Gfs sticking to its guns on latest run. But I believe you will be right anyway if UKMO and ECM are right wich looks likely it will be short lived hopefully. Even more important to get out and enjoy the weather we have now. 6 days of lying snow is not to shabby and still at least 5 days of cold left.

 not all part of the West Midlands had lying snow for most of us soon as it stopped snowing it got washed away in that sense the last few days snow fall has been very very poor for some of us.

I think you've mentioned this a few times but it just shows how varied the climate across the Midlands is.  Certainly across the Black Country there has been snowfall and snow lying at 9am each day since Monday.  But its interesting to note the effect of the topography, winds and even any urban heat island effect on snow and how long it lasts.  112 masl compared with around 200 masl for Dudley and surrounds surely helps matters if snow is what you are looking for.

Ive been out for a drive this afternoon as its such fine margins between places. Stourbridge has very little snow left apart from sheltered spots, yet down near bromsgrove and its a completely different story. The hills are covered, theres snow still on the roads in places and very little thaw. But i think the general trend today is that theres been a rapid thaw aside from sheltered spots. Not totally surprised.

 You’re right I did mention this a few times I think altitude had a major part to play to my sister and brother live in red now and they still have lying snow there elevation is 185MASL.
