North West Regional Discussion 30 December 2020 onwards

[SnowWatcher2]

Just started snowing now

[Frost HoIIow]

Came down a bit heavier about 10 mins ago. Probably a couple of cm out there now. Doesn't look like there's much to follow this band and they are weakening..... unless those ones to the west of Cumbria can make their way down and stay intact.

Yea, counting on these..  if not hoping for something tomorrow before the rain moves in.

The remnant of one shower has just managed to reach here but as it’s -4°C every flake is sticking.

[Wardlegacy]

Definitely dying as they hit the hills but every flake sticks!

[Spah1]

Wow. Couldn’t be bothered staying up but that shower hit perfect. Just looked out of the window and a new 3cm has been put down.

[cheshire snow]

Snow showers now into the south of the region

Good overnight covering. Must’ve been some active band that maybe 3am? 

[Weather-history]

-5.7C  and was shocked to see it snowed during the early hours with a covering

[Rush2019]

beautiful fresh, pristine layer of snow this morning.  The air is quite bitter, stings your cheeks, makes your nose run.

[Had Worse]

A nice covering of snow on a Monday morning

[Snowman1973]

It’s snowing thanks to this little blob over us

[severe snowstorm]

A thin dusting of snow here from overnight showers.

[Chris.R]

A dusting of graupel and ice pellets here stuck on all surfaces.

Minimum overnight was -3.4°C reached around midnight when as predicted temp started to rise hovering around zero until now. Currently 0.2°C.

[Wardlegacy]

Surprisingly thick fresh coverage overnight. More  then I expected. Met office app shows heavy snow for 7am! There’s nothing within 100 miles on the radar.

[Winter Hill]

Woke up to surprise snowfall. 
Misty too. 
 

[SP1986]

Had some graupel type stuff this morning. However the temperature is rising far more than I thought it would. Temperature is now 2C with dewpoint above 0C so melting fast.

Down the road it's almost 4C .. just shows what a westerly wind can do to a cold night

[WillinGlossop]

-5.6c low... currently-3c with fresh coating of snow/Graupel 

[Chris.R]

-0.1°C here, 2.1°C in Crosby...
and that perfectly illustrates why I moved inland lol

[Weather-history]

-6.1C

... and that’s why I still need to move further inland lol

[Joe Bloggs]

Woke up to this! Wow! Looks like a couple of cm if you look under the car.

By the looks of the posts on here. The Oldham east area is doing poor compared to all the other areas dotted around here. Usually the other way round

The snow we've had melts quick. Kind of reminds me of past winters as a child in the 80's when snow fell often but quickly melted, on /off through winter until we finally got pummelled with up to 8ft drifting later in the winter.

 

Just to add, we only have a slight dusting of Graupel here this morning.

[Day 10]

Another dusting of water for the snow capital of the UK!

DP 54 TEMP 206.

[Slidergate '17]

Nice dusting here in Sale, nice to look at, most likely melted by 12 tho.
