Really ??? No way it’s still light snow 5 miles down the road and about 8-9 cms on the ground

That was posted mid-January! :rofl:

What does it take for us to be under a yellow blob for hours on end, would get buried in that

whatever happens, it's not very often the middle Midlands gets a band of green snow crossing us. :-)

Don't worry. I'm sure precipitation will finally reach Stoke over the weekend. Just as it becomes too marginal for snow :rofl:

Well that looks to be that for this winter unless it gains some life from somewer. Surprised the models expected it to be still going past midnight.

Mini blizzard flakes falling now....need to get some of the heavier stuff before this falls apart completely.... Pushing over a CM/2 or so again now.

Looking at the radar it will probably be stopping here in the next half hour

Seems to have stopped for the time being here in Telford TF3, but it has totally covered everything with a good inch or two, thick thick stuff.

3am this morning I woke to a huge flash through the curtains and the electric went off. It came back on at 8:30am. My electric has been off and on all day. The workmen have been out there all day digging the road and doing stuff. Just checked and the poor guys are still out there now working away. Hat's off to the Western Power engineers, they've certainly earned their money today.

Snow appears to be lighter now in Walsall. Will start dying now

Not in my part of Walsall, still coming as heavy as earlier.

Still coming down well here, but Leicester is under one of the last remaining bigger blobs.

Yeah some intensification happening - look at the NW radar for Worcester then run the time back to 18:30 then compare to Latest...

Big difference and I’m on the edge and can confirm bigger flakes

Can certainly see some intensification in some areas at south of band.

Not sure about that. Overall its on its way out fast. We need something to reignite it

Patches of more intense PPN on both the SW and SE side of the band now....need that to continue as it moves north.
