Next streamer set to last just over an hour over Shaw and Crompton according to Accuweather ...  

If that doesn’t mean the same for me I’m jumping on the tram.

[Winter Hill]

Wow massive flakes 

[More Runs Needed]

Alternating between graupel and snow here

[griff74]

Coming down even heavier than earlier here now! 

[Oakwell]

Pleasant surprise more snow

[alr1970]

Seconds out, round two.

[SnowWatcher2]

Just started again - light at moment.

[jam2010]

Struggling to stick after the snow melt earlier just slushy on roads and pavements, heavier burst to the south of here

[griff74]

Really coming down here and feels like it’s getting colder! 

[SnowWatcher2]

Visibility just dropped - Heavy snow incoming.

It’s just not cold enough. We had 2/3cm of snow, it’s melting super fast. Currently snowing heavily. Alternating between grapple and large flakes. 
 

Too mild. Wind has really got up, so there’s a lot of Irish Sea modification now. It’s 3C at the airport.

Had a fair few light-moderate snow showers rattle through this morning but you can tell things have got more marginal the last hour or so as the snow has been sleety hasn’t been sticking and the 1-2cm we had overnight is melting.

I'm walking a local circular to Thurstaston today and it's raining here lol. Nice day though

[Joe Bloggs]

Just drove to Salford via Manchester City centre (essential) and the snow in Manchester was very impressive about 15 mins ago.

Seems like shower activity is dying off, is there another trough due after 1pm?

NW Airflow streams are at correct approach - depends on temps.

[jam2010]

Was expecting more from round 2, just to north an east, would of been better at night.

We just have slush part from a light cover on cars an grass, mainly melting on impact. 

 

[Backtrack]

Trough running through later. That’s it for now re showers

Similar here tbh. Like you say most of the heavier stuff has gone to the south and west.

[itsnowjoke]

Drip drip most of its melted

Same here, early morning snow melting, just had very heavy snow, just wet the ground

[frosty ground]

Looks like I’m on the northern edge of the action 0.5 cm of snow which isn’t melting but not rapidly accumulating either 

[Iceaxecrampon]

Moderate here now arrived at Balderstone - interesting drive.

[raul_sbd]

Probably about 1-2cm here in Sale, anything else expected for later on or tomorrow @Chris.R?

[Mark_p]

Sun's out now farewell snow heh. I wonder what maximum temp we can reach in this airstream. Beeb says 2 but I feel like it'll get a bit higher unless it clouds over.
