Midlands Regional Discussion Feb 2021 Onward

[Lisa Martin]

Definitely a bust here in Mansfield area. Sun's out again with rapid melt

[Adzyy]

Wish the Sun would bugger off, melting the roofs and roads.

[Storme]

We have like a snow mizzle effect going on. Is snizzle a thing?

Yep, in future, I’ll be looking for an easterly starting that is sourced from Siberia and starts after a proper frosty night.

Transition day on Saturday was far too sloppy! The ground can’t freeze up properly!

All good lessons though.

Yep in a sandwich how unlucky is that. But those Radars do have wiggle room so could still hit us.

Might be able to see it just missing us

 

[sheikhy]

And it still going!!fresh covering everywhere!!my wife at work about 3 miles away says there hardly anything there!!

[Dancerwithwings]

I’m Just clipping this lot to the south of me, light snowfall for now, but I’m sure this streamer will start to swing further north my way soon

[Gord]

At least when a thunderstorm misses you, you get the majesty of an anvil drifting by.

But we’ve got that to look forward to, (hopefully!)

[Stationary Front]

Just started snowing properly last 10 mins or so, starting to settle now 

[gig1968]

I think we are just a bit too far north in Shirley for the streamer 

[Matthew Gill]

what a difference a few miles makes!  pathetic here in Hinckley

[el tiempo]

Decent shower around 10.30ish for an hour but the intensity never picked up enough to stick, another shower starting now. Bit disappointing,  although I'm sure I saw Denis Quaid near to Newcastle library

We might just get a covering this pm as it appears to be back-building a bit north over in Lincolnshire.

Have had 5mins of snizzle, but interestingly it has started to put down a cover on the lawn, whereas flakes did not manage it.

[Polar Maritime]

Just got back from my walk, it's boltic out. Snow showers still ratting through here with drifting.
