Midlands Regional Discussion 17/06/2020 Onward

[Summer of 95]

Turned to sleet/ just about very wet snow, but ground which was frosty an hour ago is soaked now. Why on earth the rain? All snow and settling lower than here in Cheshire/Manchester/Staffs/East Mids

[syed2878]

moderate snow here now falling by Villa Park at 112 MSL settling on grass so far

[I remember Atlantic 252]

Wow, bigger flakes now, Stoke stuff here? or too far east

[nobble]

Heavy now

[DIS1970]

Looking at the direction of this event it may be drifting on a more W/SW path unless it suddenly drops south, so locally can't see this amounting to a great deal.

[BarometerCat]

stopped and then as i type starting again...i dont think this is looking like much. West Midlands on target maybe!

[Josh Rubio]

Snow seemed to have stopped for now but had a brief moment of big 50p flakes. 

[Midlands Ice Age]

Snowing now in Western Solihull!!   (central really)..

Temp at 2.1C , but the dew point is down at -4.0C.

MIA

[WinterWilf]

Quick update just sat in van.

It has now changed to rain on the windscreen.

Will melt away pretty quick with rain now falling.

Hope those below manage to see some

I think its heading your way, not moving fast though...good luck!

[moorlander]

Some people drive like idiots when it snows.

Blackshaw moor is never clever when it snows surprised there werent more bumps. And into stoke Bucknall new road cars are sliding backwards imto each other

[BarometerCat]

Big flakes, proper snow! will post photos if it settles.

Stoke is definitely the sweet spot today. Looks a good few hours left for them on top of what they have had already. Moderate snow here now sky looks looks loaded.

think it will be a touch further west, it's slowing here now in stoke but, I think it will track Shropshire border all the way down. so anyone in west of region get ya ski's ready

[Summer of 95]

Big wet flakes, very slushy but having a go and putting something down on the grass/cars/roofs/bits of the pavement. Still all wet on the road and path, and a lot of dripping

[MattStoke]

Snow clearing away now.

Cheshire Gap streamer tonight?

Got to be a good inch and a half of new snow so far.

Just checked the snow depth on the car roof as I nipped down shops t'get some milk (any excuse ) and it's sitting at about 5 1/2 inches in total  and it's still blitzing it down with 50p'ers.
