  1. Not so sure about how wintry next week will be.

     

    The ensembles for this area (Buxton) suggest a mean of around -6c uppers over the coming week. The hills above 200m Peak District North should be ok for sticking snow but I will be surprised to see anything lower down.

     

    My usual rule of thumb is when the wind comes from the Atlantic, uppers need to be around -8c or lower to get widespread snow

  2. interesting damian, although even in march 2013 i didn't get any lying snowfall, the southern fells created a shadow effect over an area from sellafield to about workington and we just had very light snow all day which didn't lay, i think i last got lying snow in jan 2013, i'll have a look through old threads.

     

    Buxton that is further south is far better for snow than the Lake District. People should visit the Peak District in winter if they want snow
