Radar today has been very misleading either that or the precipitation supposedly falling from the sky has fizzled before reaching the ground. In the last hour or so we should have had some sleet and snow, about an hours worth, but there has been nothing. The same thing happened this morning, waited about 2 hours before any precipitation yet radar was showing 2 hours of snow should have fallen.

There are a number of occasions when it doesn't pick up precipitation as well.

Not to be trusted!

Temps is -1 and it’s continuous snizzale   Everything looks white but it must be about 3mm deep

[jam2010]

Looks like rain well t's just drizzle

[SnowWatcher2]

ECMWF is pretty on point with the radar prediction so far according to windy, hope it continues the way its forecast...  

[Frost HoIIow]

Thinking this is going to be nothing more than cold drizzle. I'm expecting to wake up to puddles.

Well, the rain here has been replaced by what appears to be a light snow shower. Hopefully a good with of things to come this coming morning.

Temps too high on that. Could be downplaying the potential for tomorrow...

[WillinGlossop]

Snowing lightly -1c maybe gone from 1/4 of a cm to 1/2 of a cm

[Thunder Snow]

Hoping for snow in the early hours

Yes agree a proper mid winter January day, not had many of these in recent years. Had that bleak mid winter feel to it. Indeed mini-flashbacks to the first week in January 2010 feeling, but nowhere near as cold or as snowy as then. 

Temperatures rose to about 1.5 degrees so no ice day, but very cold by any standards, I class any day with max of 2 degrees or less as very cold, benchmark used to be 0 degrees, but in these warming times, 2 degrees or less is preety good going.

Yes a great winters day, best since 2018 although that's not saying much! Minimum last night -4.2c max today +0.3c, light snow started before dawn and continued till dusk, only amounted to 4cms but in the freezing air it stuck to everything creating a Christmas  Card scene. This was Plumpton Church just north of Penrith. Hope you right about tonight's snow. Andy

I’m not sure

[itsnowjoke]

All gone stirt up here

[Acupuncturist]

Met office says nothing but cloud here in South Manchester but BBC says heavy snow from 6 am right through to mid afternoon  Please just for once let the BBC be right 

[SnowWatcher2]

Accuweather still showing positivity 

[Geordiesnow]

Uppers are forecast to be slightly colder by morning but when you look at the other threads, it is a tad underwhelming.

Going to be interesting how the PPN develops and how much there will be but I think it's going to be tough for those under 100M. A degree does not seem much but it feels miles away in terms of getting snow.

[northwestsnow]

Its making painful progress and doesn't look like it will deliver much at this stage.

 

[frosty ground]

The PPN looks like it’s intensifying over the west of the region
