 cheshire snow Then again

[iand61]

 Iceaxecrampon  Scuba Steve should be ok up in Arnside at 9000m but maybe just a wet mix for the rest of us

[iand61]

from the latest Met update

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

Cloudy and windy on Tuesday with heavy rain arriving later. Colder and brighter on Wednesday, then rain and snow on Thursday, possibly heavy and disruptive in places. Windy at times.

 

Not sure whether it’s possibly disruptive as either snow or rain but I’ll take the possibility 

better get the potential snow shovel out just in case

Not heard that kind of forecast for a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnng time.

[iand61]

 Day 10 Met probably put it up for the northwest by mistake.

should have been the southeast forecast instead

Exactly, it's either above the top line or below the bottom one.

Can anyone remember the last time we had region wide snowfall and during daylight hours too as they also seem to be getting rarer? March 2013 maybe??

Couldn't, could it???

Buried according to ecm 12z

sweet spot right over my head and less than 5 days out out.

what could possibly go wrong

[WillinGlossop]

 iand61 indeed possibly everything or it could upgrade? At least there’s precipitation about to make things possibly interesting ️️️

 iand61  Bonkers lottery. Chase narrowing down to nowcasting as ever 9k M is Everest zone proportions! Even for Morecambe Bay. 

[cheshireoak]

Oh Joy and there's me driving to London and back wed-thurs. Normally would be very excited!!!

[iand61]

 WillinGlossop the usual suspects in the Mad thread are already doing snow dances to drag it all south and given past experience,  I think they’ll end up with it.

[cheshire snow]

Just a step back from the ECM snow charts and to be totally realistic these charts are not screaming disruptive snow to me further north and higher up maybe but a bit underwhelming to be honest.

[Day 10]

Another 30-40 hours to go before things firming up.

 

[The Northern Ramper]

Just the foot of snow then

[Spah1]

I don’t think it will be cold enough for most. We’ll see. At least there’s something to look at. 

[itsnowjoke]

Should of had warnings out for tonight very gusty worse than the last named storm noise wise

[WillinGlossop]

 itsnowjoke surprised how windy today has been… some really big rolling gusts… 

[Had Worse]

I've been painting most of the day and hardly noticed the wind.

I had a quick glance at this thread and kept seeing dark purple over the Peak District. 

What's that all about,  it usually corrects South  

[Scuba steve]

 Iceaxecrampon and remember Arnside  knott is is a lofty 9159 meters and can be seen from Norway on a clear day

[iand61]

 Had Worse give it time, it’s coming.
