"quite a few areas"

Oh I'd be happy to see that kinda snow! I'm not far from the Morrison's in Denton *Tries not to get too excited**

Ah! I live on border of tameside and Stockport

Your further west than myself, so it gives a good chance also as I'm not far from the M67

I'd imagine with the showers coming in from the east, will be some accumulations in places. The hills may fizzle them out for here..

Monday 8 February – Sunday 14 February Colder, potentially snowy start to the week In mid-February, high pressure is expected to remain over Scandinavia throughout the week, keeping things rather cold. This setup is similar to the classic "Beast from the East" from 2018, and there is potential for some heavy snow showers for eastern areas for the first half of the week. This is very sensitive to the strength of the high to the northeast, so it is still a bit too early to accurately predict snow amounts, but the greatest chances are in the eastern and central parts of Britain. We have high confidence that the high pressure system will develop, and it will turn colder than normal. The coldest days will tend to be around midweek as the air from Russia finally arrives in force. Later in the week, the high in Scandinavia is expected to shift slightly further south and southeast, nearer to Belarus or western Russia. This shift should kill off any easterly winds through the North Sea, shifting them more southeast. This is still a cold flow for us in this setup, but much less cold than the first half of the week is expected to be. This weather pattern is also drier for the UK, so some crisp afternoon sunshine is expected. Without a cold flow over the relative warm North Sea, the risk of lowland snow showers is also lower. The main risk to the mid-February forecast is for the easterly winds to linger for longer into the second half of the week if the high pressure system stubbornly remains over Scandinavia. This would make for a very cold, windy week across the country, but more so for eastern areas where it will feel very raw outside.

6c currently in Stockport

Especially through mottram

It's so sad I found out over weekend and I was wondering why glossop online was offline again. They are trying to find someone to take over the site so it may be offline a while. RIP
