North west regional discussion

[Carl46Wrexham]

Interesting twitter conversation between Derek Brockway, Chris Fawkes and Ian Fergusson regarding the end of the week's weather. Talk of blizzard, extremely serious, alarming....

This event if it comes off could rival the snowstorms of  New Years Eve 1978, and January 1982

[Thunder Snow]

So are we still on for snow from around fri morning right through to sat

Interesting reading the Met Office update now saying a north south split after the weekend. Goodness knows what counts as north and south though

We were always going to have to be more patient here though, wait til the weekend then if it's valid re-post it. Easterlies can and do deliver.

Correct. Ive seen Easterlies back in the 70's and 80's deliver to the region and deliver good. People need not to take the Meto updates as gospel 

[Wardlegacy]

I am hoping they have the track of this ‘polar low’ too far south and it might creep north and hit us . Rather have that than a low pressure sweeping up bringing a thaw

[Carl46Wrexham]

First warning issued for Thursday...current SW England and South Wales. Heavy snow and gales. Small chance of snow turning to freezing rain.

Let's hope that keeps tracking slowly north and hits us on Friday, I would quite happily take a dry week if we are hit by a blizzard on Friday.

Going to be awful seeing 2 ft of snow in Cornwall on the news whilst we have nothing here.

[Spah1]

I want fridays low to push north and hit us even if it turns milder afterwards

90% sure it wont, they never do.

[Wardlegacy]

Lot of the region just been removed from Wednesday’s snow warning now. Seems a bit premature of the Met Office in such  instability myself. Normally they over warn!
