Why does all your posts have the underline lol 

[MattStoke]

Got in another walk while the latest snow is fresh. A good covering over the old snow.

Small band of PPN just over Leicester now. Any update on this, Leicester folk?

We might just miss out on that heavier blob here.

It's moving SW as it sinks south, the back end of that blob might have slipped a tad too far SW as it sinks south over us, putting us in the bit in the middle that has already weakened.

It's certainly tight. (And I am being quite specific for my location)

Agree, does look as though the main band is just missing us to the West, although can’t complain!

Henhurst Hill, 50 meters making the difference then...

[snowangel32]

In West brom just started snowing here.

[ChezWeather]

Great afternoon here, still coming now but slightly more sleety, not too bothered because I've had my fun, even been sledging for old times sake

[smethwickgg102]

Does that big shower over Nottingham have our name on it... time will tell.

[Summer of 95]

Its definitely melting- its gone from the bins and similar objects- although a few small flakes are still drifting down. Dewpoints are definitely low enough and this is 95m asl so higher than some places that have had no melting. What is going wrong now?

[Gord]

Yep, as I thought, the heavy blob is sliding away to our west.

Got a light flurry going on here anyway.

I'm also watching the blob over Nottingham, but think the whole lot might continue to break up so hard to say.

But yeah...really can't complain!

[smethwickgg102]

Just started again in Tipton 

[davehsug]

Looks like the peaks are shredding the showers before they get to Stoke now, just the odd flurry.

[Klippieboo10]

Easing now.

had a full decent covering tho 

[Snowy L]

First shower has left a dusting. If we can get the Derby shower that wouldn't be too bad for the day.

[high ground birmingham]

Yep looks like from the radar everything is sliding to the west of Birmingham. 

[Gord]

Ok, shut me up if needed but...

The showers are more aligning east to west...

...Sooooo...

they're coming at us from more from towards Lincolnshire way...

...where there are no hills...

...see where I'm going with this?

Wishful thinking?

Probably.

Here it Alvechurch it’s missed us all day .... we do better from a low pressure coming from the west with low dew points .. oh well

[wolvesman]

One eye on the radar and watching that blob currently over Derby and the other on the Wolves game. Think I might take a weather break for a couple of hours and see what happens, but take any additional snow as a bonus as still have a reasonable covering. COYW.

 

[syed2878]

here by Villa Park it is starting to snow very likely

Just had the finest snow flurries, but nothing more than that. 

[WinterWilf]

I don't get how it can be 0c and a -1.4dp and It be melting away and rainy/sleet.. Great that it rained Before now the snow is falling it's just melting away. No covering at all here... Need some of those cold uppers model thread is always on about.

[snowangel32]

Nice and White here again. Blob incoming also.

Ahh! I'd settle for that right now to be honest though
