I would echo this. i am a bit of a lurker on this site as I dont really have the knowledge to contribute much. I lost my husband to cancer at Christmas last year and so obviously this year its a bit tough but coming on this site and following the twist and turns of our (usually fruitless) search for Cold and snow has proved a welcome distraction. Thanks to everyone who takes the time and trouble to post on here and I hope you all have a Lovely Christmas and a fabulous new year.

its moved so far North that Manchester is in Eastern Scotland and Newcastle is in the Shetlands !

I know the apps are generally useless in these situations but its still difficult to explain why BBC has me down for heavy snow showers now and right through the night where as met office has me down as completely dry Im pretty sure the met office is nearer the mark

John Kettley is a weather man, a weather man, a weather man. John kettley is a weather man and so is Michael Fish ( A tribe of Tofffs circa 1988) (sorry Mods - couldnt resist)

Met office says nothing but cloud here in South Manchester but BBC says heavy snow from 6 am right through to mid afternoon Please just for once let the BBC be right

On the plus side a really decent fall here in Chorlton On the downside, Ive tried to take a picture and just realised the camera on my phone is broken (the lens is all smashed ) Picture is all blurry (and on its side)

Yes the chorlton snow dome was breached but not completely. It was th best we have had this winter but id say it was 2cm max and its melting pretty quickly now. Still it was quite an enjoyable evnt whist it lasted

Obviously no snow here in South Manchester Lol. I wasnt expecting any so at least its not disappointing this time.

Well we didnt get any snow here last night either so I think that might just about be it for this winter. On reflection, even though we ended up with very little snow in my location again this winter, I have seen snow falling on a number of occasions and there has been plenty to keep me glued to the forums with lots of chances even if ultimately they didnt amount to much. Overall i think its been a pretty good winter for our region with a memorable event for most so Im giving this winter 7 out of 10 ! I'm ready for Summer now and Spanish plume heatwaves with some Thundery breakdowns

Chris R did you read my mind or something? You seem to have quoted something I hadnt said...but then went on to say...lol. Maybe its cos we are both from Crosby

Correction ...its not raining...its ice pellets. Cant see them against lamppst but they are visible on the bin lids....lol

Just been outside and......its raining

I dont know but the chorlton snow dome really is a thing!

The rain today radar is totally hopeless today. It has shown a weird little band of snow over Altrincham all day and that band is making it impossible to tell if the band from the south is creeping North or not. I'm guessing its stalled just south of us again. That and the rain shadow effect. Im going to try to convince myself that i hate snow. That way I can think how lucky i am to keep just avoiding it

Its the hope that kills you
