Northwest Weather Discussion - Dec 2023 onwards

 Joe Snow

Oh for higher ground in terms of the Pennines, it should be snow, I'm not writing that off, I'm on about lower levels in the north west where the PPN looked more patchy but now the models saying it's going to be mostly rain, the shadow is much less obvious.

 Scuba steve  if he owns the Ship Inn at Kirkby tell him he runs a top top pub

[cheshire snow]

Well the GFS is still going for it

[Chris.R]

Sorry I was on the phone .

Isle of Man
Snow from 09:00

ice pellets/snow mix from 18:00

Ice pellets/rain mix from 00:00 Friday

Rain from 03:00

 

8–12 cm of snow possible  over high ground. You may struggle at low levels as surface temperatures are very marginal.
Freezing rain risk from late evening on mountains.

 cheshire snow GFS resembles a stubborn toddler - refusing to budge

[Scuba steve]

 rob_b think I’ve been in it ,near the station I think

[Mark_p]

We all need to manifest GFS. 

[Joe Snow]

 cheshire snow It’s going to be a nowcast isn’t it. Probably a middle ground for lower levels like us between the misery Hi res models & GFS snowday.

Hang on, the lone sleet symbol who refused to go home has managed to drag some of his mates back out to play.

 Scuba steve that’s the one.  Not expecting any snow here pretty much at sea level. December event here was a cracker for 24hrs 

[Chris.R]

Go with the flow and what will be will be

Aye, it sometimes gets lost especially in the model thread, but the weather that comes our way is already decided - it's already set and nothing will change it, whatever the charts may forecast.

[Had Worse]

 Chris.R it could go more than spectacularly right aswell. 

[Thunder Snow]

18z quite the downgraded ah well close but no cigar 

[Chris.R]

 Had Worse Yep

[russwirral]

FWIW local temps here are widely lower than forecast... looking on wunderground everywhere is locally 1 or 2*c having been forecasted to be around 4 or 5, with the lowet temps not expected til after 6am. One of the major issues weve had is that surfaced would be too warm. I doubt that will be the case, we may see some upgrades.

 Chris.R i miss millgate chippy what was near tom whalleys pet shop that was an awesome chippy 

[Taylorthesnowman]

Up at four for work ...hopefully might see something best of luck everyone! Goodnight! 

[RabbitEars]

 Chris.R thank you! Really will be interesting to see how close your predictions are!

Hope we all see some snow even if its in the distance on a hillside! 

[WillinGlossop]

Nighty nighty all…. whether it be white or wet or both… all at some point…  see you tomorrow
