Come on get to Leicester I hope I haven’t jinxed it I’ve told the kids now

The ultimate jinx! When I got up the band was headed straight for me, multiple snow symbols on the met app, so I thought it was safe to tell my daughter...now it's somehow not snowing! Just hoping to get something when it pivots round now.

[Shane]

You watch it split over the top of us then pivot!!!!

[mother nature rocks]

Easily 2” lying already ️

[WelfordRd]

The main band is slowly closing in on Hinckley. Will get get here and maintain its intensity. Fingers crossed. If it goes to normal form it will stall just to the south west and pivot. Let's see

My son saw the weather yesterday and got all excited, I told him the weather man is talking out his bum, when you wake up in the morning there will be no snow. Guess what.... lol!! Don't like been a pessimist but better that him waking up to this thinking we was going to get snow. Hate been right!

[andy_leics22]

So close now! I'm getting very excited Like a kid on Christmas morning, waiting to open presents! I'm so sad, i'm a grown man, for goodness sake

[snowangel32]

Heavy snow now

 

[Snowshine]

This is a dire situation here (Stratford). There's clearly some splitting going on and we seem to perfectly positioned in the centre of it!

Don't worry i just got told by my 4 year old to get back to sleep and stop looking out of the bedroom window!

[MKN]

Coventry to Northampton looks ideally placed right now imo, Leicester perhaps the Northern limit. 

[snowangel32]

It stuck from the 1st flake. You guys to the east are in for a treat.

Shane, honestly, don't write this one off yet. Telford still looks to be in a good position. Assess it again at around 10-11am and see what kind of snowfall you have by then. I would expect at least 5cm for Telford, by the time this is over

[Summer of 95]

Still coming down, smaller flakes but more of them, nice and white now 1cm or so (had to get the cat in there!)

Wow so close now

[MKN]

Not sure about elsewhere but the light stuff ahead of the main band of snow didn't actually result in any snow falling up to now.

[Gord]

Coming down really well and sticking with no problem. 
 

I think it will push through here giving us a nice covering as it does so. 
 

But yeah, whoever ends up under that pivot is in for something special.

My money is on Leicester.

[Barbmac]

A couple of pics. Still snowing here in west Malvern.

I am hoping you are right Andy, it just looks like the band is fizzing out right over us. My lad just wants to build a snowman
