Slightly darker blues have hit my area now, now let's see how long it takes to fade away.

Yeah.. frustrating.

Sorry for the other day by the way, I was being a bit of an idiot retrospectively . I know all too well it's super annoying with events like this.

Radar really moving any precipitation westwards quiet quickly now. Been watching the heavy stuff south of Coventry and it's not moving quick and is dieing, anyone west or north of Hinckley hoping for some that I wouldn't carry out to much hope

Started to snow again in coventry...just light at the moment

No worries. I know I can be a right miserable git lol.

[DIS1970]

And guess what, fading already, absolutely useless.

That' closer to Manchester than stafford

[Glacier Point]

Hirlam keeps the interest going into the early hours for the south west and west of the region. This and Arpege give 5-10cms from tomorrow's band.

You reckon it'll get that far north, i doubt it.

Just been out with the pooch.

Must be 2" level and almost 2 foot drifts. :-)

General consensus is this cold spell could last another 6-10 days , would this be your vein also ?

not according to bbc, 4 degrees on monday and tuesday, snow thaw in a flash with those temps

[MattStoke]

Looks so uncertain as to whether tomorrow's area of snow reaches the north of the region. What a frustrating week!

[DIS1970]

Looks like much this region has missed out on the worst of this snow event. Just small flakes falling, just looks worse due to the strength of the wind.

What an event this is turning out to be! Snow still coming down hard in Harborne.

Good accumulations especially the drifts.

[WinterWilf]

As long as it snows enough tonight to get my wife off work I'm happy.

Come on push north east! Forecast says yes but radar looks questionable.

I don't believe this bbc app at all.

bbc had it going into N England, patchy though

[VeryCold]

After a worrying few hours with spotting snow flakes in street lights, its now weather porn here in Wellesbourne. Moderate to heavy snow with wind stronger than an Aladdin's madras can induce. However brief this will be it's worth the wait ;-)

[el tiempo]

Nice prog about winter of 63 on Beeb 4 now

Is that the same BBC who didn't forecast this ?? Until it started this afternoon?

[snowstorm27x]

Never ending snow here, been a good snow event in the end and not over until the early hours. Chance of repeat tomorrow and Saturday. Up to 7/10 On my Beast from the East scale lol.
