Still snowing moderately here a nice covering of around 2cm, temp now 0.8c.
-
And right on cue as I write it off, it's snowing heavily and accumulating.
-
Stop your whinging you've had your fill this winter.Yep one big giant let down.
-
Yep another couple of hours and most of us will be dry by the looks of things.I agree, although Metoffice said it would intensify this evening and overnight.
-
It's been a while since I've seen spindrift, your in a fantastic location for snow whichever direction it comes from.Can't tell whether its actually snowing as there is so much drifting. Snow blowing off the fields in sheets, running across in a line and spinning like a tornado. So strong in the gusts that it nearly blew me over, and anything not tied down is taking off.
-
Apart from the precipitation issue another thing that hasn't been in our favour are the temp and dewpoints. Even now the temp is fluctuating between 1.4c to 1.8c and is only forecasted to drop to 1c overnight.

He is from Crewe!if that statment were true you would be an odd un

Tempers fraying on the Net Weather NW snowless thread, gimps and spoons please calm down.

I was hoping for my only decent snow cover of the year out of this, I should have known better though as if it's not from the NW we rarely ever see anything.Jeez, some of you are up and down like a yo-yo. Chill people, its only the weather, this is the end of March and anything snow-wise has to be a bonus really, regardless of forecasts/model outputs. Don't get me wrong, I do understand why people are disappointed following the warnings, etc. but we do need to remember that:
a) A forecast is just that
b ) Warnings are covering the worst case scenario, which almost certainly won't happen for the majority.
Look at the Met Office's matrix for this event - look where the "tick" is. It's a high impact event, but low probability.

The main problem IMO is that people don't treat the warning's properly or how they are designed for. It's not necessarily the people's fault, I do think the warnings could be made a lot clearer, but that's another topic altogether.
Anyway, rant over, and its snowing here!

We need a sense of humour with the crap climate we endure twelve months of the year.I barely post in here but yep I was humourously exaggerating
-
Looking like the second band is now upon us, temp has now dropped to 1.5c but still any snow is struggling to accumulate.
-
My jackboot sense of humour isn't always appreciated.im sure your just winding me up now "yellow warning" from the met office.
Play the game fella
-
Whats a warning??
-
I'm not from Manchester but this winter it's been like living in one's own micro climate. Still tis only weather and cricket season will soon be upon us.The Manchester shadow has really done us today. If Ian is right that looks about it for us.
-
Snow intensity increased again, blah, blah, blah, still not sticking.
-
Agree CC, roll on some spring warmth and sunshine please.Having seen this damp squib I'm pretty close to throwing in the towel and saying roll on spring
-
Deaths everywhere GB. It's being so cheerful that keeps me going.well,at least we are not imminently threatened by death eh ;that we know of anyway.
-
Drifting frost!yeas,I have to aree but hey,we shall seee what later brings.
-
We were hoodwinked again I'm afraid.So poor, so poor.
-
The MetO have me down for light snizzle from 18:00 - 21:00, thereafter dry for the next five days.
-
Stopped again here, still no accumulations. It's looking more and more likely this is going to effect the areas that where in the amber zone only, as per my forecast earlier. Much ado about nothing for the rest of us I'm afraid.
-
Snowing fairly heavily now although not accumulating, again. Temp has dropped to 2.1c.
-
Indeed, a little overhyped for the majority of the country really, although those in NE Wales look like getting in excess of 30cm.Very light snow, can’t see where 20 – 40cms is going to come from, the 2nd band will really have to shovel it down, about 3 - 4cm today but it’s been thawing very quickly despite temps hovering under 1C.
So far a moderate snow event unusual in March, it’s not however, at least so far, a memorable snow event, but then again I personally haven't seen one of those since 87.
-
Ok I'll put my more sensible head on so here goes. The second band of snow should reach East Lancs around 5pm, it will be mainly light in nature and will die out towards midnight.not helping.. does anybody else know i havent got acess to radar
