To be honest I think the really interesting time could be Thursday morning rush hour, chaos possible, there could be disruption to travel with the precipitation rates.
I agree, but I think we will see the heavy snow showers moving in by 10pm tonight.
-
Should be really interesting this time tomorrow night!! Fingers crossed!
-
With the NW/N flow I can't see many showers making it over the Pennines throughout Wednesday evening & in to the early hours of Thursday.

I think in this set up for late Wednesday afternoon & overnight in to Thursday will bring a lot of heavy snow showers to a lot of the region perhaps merging together to give longer heavier periods of snow throughout the night just like December 2010 on the night of the 17/18th. But that's just my opinion.
EDIT: The amber warning for heavy snow that night was only issued at 5pm Friday evening only 3 hours before the snow event began. Just worth keeping in mind.

People on twitter at accu taking pee outta us uk snow snow freaks! â„ï¸â„ï¸â„ï¸
Those pesky Yanks! lol

This has just been posted in the MOD thread, can't get more of an IMBY post than that! Laughable!
"If we could just get a more north east feed rather than a n/nw shown in the models everyone would be in for the fun!"

It was always going to be to warm here for me, I hope the rest of the northwest fairs well though!
You're in the warning area?

Hope mod's will allow me this one...
Fergie just tweeted..
How long will cold conditions stay once here? Latest UKMO diagnostics hint at less cold, more W'ly-influenced weather by end of next week. This change - as is often the case - may prove rather 'messy' (perhaps yielding a risk of further snow in *some* parts of UK)...
Cont'd...but until then, we have high confidence on cold weather frm Weds PM thro rest of this week; & also possible for a few days nxt week
Simple answer they just aren't sure. Still a good week of cold & potentially snowy weather for many for sure.

Oh dear I've completely set off the North West forum for suggesting it to be wintry rather than snowy, with a risk of rain towards the coast, as per the met office warning.
Seems some can't have a reasonable discussion without resorting to digs.
And its funny how the thread that continually worships the computer generated BBC/Meto five day forecasts are now completely disregarded for showing rain.
Its nice on this thread we have reasoned discussions on why we think certain conditions will occur without silly digs just because we aren't all singing from the same tune.
Stay in here pal & you'll be fine. Cheers.

Thank you for a reasoned response
I've looked at various parameters and am struggling to see snow away from mostly high ground inland.
The short window of opportunity I was talking about earlier still exists when the NW taps into a pool of -8 uppers (Wed Night).

Above the wbfl is at about 100m all well and good for low lying areas. Freezing levels around 200m so while I expect falling snow it will need to be pretty heavy/continuous for low lying accumulations.
Throughout the night higher uppers creep in.
The next night sees uppers of -5 which aren't good enough I'm afraid.

Freezing level for cheshire is 600m on that.
Could you please stick to your regional thread and leave us in the North West to discuss in ours? Thank you in advance.

Good to see things edging ever closer and not downgrading
Nice mild sector there for the South East! lol
-
The set up from Wednesday (according to the Meto) of cold N/NW winds tend to deliver some good events for low lying parts of NW England
Indeed, the North West is certain;y the "sweet spot" for Wednesday night/Thursday.

Why is it when they issue warnings in any other part of the Country they are on the money, when we have warnings issued they go tits up?

Fingers crossed!!! Patience is the key!!
Keep the faith.

I really think people are jumping the gun here & being quite frankly hysterical, precip is pivoting & will affect the region over night, I expect quite a wide area to have a covering by morning.
-
Precipitation pivoting and due to head back south after midnight.
-
Still snowing lightly here.
-
Nothing here. Am gutted
It will come & go throughout the night.

I doubt it. It works the other way when you have an E/NE flow, they die as they try to cross over the Pennines. Seen it so many times.
