North west regional discussion

Whiteout conditions!

Met office just updated the warning for Friday to reflect the uncertainty about the less cold air coming in looks better

Snow shower passed through here. Visibility really dropped and snow blowing in gusts.

A poky shower popped up just west of Manchester. Passed through here with heavy fine snow blowing in the wind and a marked drop in visibility. Cumulus clouds now have more oomph to them.

If we miss out on Friday/Saturday, that would be the final nail in the coffin for me, missed out on so many similar events i.e. lows coming up against cold air and stalling just to the south

....Time yet - worth watching and not giving up too soon.

Just had a heavy shower too. Bitter out and clouds rolling in. Pleasantly surprised so this bodes well for tomorrow and Friday we’ll have to see how far north it gets. My guess Stafford 

[severe snowstorm]

Heavy snow which has now re-covered paths and roads. 

[northwestsnow]

Good news is this has put the brakes on melting and another 3 hours or so before sun starts setting..

[tedmus]

Heavy snow now in Lostock Gralam.

All is not lost - yes a belter for the Midlands but Saturday AM.....

 

[severe snowstorm]

Shower eased off and almost instantly cover has melted from road. We badly need sunset to arrive. Can the showers keep going overnight?

[Had Worse]

Current shower.
