North west regional discussion

[chris78]

Snowing here, fairly light, funny I wonder why this shower made it where others had faded, didnt seem any more intense than the ones that failed.

[karyo]

Hazy sun and light snow. The sun should disappear again soon.

Radar looks good - cant see why many doubt about a decent day of ppn?

How's Homer Simpson?

Neighbours having renovation works done and i've just had a slight chuckle for a few minutes watching one of the workmen trying to get their transit-van up the road without any luck, he's given up half-way as there's nothing but ice underneath the fresh snow. Amusing for a minute or two until remember i've got to be out in it at 11am.

Losing intensity here

[karyo]

I notice every time the wind picks up the snw is losing intensity and the sun tries to come out.

I once had a fall on scafell also. Many moons ago now. It’s surprisingly easy.

Streamer dying over the hills

[Thunder Snow]

Snow is really getting heavy buses and bin collections have been suspended. Does anyone know if the showers are likely to continue in my area, think ill walk to work just incase

Worse I had was Harrison Stickle - (the bit thats always in shadow) - lost a crampon - a boulder stopped me - cuts and bruises.

Have given in and took the dogs in the field. Wind strong and drifts starting to form in the lane. Snow deep enough to easily cover my boots and it keeps on coming!!

Just noticed a streamer setup for the south of the region in the next hour or two. If it hits it could give 2-3hrs of heavy snow. But whether it can survive is the question. I bloody hope so

Very heavy snow in Bollington and Macc. Thick across the main roads. Driven down to Wilmslow and the sun is shining and just a skittering

Beautiful pics. My dog loves the snow. Looks like an addict of some sort when he's finished. 

[Liam J]

Well surprised at all this snow!! Sat under a nice streamer... 

[karyo]

Completely stopped here and the sky looks less promising.

The difference with yesterday is that today there are no developing cumulus clouds.

[Frost HoIIow]

Just flurries here, hopefully something more substantial later, interesting seeing powder snow blowing down off the roof while I'm sat in the lounge.
