Few flurries here in South Manchester but nothing but a damp ground.

See the Manchester snow shield is in full effect tomorrow.\ (you'll have to zoom to see)....

Do you have any snow cover? 

[Iceaxecrampon]

North South West East....!!!  - forget the apps - just nowcast on radar so many conflicting reports - too much information? - Radr looks good for most of the afternoon for our region - maybe a bit more North too.

Stuck in work are any of these showers hitting oldham all i see are snow posts but none fron this joke of a place

Light to moderate snow

[karyo]

The Arome is also further south and band misses us. The southward corrections means now that London has a good chance for an all snow event. Expect chaos at the airports.

[chris78]

Heavy wet snow here,   settling in most places.

[frosty ground]

Looks more westerly  now 

[Mokidugway]

Had dog on beach, a massive 6 c western component to wind

I expected downgrades but this is beyond the joke even for this sorry region now.

Amber warning yesterday to likely drizzle tomoro..wtf.

A few flakes in st Helens with a dust on the ground but the shield is holding well.

Have to hope today produces...tomorrows all but gone..uttetly unbelivable

[Acupuncturist]

Chorlton snow dome functioning correctly as expected. Maybe there will be a better chance tonight once temperatures drop but Im not holding out much hope for tomorrow

Good luck to other parts of the region though you might still get a good covering at least

You've been unlucky. To be honest, it was only powdery early on and now just horrible slush out there.

 

 

[WillinGlossop]

Snowing at home in Glossop and flurrying here near Ashbourne should be nice drive back this afternoon.

met updating warnings... ??

Once the shifts south begin in those situations it is a done deal.

The South Midlands appear to be on the sweet spot now

Flying into MAN in a couple of hours. Metar says CBs and snow showers - happy for some good cloud spotting and maybe seeing lying snow from aloft! Not too many bumps though, I'm still recovering from my Noro bout!
