Nice to see some areas that missed out last week getting the snow today. Just sleety rain here, even if it turns to snow it won't make any impact.

Once again the Met Office didn't do well. The initial warning was for areas further south (north Mids, south Pennines) and then they adjusted it northwards last night.

 Turned to rain briefly and has now stopped. That’ll be it now. That’s always how this type of set up ends. Need to get some sleep now, stayed up all night for that, glad I did.

Turning sleety here I think. I hate it when it comes and goes all of the sudden.

It prefer this setup in the cold spell.

This must be something like the 10th day that snow has fallen here this winter.

Google maps look awful for most roads between the m62 and the M55.

What is interesting is that snow fell and settled in places close to the coast with upper air temperatures higher than -5c. All due to lack of sea influence and intensity of precipitation. This is why the continent easily manages to get snow events out of marginal situations.

Decent covering a few hours ago, mostly melted now though, best snow fall of the winter though, surprising considering how mild it felt yesterday

Started to snow all of a sudden in Piccadilly. Looking at the radar it won't last long.
