North West Regional Discussion 30 December 2020 onwards

[SP1986]

On the Chester webcam it's showing snowing heavyish and settling 

[Rush2019]

Nothing falling yet here, good clear views east over the Buxton road too, not checked the Cat web cam yet for anything higher up.

Oh no I said I wouldn't do this to myself with a slider but now I'm radar watching. To be fair it isn't the most energetic front in the world. Another dusting would be nice though I just love to see falling snow and this winter has already provided a lot of that. 

[Day 10]

So close yet so far, a couple more nudges.

I can’t see the red dot for your location.

It’s not a classical slider, is my understanding. Either way just as frustrating for Lancashire.

Still -4c just put some recycling in bin and took an effort to open as frozen solid... black ice on patio and snow still 1-2cm with trees and grass covered and rock solid... darker cloud slowly moving up from sw... 

I've just used a kettle full of tepid water to loosen rain gauge funnel and the gate in the fence.  

Had screw top jam jar and spoon to scoop out any new unmelted snow but not needed.

So it's as we were -- cold and calm, snow lying as yesterday afternoon.    Just 2 new icicles in N window.

Min  last night minus 2.4C.   Now 1.2C

Pressure rising a tiny bit. 

Looks black to SW

Nothing falling here. My sis in Watford just said it’s started snowing there

[cheshire snow]

Met office APP 4 hours of heavy snow

approximately 10 snow flakes a minute here.

[JasonH]

Snowing nicely now and getting heavier 

[Miamay]

Net weather shows this for Liverpool. BBC weather says 4 hours 

[Chris.R]

Fairly heavy snow now quite small flakes though because it’s not marginal. Has melted the frost but beginning to stick on bins again. -0.1°C.

[Backtrack]

Light snow. Just need it to keep nudging north and we’re in business 

[severe snowstorm]

Struggling to get going here. Very light snow on and off. However, anything that does fall is settling though, so we should be in business if we can get some more intense ppn.

[Backtrack]

Just for once. Be right. 

[Mark_p]

@Chris.R The tables have turned this time then - it'll be snowing at work and I'm willing it to make the half hour journey up the road I make every day hah. 

[Shaun L]

Light snow now falling in Wallasey

[Chris.R]

Really coming down now and it’s the very fine powdery Continental type snow because it’s below freezing. Have a dusting now. -0.2°C.

[Miamay]

Still nothing here

Met office graphics still not showing the front getting north of Birmingham when it’s beginning to clip the Flyde Coast

[johnwirral]

Decent snow fall in West Kirby sticking on rooves, not sure if we. will get a covering, but We are right next to the coast.
