Watching that area myself (Wrexham) hopefully should be a direct hit, you first then Solihull 

Yes they've been just a little to far north. Some more also in the Irish Sea  bubbling up  fingers crossed

The ones of the coast of Wales developing are on the best course at the moment  should be ok for a few hours. Then into early hours it turns slighty more westerly.  Edit beaten to it

I reckon we're good for snow showers until around 3 am or so. Although need more to develop through the Cheshire Gap at the moment.

[Eye to the sky]

Must have missed that as I was in the bath and when I got out it wasn't snowing. There's more cover on the pavements now though and as I type this its snowing again now.

There was really heavy snow with massive flakes about 10 mins ago with what looked like gale force gusts, that was the best shower of the day, covered everywhere, gave 2cm from that alone, was madness  

[nobble]

Still flakes in the wind now

Just driven 23miles from Stafford back home to near Tutbury & it was blizzards all the way. Made for nervous driving through the lanes but exciting! Not much here at home but am hoping the blizzard will follow me! ?

[I remember Atlantic 252]
