Radar looks as though it's about to absolutely batter Liverpool and surrounding areas. Enjoy it.

It was very heavy before instant covering but stopped and now all gone! Next band is beavier and longer so hopefully when trough passes winds veer and it gets colder so it stays longer

I used to live in allerton Liverpool..  I used to love these cold north westerlies that brought a mixture of hail sleet and snow. I remember Christmas Day 2004 ( I think) started as hail showers but then turned to snow, settled and everyone went out to enjoy it with no cars on the road!

[Chris.R]

 All of a  sudden now heavy snow. Get in.

The best one i've ever heard of for Liverpool was 17th/18th Dec 2010, us in the pennines only got 3 inches but further West on the coast got 6-12 inches from that event.

Sunshine here at the moment which is bound to lull a few people into a false sense of security before the trough moves in.
