The BBC has 'graupel' showers crossing west to east over the pennines tomorrow afternoon before clearing skies following on. I don't think there will be any serious snow showers. Does look some rural areas in the north west could record minus double digits later on the week. Presently exactly 0c on my desktop gadget.
bbc says light snow for me in morning

very cloudy here now. was blue sky earlier.

GFS 144 shows just how a wee bit more amplification and a favourable tilt to atlantic troughing can be extremely conducive for a battleground next weekend.
According to PPN chart we were meant to have snow all afternoon. Ziltch in reality.
That date in that chart is still an eternity away in my view with regards to snow forecasts.

Word from my cousin who's just came to my house - sleet near Stockport.

Chance of any snowfall for us in the NW depends on SST temps, strength of that flow and wind direction, aswell as other combinational fators of heights/moisture content/dew points/etc. But going from the past 2 year trend in similar setups we (in the Pennines at least) had some of the heaviest snowfall to date with severe frosts ontop of that, I think it was Woodford 2 years ago that was the coldest place in England at least getting down to -17.6'c. As for shower activity itself a good stable occluded front/trough like the one coming in tomorrow should do us just fine.
Thank you, and yes I remember that morning very well as I work near Stockport, and was very, very cold not to mention waiting for the 199 bus to get there, lol.
-
The showers currently running into the northeast are reliant on SSTs to keep them aloft, could be due to the shallowness in heights thanks to the near proximity of that high pressure build-up. But MetO Surface obs shows a nicely sustained occluded front running down the entire length of the country starting this time tomorrow.
Do you think our chances for snowfall in the next couple of days is above 50%?
-
NW forecast has changed for me. Increased chance of snow from this afternoon?
-
Just a quick note.
There was quite a few events from last month in which the unexpected things happened, and the unexpected can happen again.

Think I will have a walk up to Cracken Edge tomorrow morning if there's snow there and take my DSLR. Discovered that place last week when we had the frost. Lovely place.

i went out today in Derbyshire and above was a very unusual cloud formation. It was very circular line, and apeared to have multiple layers. I thought it could be from a airplane, but it was there for hours and again appeard to have multiple layers to it in terms of height and expanding out. Never seen anything like it before.

Was it a battle ground that generally leaves us with good accumulations?
