Northwest Weather Discussion - Dec 2023 onwards

[Day 10]

Just not quite the right side, keeps alternating between a little burst of fat flakes then back to horrible sleety rain. It's a bust, next!

[James M]

A little bit of progress….

[WillinGlossop]

Heavy snow blizzard like at times but laying 1-2cm but being blown sideways… 0c dew -1c 

if the reds on the radar returns make it here it’ll be great

I reckon you will be pasted for a good few hours looking at whats approaching mate, happy days enjoy.

 Day 10 it’s literally hardly even raining here, what a bust

[Dan B]

My folks are in Clitheroe and they've said its heavy snow there, on & off...

 

It's trying again here too; snows, then sleets, then back to rain... And then snow again...

 

Just not cold enough!

 

Looking forward to being in the Highlands next week; better chance of it there TBH

 pip22 Rubbish. I thought we’d see at least falling snow. 

[WillinGlossop]

That wind is really blowing out there… 

[pip22]

It's always the warm sector to ruin things!!

Snow much heavier now, threatening to stick.

[wrightc23]

Snow! For about 2 minutes it's gone back to rain now.

[Taylorthesnowman]

Snowing heavy here now

[The Northern Ramper]

It’s sticking!!

[James M]

Off our for a walk while I can!

[Stratocumulus perlucidus]

It’s snowing prawn crackers!

[Had Worse]

Things now turning white quite rapidly. 

That's not the emulsion on the wall BTW. 

[Chris.R]

Trying its best again here but not quite making it yet

[C11ady]

6" in Buxton already.

[frosty ground]

The heavy stuff breaks up just before it gets here, can happen maybe a slight southerly component to the wind.

a good dusting thou so far maybe 1 cm in the grass a little heavier now as I type and the wind is really gusting 

[Jackski4]

It’s snowing here now, way too wet to settle and there’s not too much left on radar expect it to turn back to rain 

[damianslaw]

Not much happening here so far, a few moderate outbreaks of sleety snow, but mostly light sleet. I can see a light cover on ground above about 200m.. we need it to be heavy to produce a cover here, might see a temporary one this afternoon, but suspect will be a brief affair. Temp stuck on 2.5 degrees. A raw bleak winter day.

[Miamay]

Snow here but much too wet to stick
