North west regional discussion

[captaincroc]

 

This is from the Yorkshire thread... looks where they think the streamer will be... The Met Office must assume not much will make it across the Pennines?

 

*Edit*

 

If we carry on the amber to our west then a lot of people will be happy.

So close to a Shower half a hour ago.

That close one Flake blew into the garden.

I ran out collected it and have put it on Display in the Freezer.

So near yet so far.

But am enjoying your Tales of The Beast From The East

It' poor for us on the coast, any shower just fizzing away, we had a 5 min spell of moderate snow but not one bit actually lied.

Think it' game over here now as far as snow is concerned, only a very light covering of snow and I can't see anymore accumulating now sadly.

It’s possible Merseyside could get some of this if there is a trough converged increase in precipitation

The streamer appears to have two fingers. I am touching the norther edge of the southern finger. lol

 Interesting gap 

[Liam J]

Most snow I’ve seen for a long long time, many years!

Streamer is still on its way! Please reach us!

[Frost HoIIow]

Snow picking up in intensity. 

[captaincroc]

Updated 6z ARPEGE has another heavy band of snow crossing at rush hour...that wasn't there (or definitely not as intense) on the 0z

I think jackpot looking at the Weather Pro radar for the next 2 /3h

[Day 10]

Interesting HIRLAM this morning which handled Tuesday morning's low very well.

 I hope these are troughs that are being predicted, then we might have a chance. 

[karyo]

Thicker snowfall now but the bloody wind just blows it away.
