I said earlier, if only this had happened in two weeks time it would've been happening on Christmas Eve, would have been special!

You never know we could have a rerun by then anyway. Does anybody think there's a chance that a fair amount of today's snow could still be about by then?

[nobble]

Snow pepping up again now !!!

the never ending snow day ....

Hmmm band to the north and band to the south could join together!!very interesting!!

Would that stall both bands? One stalled north Mids and one stalled south mids?

Or could join together and we get one big band like how the hirlam model has forecasted!!if that model is right then we could get another 6 hours of snow!!

Heaviest snowfall since January 1982??

 

It's certainly the most I can remember seeing in Shrewsbury area since I moved here in Nov 1987.

Now 28cm/11" and still snowing

[MattStoke]

Met Office app now showing snow until 6am in Stoke. Also gives me a low of -10 tomorrow night.

[NixShep]

How Much have you got in Leicester>?  We have around 10 cm in Hinckley but its not settled since it became Dark really, nothing on the cars since they were cleared.   Not has much as others but happy we have a good covering   Hoping we get some later 

 

[high ground birmingham]

Crikey! Moderately snowing again and gone a little heavier. What a day/night

Says -9'c for tomorrow night.  That's the coldest I remember it being in years ... 

 

BBC TV forecast said something like -14'c for countryside areas

Coldest I’ve experienced was -14 in Kent in 2010. Tomorrow night could be the second coldest I have ever experienced!

[Raynee]

So what a snow day, I know it was forecast, but I often find the tv forecasts a tad overdramatic at times, but WOW, this one wasn't!! 

[cyclonic happiness]

Yeah, so they have a temperatue range of 13'c over the same area?? that has to be terrible forecasting, especially if you work in horticulture and rely on a correct forecast.

so what is it BBC, 0'c or minus 12'c???

[shaky]

Just drove back from coleshill and it was really heavy covering the roads back up. Got to nunea ton and nothing lol. 

[weirpig]

The intensity really picking up again on the radar. It's like a everyready bunny  green echos popping up everywhere. What a day 

[Staffordshire]

Light snow still going here

[DIS1970]

I've been watching this radar all afternoon and evening, and there must one one of those "snow windows " over this town, as the image was almost clear and also when i  looked at Telford's, Walsall's  & Cannock's BBC's forecast's all what was forecasted here was just light snow, but the other's were due heavy fall's, just as tonight's also. Very bizzare, also next to nothing falling here now, but it is elsewhere. Can anyone understand this, or is it just being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
