North West Regional Weather Discussion 07/01/14

Most be a cold pool through the midlands tonight, Alton Towers is forecast heavy snow tonight by the metoffice, heavy rain showers here.

Snow at Alton Towers.No doubt it'll cost a small fortune to see it and the que will be miles long.And they advertise it like it's the first in the UK.Mind you it looks like they could be correct with that last bit.

No surprises there. So much downgrades this winter, It doesn't hurt my feelings one bit.

I had a feeling it would be to warm here for snow 7 degrees at the moment so a lot would need to change.

[SparkleS]

Its 5 degrees here. As far as downgrades are concerned, should have learned by now anytime their is anything interesting apart from wind and rain forecast, it doesnt happen, but when it isnt forecast, it happens!

However, gone very dark here!

Lol as i was saying!! Massive hailstones now!! See we had a downgrade and then got wintry showers

And we arent even on high ground here....ooh the winds mad too!! Saw the most gorgeous massive rainbow before ive ever seen in my life.

[damianslaw]

Snowline roughly 400m with the fells pasted white - on a par with the lowest level its been all winter so far..

[itsnowjoke]

Sunny now
