Midlands Regional Discussion 17/06/2020 Onward

[Josh Rubio]

It’s been very poor so far for us living in the east of the region. Received little to no snow. 

[MattStoke]

Gorgeous weather. A winter wonderland at Park Hall Country Park. Still only a very slight and slow thaw today.

[I remember Atlantic 252]

Day 1 of quarantine!! Snowy walk made it decent though, long live the lockdown snow

[Dancerwithwings]

At a 11am it started to rise above 0c today and now I’m back at -0.3c at 5:20pm....a cold day regards the mean temp, dropping fast now 

[RobR]

Forecast is 4c tomorrow but today it stayed frozen out the sun all day. Seem to be overcooked somewhat.

hope they're underestimated for tomorrow ,4C would be a full thaw! but aye, mon to Thur not much above 1, as not lost much snow

[DIS1970]

A fall of dandruff other than snow is starting to look more likely than any snowfall, looking at some of the latest images.

I would think so, but the automated Met Office forecast gives this

DWW...

Temperature dropping like a stone tonight.

Already down to -3.5C  (coldest of the winter so far).

My dewpoint is at -9.0C.Beginnining to think my relative  humidity readings have gone kaput!! 

Have just reset my annual readings so will start the new year with a clean plate.

Hopefully we will see some very low temperatures soon.

Happy and Healthy New Year to all my fellow midland coldies.

AND to you warmies - please do not forget to wrap up warm in the next few weeks!.

at least we're not the NW thread with negative nelly! was clear end of my walk, but now a kind of mist

[Arctic Hare]

Didn't quite manage an ice day today, which was mildly irritating (max +0.5 °C) but nevertheless a very nice day to be out walking given the sunshine and lack of wind. Temperature now down to -3.4 °C. It has -4.6 °C to beat from last night to become the lowest of the winter so far, but I suspect we won't quite get there as mist and then cloud may well stop things getting much colder later in the night despite the continuing partial snow cover.

Yeah I’ll admit it’s felt very wintry today which is nice. Temperatures were very similar here and the lovely winter sunshine has made it very pleasant. Lots to play for with the incoming easterly soon I am sure. Embedded troughs and streamers are possible if the setup firmly establishes itself so here’s to an exciting and wintry start to 2021!

[Dancerwithwings]

Happy New year to all  

[BarometerCat]

Happy new year ( he says peering at the radar)

[Summer of 95]

Happy new year all!

(See that band of precip making its way down through the NW has vanished into thin air, but it formed in 2020)

[the lad sharp]

HNY everyone! Light snow falling here! Very light but deffo snowing

[I remember Atlantic 252]

reckon quite a thaw today, already looks drizzly, the way it does when a cold spell ends, turns colder again tomorrow! see if any snow survives
