Some low lying roads now being closed near me because of drifting snow. This is the Prestbury Wilmslow Road

Pennines and saddleworth could get another big hit if that radar is correct

[Thunder Snow]

Wish thos shoeers would make it over

Around 30 minutes ago there was a big gap around Stoke / Crewe but its now filled in.

Doesnt mean **** though as its not snowing here even though the radar says otherwise

This does bode well, snow further North than on the warning area.

Perhaps that's where it comes from, a bloody big gap everytime snow is forecast.

Local NW BBC weather shows cloud and a few flurries. I think it was recorded as Louise Lear showed a different outcome.

If in doubt, look at the radar.

Wind is relentless, I don't know if it's just because it's from an usual direction, and the icy tundra out there, but it feels brutally strong and gusty.  It's only showing 30-40mph on xcweather though.

And a pi*s wet through gap when it rains.

Sorry, my fault.

Spilt the pink paint and its gone everywhere.

Sorry to get your hopes up.

It's definitely expanding now through Chester and South Wirral.

[cheshire cat]

Looks to be two bands pushing NW, One goes right over town (Mcr) and then another has a more southern trajectory, in Alty I may get lucky and get something from both, 5 miles in it for the second band

It's funny you say that as I was only thinking the other day "Why don't i seem to remember 2013"...and it's because it wasn't memorable here. I know I'm frustrated about the lack of snow but I know it's just because it's such rare synoptics (sub zero temps) that I really want to see a proper event. I have seen some amazing things but I don't want to wait another 20 years until I see it again!  

Snap! That's the main reason I'm so frustrated, because these synoptics are a 1 in 20 year thing.

The Cheshire Gap hole opens up once again...

 

 

[chiffer]

christ I wish that low pressure was a tad further east.

[Mucka]

Looks like a band of snow is forming over N Wales, may well affect Liverpool area

[Thunder Snow]

Very light snow flurries, think thats my lot

[NickyB]

Sadly I think Emma is just going to swing West over mid wales. Nowt this far north ?

[Linda]

Can I politely ask that those who have access to and understand the reader can expand their posts to describe the area in which the snow is falling/projected to fall or its tragejory rather than just ‘over town/near us/this area etc .it would be helpful to the wider north west community
