not here, but over 200m will see lots, but thaw during Wednesday

[MattStoke]

Just need this to stick for Sunday and Thursday's low to continue to correct southward.

Not too much to ask for

MO warnings say above 100 - 200 m and charts show snow getting down to low levels Tuesday evening to Wednesday morning. At 146 m I am feeling hopeful!

Netweather forecast for here going for 35mm tonight from showers, some torrential snow....

Looking good Will, Fingers crossed.

Meto Peak District for tomorrow. Temps dropped 3.3c now here -1.7c wind chill. High avalanche risk on the highest hills also.

Cold and windy with fleeting sunny spells and frequent snow showers. Gales are likely across high ground, often giving blizzard conditions and severe wind chill. Showers will be heavy at times with a risk of hail and thunder, particularly in the afternoon and evening.

High avalanche risk from supposedly 4" snow on the hills.

met office must have done a typo. Maybe if 14" fell that would uphold the warning

This Meto Peak District foreast is for 300m and above, While the avalanche risk is for the highest tops at 600m and above. I rely on this personally as will Will.. Due to our location.

Think you could well be wrong on some of that.

ECM also takes it further south. Midlands in the firing line for some of the strongest winds.

Very wrong lol. I’d expect snow at all levels come end of day tomorrow 

[Staffordshire]

Yes, it will be cold enough for snow at low levels tomorrow evening.

Not sure why 252 thinks otherwise, he likes the idea that in this day and age snow isn't possible 

[MattStoke]

3 hourly snowfall charts from the high res Euro4 model. Tuesday evening to Wednesday morning. Followed by the total snow accumulation chart up to Wednesday morning.

I remember Winnats Pass was closed by one in March 2013.

[Had Worse]

Yes.

I thought it was extra cold rain on my folically challenged head but after lampost watching, it confirmed my suspicions.
