Just this moment changed from rain to sleet.

Sorry to bring up next week folks, but am I sensing Toys flying in the Mod thread lol

[More Runs Needed]

Half melted Ice pellets here, will evaporative cooling help, I'll wait and see

[Dark Horse]

Definitely sleety here in Audenshaw like ice pellets. Temp 1.7c. On this occasion though I think I'm going to be too low down at 97m to get any proper snow tonight. Places like Mossley & Saddleworth should get a good cover though. 

[SnowWatcher2]

 hope that's right  

[Spah1]

The suspense!! 
 

[SnowWatcher2]

Heavy sleet now.

[WillinGlossop]

Heavy sideways snow

[Stratocumulus perlucidus]

I must move to Derbyshire 

[hailseizertoo]

Snowing Liverpool. 50p flakes. Changed from rain, to sleet then snow in 30 mins.

[I Cumbria Marra I]

Extremely light sleet falling here i think, met office have us dry until 8am, major rain or should i say snow? shadow risk here like march 2013

[toggerob]

The snow is just starting to stick on the gardens outside here at 210m but the visibility is fairly low so it won't be until sunrise before I can see where the snowline actually is, although i'm hoping by 3am everywhere will be covered once the evaporative cooling brings the colder layer further down.

ice pellets here. Just needed 2 / 3 degrees colder and it would have been epic.

Snowing in blackpool

[SnowWatcher2]

Just turned to heavy snow here.

Wow its snowing in Blackpool and Liverpool yet there's hardly a trace of sleet here, just rain and pellets

[Snowmad79]

According to the radar I am now slap bang under the red echos yet it's barely even any drizzle. Just a spot.

Evaporative cooling is the story.

You may be too far west but id give it half hour mate to let the intensity bring your temperature and snow line down

Is it sleety wet snow? It looks like it going by the camera.

Ice pellets here which I thought means that game over more or less but given the reports from Liverpool and Blackpool then there is some hope. 

[Snowmad79]

So far is looking like 10 inches of Nothing.

[Wardlegacy]

Heavy snow
