  1. It's really unstable here Stephen. Have had sporadic torrential downpours and could hear the thunder out towards Crosby. It all seems to be building as it crosses the Wirral towards Liverpool.
  2. Have just been watching the cells develop as they moved over the wirral. Some great Ic lightning as they moved off and some fantastic cloud formations. Will post pics later.
  3. That storm has just skirted us here and it was constant thunder, no gaps whatsoever. Must have been a hell of a storm to be under.
  4. Although temps are rising dew points are still in our favour. As reported in a previous post the temp was 1.8c but it was still snowing. Whatever we get , enjoy what we have had and it's only the 2nd week of January. Imo temps won't actually rise much above current levels now as there will be no direct sun, the increase that has occurred has been due to the increase in cloud cover. Get out and enjoy while it's still there !!!
  5. Need a little more snow now mate. It's getting a bit too icy for snowmen and snowballs. Whats the coverage like up there. May take the kids to Thurstaton tomorrow.
  6. Has anyone else noticed the area of light snow getting it's act together to the east of our region.
  7. Must add that there is something special about that glow from the snow and clouds on a cold winters night. As for the cold spell , I can't remember the last time it snowed on a Tuesday and it was still there to play in on the saturday (at sea level). Have had a great day trying to build a snowman with the kids whilst watching my dad go flying when he threw a snowball and tried to run on the ice in flip flops.
  8. It's -3c here on the coast but it is cloudy already. The next few days could prove to very interesting, especially if the front edges this far north on tues/weds.
  9. There was a light flurry at 3am this morning stephen. Just enough to dust the cars and plants
  10. It won't be marginal , the dp's are too low. IF the band of ppn makes it this far west it will be snow.
  11. On the coast -1c , 9cm of snow On a serious note, any slush that was on the roads has frozen solid already and it is causing very dangerous roads. I've just opted for leaving the car parked where it is and snow balling with the kids instead.
  12. Surprised they managed to play last night. The pitch was harder than rock come the end.
  13. Current temp 0.8c and dp -2c. Not too bad with the wind direct off the Irish hot water bath(sorry sea !!)
  14. Well temps hovering just above 0c here. Earlier snow shower followed by a rain shower that have now left frozen footpaths even with cloud cover. Looks like we may get a little snow tomorrow after initial rain.
  15. I would be checking that weather station if you only got to 0.3. On the met office observations site even Crosby got to -4.5c and we were still below freezing on the wirral recently. Edit - We have just reached 0c.
  16. We have our first proper flakes on the coast now. Shame it's too sleety
  17. Lovely icy cold RAIN here with a biting breeze and 2.9c. :unsure: You just have to admire the current models though and for all the whinging and whining being done - In the last few years many would have jumped at the chance of having rain that MAY turn to snow or the prospects of ten days of bitter weather. That alone is worth raising a glass to.
  18. Rain here at the mo but it wouldn't take much to turn to sleet/snow. Driving before and there were splatters of ice in the rain going all over the windscreen.
  19. This evenings plans are now:- 1.Beer 2.Lights off - lamppost in view 3.Footy on the box 4.Occassional radar viewing I love being off work !!
  20. You just beat me to it. The PPN will have to be a lot heavier to cool things down enough for snow here.
  21. I detect a damp squib coming up. Temp now 1c , DP 1c and the frost is disappearing quickly.
  22. BBC forecast at 1730 has the NW under snow from teatime tomorrow. Today's max on the coast was 1.1c and it's currently below freezing already. As long as dew points are ok i'm sure it will be snow if the ppn does make it this far north.
