The storm approaching. Unfortunately rain and hail hitting window makes it blurry at times.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tUhZBi6xeQ
Cool-we just missed out on that in Eccles.

I like a temperature between 15c and 20c as this allows me to control my own warmth better by sticking bits of me out from the covers or not as the case may be.Generally though I have to put up with way above this in hot spells [which thankfully are like hens teeth these last 10 years]and way below this in cold spells [which are way more common]. It is not unusual for my bedroom to be 10c or below in the coldest parts of winter as I have no central heating.

what a strange comment,i get the joke.At Leyland station blizzard but nowt sticking. This is like non - alcoholic lager... pointless. What a waste of a potentially historic event.

Anyone expect any snow later on as the front moves back north?I have not being paying much attention to weather of late but saw an itv local forecast and it said there will be somera/ sleet and snow as the front moves back north after it has first passed us.

I was wondering what it was like up in Oldham given how bad it was at my low location -I'm moving to somewhere in Oldham so it crossed my mind.Returned back to Oldham. Noticely a little more settlig here, nothing major but one side of the road as a little covering of fine white snow, and the other side exposed to the wind has mini drifts up to kerbside. Shows you the strength of wind. Very bitter feeling.

Saw for the first time where Iive a proper meteorological blizzard.I am at 40 metres a.s.l. to 60 metres in eccles the partial floodplane and home of those awfull cakes.Dry powdery snow with a near gale force wind for about 20 minutes happened ;I had to take cover as that weather was fricken BAD, BAD.I with my several layers and overcoat was not dressed for it never mind the IDIOT who I saw in shorts and T .shirt duck into a building for cover.Today I will always remember because I have wanted to see a 'none daliymail/express',ie ,actual ,blizzard at my low location.Thanks for indulging my passionate splurge and bad grammer.

I have had a very memorable day in terms of the weather .At my location I had never seen a full,blown ,blizzard;not a daily mail/express whatever blizzard- a proper meteorolgical blizzard.For 20 mins the wind blew a gale almost what seemed gale force with dry ,heavy ,powdery snow ; as the snow swirled and drifted I noticed some IDIOT in shorts and t-shirt and probably shock also take shelter inside some building .I hastily did the same in the library with a few others.Man ,I waited for this day;at 43m a.s.l. to 60m a.s.l. I didn't expect to see these conditions;on Saddleworth moor maybe but not the floodplane that is eccles .I have gone on long enough but I am so glad to have witnessed the peculiarity of todays great weather,one minute spring the next a blizzard.Thanks for indulging my passionate splurge and bad grammer.

Any thoughts on what tomorrows convective showers will bring,if anything ,to our region.
-
Paggering?Like the word;I would say hammeringreally paggering now but probably too little too late for a decent fall.

Thank you for your responses though I am still a little in the dark,ha...I did look online for a definative answer and didn't so asked the community here.Again thanks .

Does this big diurnal/nocturnal difference in temperature happen partly because of the relatively long times of both night and day .At the moment I think it's 11.18 minutes of our turn of sun light in london and 12.42 minutes of no sun.Why does the temperature drop quicker this time of year here.For example in december when the nights are way longer than the days there could be a day when there is aa 2 celcius maximum and the subsequent snowless,calm ,clear conditions of the night time end up aiding the minimum to -3 or -4c,a drop 5 or 6c.Yet now were getting form 14 to sub zero. Please indulge my ignorance and hopefully I and others can find out,thanks.

There is no bad weather ,just the wrong clothes

All that souned too familiar.ha,lolSame here.
Im now at the time of year where I want either a cold spell with snow and if that isn't the case then would prefer mild. Checked my meter readings yesterday and I was mortified. I think for the next few months im going on a forced diet which consists of starvation!
Clearly see the backtrack on the GFS if one looks towards the W of Spain and the trough digging further S.

I was in oldham that day and there was a lot of snow about,[town centre was 3 odd inches ,double the odd drift to 6. Some nice guy after asked ,what's that small of a hill withe snow on called,replied 'ooh you not going up there are you,[in an oldham accent i was fond of,so much bettter than my odd,studenty salfordian accent] ,'no I replied ,but what is it called?Sounds interesting - the last breakdown offered 6hr of continous snowfall here and 8-10 inches - it never turned back to rain and if it hadn't been for a rapid rise in temperatures and overnight rain the following day it would have given many days of enjoyable snowcover. That said it did allow the Oldham v Liverpool game to go ahead in the FA Cup and we all know what happened there
'Saddleworth Moor,he tells.'I genuinely smile ,my stupidly chosen cloth shoes felt a little less bothesome as I sloshed away thimking of the wonders of Oldham.I thik th city is lovely as are the surrounding areas.Plus way better winter weather [well snow] and be able to travel higher for more snow. as don't drive moter vehicles.
