write home about.

Brookside. It's started to melt off the pavements so will all be gone in the next couple of hours. It doesn't feel particularly cold out.

Got a reasonable dusting at Warwick University on the edge of Coventry last night. Hardly anything was settling in Leamington when I left around 2am, so I was quite surprised to see this.

Finally started to snow at around 00:15 after hours of light rain.  Decent enough covering here this morning- perhaps a cm in parts.  Least it's nice and wintry looking now.

Presumably that's it now in terms of snow for the Mids from this current spell?

Overall would give it a 3/10, did see a few coverings and snow falling, but amounts were disappointingly low and temps never really dropped much below average for the time of year. Daytime temps didn't drop below 4c on any of the days and we only had one sub zero minimum.

No way! There is absolutely nothing here except very wet pavements/roads. Just shows how localised snow can be lol!

Woken upto 3-4cms here, very happy with that after reading some posts on here. I hope those who missed it this time will get some luck over the next couple of months. Plenty of time left people :cold:

The sooner the Atlantic pushes back in the better. This so called 'cold' spell will go down as one of the worst in shropshire history.

Woke up to a nice little covering here, no great depth but at least everything looks wintry for the first time since 2013 :)

Just woke up to about a cm dusting here. With very light snow falling. Can't remember last time I actually seen it snow in day light hours. Is this front from south West likely to bring any snow later?
