Up to 9 cm on my wheelie bin.

[Matthew Gill]

Isnt the front to the north supposed to be heading south and weakening as it goes? 

[cyclonic happiness]

Okay moderate snow here now and marked pepping up.

Still have a temp of 0.6'c and DP of -1.2'c.

[The Wolf]

The precip has certainly pepped up. An amazing event.

No, everything to the north and the west of us, has to come this way. We may get a surprise overnight after all :-)

This is exactly how I feel now that the realisation of work is here! Walsall are gritting at 4am, if your council does similar, you could be out at the best time, freshly treated and less idiots around!

[Matthew Gill]

True. at least I don't have to put up with all the people right up my backside who think they know how to drive in snow at that time of day I suppose.

That is spooky indeed, chuffed for all of you who got in the game over the weekend, appears could hang round with temps forecasted where there is deep snow 

[Walsall Wood Snow]

Snowing here heavily now with big flakes. I can see them in the dark with no outside light.

[RobR]

Arrived at work in Quinton and my god. The snow is remarkable. The car park was ploughed but has sent all the snow to block the spaces so it is impossible to park. Never seen anything like it!

[Fozfoster]

It’s stopped ? but what a a day yesterday. Stay safe all. 

[cyclonic happiness]

I couldn't see it getting this far north anyway. Maybe if something develops on its northern side then south mids might get some more. 

[Fozfoster]

Now stop it guys, your teasing me ?. 

[RobR]

Earlier the radar was showing it pushing across the Midlands again as snow, but recent updates keep it further south.

[DIS1970]

I think forget about snow now, it's the ice will be the problem, temp dropping away here now, falling away to -3.1C quickly.

 

[Weatherman662]

what?? Weather station says it got down to -13.8c over night 

[Zak 92]

So close yet so far ?
