North West Cold Spell Discussion 3

[James M]

Just been out to measure again, a nice 5cm/ 2inches now <_<

[Chris D]

Temperature here is going up. Front has passed though @ 2.5c. Seriously... Why is it going up? How annoying is this...

2.8c here now.

Dont get so worked up, my temp is starting to fall quite sharply, down to 2.7c now. Your time will come very soon...

Edit: Now down to 2.4 in a matter of minutes!

2.8c here now.

The traffic cams are showing heavy snow up on the M62......but also it really is battering it down on the low ground right across south Manchester.

Just a little further west in Warrington just a normal rainy evening, could be any night of the year <_<

Had some very heavy rain here for a time.

Took a drive up Winter Hill and it was even raining up there which I didn't expect.

Temp currently 3.3c and air totally asturated.

No sign of dropping yet.

Hopefully Mark Hughes will be stuck at the COMs and will manage to persuade the owners to let him stay lol. Otherwise if its snowing hard in Wythenshawe it means its coming this way too, still backbuilding on its back-edge of the Front as its trying to head South past the region.

Took a drive up Winter Hill and it was even raining up there which I didn't expect.

Had a phone call earlier from a family member that said the snow over Bolton had turned to rain.

[Solar Cycles]

Jeez......3.3c on Winter Hill!......what is going on?

[mcfcben]

snow has dried up in wythenshawe but clouds still look like they could drop something

[Chris D]

Thanks mate.

Looks like skies are clearing, but I wouldnt say they are clear just yet. Snow that fell through the day today (1-2cm) got melted by the rain just before B) . My equipment is either going mad or the front is much more active than I thought, the temp appears to be going down at 0.1c a minute!
