The Midlands Regional Weather Discussion 19/01/2018 Onwards

[Lisa Martin]

Snowing again here up in Warsop. Already got a fair bit up this way (seems more than Mansfield too!)

wind blowing a gale too! 

[Herefordweather]

Latest I’ve ever known the Met Office update their regional forecasts. Must be plenty of headaches in Exeter!

[Gracie]

Well I am in the Leicester triangle, and it's definitely snowing here!

Looking at the models I don't think it's going to be good news maybe you guys in the sw of the region might just be ok. Met have me down for 6 hours of light snow then nothing on Friday. Expect big downgrades in there warnings. Calling a bust on this one now.

[Snowy L]

Woke up to about half a foot of snow and still going. Credit to met app for predicting this.

[Chunky Flake]

Roads whiting over and it's falling heavily in Cannock 

[Polar Maritime]

Severe drifting and snow showers all night here.

[Vmistry]

[V for Very Cold]

Slight falls overnight, just very cold.... let’s see if today brings anything 

[Sparkiee storm]

Slightly further East but way South can't see anything but a dusting for North of Hereford. Seems to be dying and decaying badly also.

Not completely, some heavier pulses have developed in the front 

[I remember Atlantic 252]

snowing wind howling, look to be under the band from the Wash, looks amazing out there, could be quite deep exposed to wind

[tyson99]

Overnight approx 4 inches in north nottinghamshire

totally unexpected !!

so who to go with today ? Met office app has snow on and off all day 

BBC app as nothing all day 

[V for Very Cold]

I think someone’s put the Shropshire Snow Shield up (try saying that first thing in the morning )

Loads of typos

On the radar the current snow looks light, but its moderate with heavy bursts at times 

[gig1968]

Here in Birmingham the snow barricades are up again. Constantly watched radar yesterday and most showers looked as though they were going to give us a bullseye hit, before being deflected away. Just one or two made it across our snow border. I'm new to this but I'm looking at radar now and it looks to me that the snow is much further east into london. But is pushing slowly north and west maybe we could be lucky.

Yep West Midlands has been screwed over Snow to the North, South and East of us. And today has downgraded feel negative about today. Again BBC has heavy snow but Met virtually nothing. It is further East no doubt about that it's all about how far North will it get.

[I remember Atlantic 252]

-5,5 and blizzard like, unreal for here

[Kirton Snowman]

Decent falls overnight, schools all shut in town.

[weather_it_will]

Just some light snow in Banbury.

No direct hit on radar yet.

Light snow Dusting on the road.

 

[wednesburybaz]

[Polar Maritime]
