Snowing again here.
Snowing here too now

Sun's out and a rapid melt of overnight snow is taking place.
If this was Dec or Jan we would have been buried.
Forecasters got it spot on IMO.
Hats off to them.

Had a whole hour whiteout Backtrack about 3.15 - 4.15
Took half an hour of really intense, heavy snow, to start settling again after thaw

Decided to get a take away and a nice bottle of red, I didn't get my hopes up being where I am but reflecting on 2010 and can't believe it was 13 years ago since I seen a proper snowfall.
Only the northwest could get 2 days of snow and have nothing to show for it, looks like you guys with altitude are doing well, I may go stand on a chair out side
Been almost 6 years since I left Manchester, saw a few decent falls since the epic 2010 one, mainly whilst at work just south of Stockport.
Moving to Llandudno, got told it never shows here, indeed my daughters school mates had never seen local snow apparently. Until it snowed Dec 2017, 6 months after we moved. Had a few decent falls since. 2 this year. Got a bit of altitude above the town and that makes a massive difference.
But Manchester? 1996, 2009, 2010.
And hundreds of minor/non events!

Isle of Man has been "red" all day.
Must be some impressive scenes there?

It was really heavy snow in Abergele this morning.
Worst I saw though was between Holywell and Mold.

Turned back to moderate snow now here. Although whether it will settle again on the sodden surfaces is doubtful.

The milder air has reached further north than expected. I had a really good start to the day with drifts in the lane. It turned to rain and it’s all gone. I’m at 1000’ASL. Even Snowdon and the surrounding west facing mountains have been washed by rain yet there’s snow on the great orme, madness
Been hammering down with rain for the last half hour. About to head back up, bet its washed away on the Orme too.

Looks like it's gonna stop soon here. If the next area hits us it will likely be rain I think until the wind veers

That 16z 0c line can't be right. Must be further south

Could you stick some of that stuff in the freezer for me, please? Will be on the Orme next week.

Rapid thaw on in North Wales if its any consolation. Just walked up to the Great Orme summit, good covering and a good few inches in places. For now!

Had to abandon commute to Wrexham earlier. Visibility appalling around Mold/ Holywell. Heavy lying snow. Home now to a covering.

I visited Llandudno many times and I've always wondered if there has ever been lying snow where that row of houses are on the road going up to the Orme and nothing right on the promenade
Been here nearly 6 years now, formerly Chorlton that's why I still look in on the North West thread.
Its happened a few times this year. Most years there can be at least some snow cover on the Orme but not in town.

That's amazing because if you look at the Llandudno livestream at the pier area, no lying snow
Ive got 150m elevation on Great Orme

North Wales getting hammered, just had to turn back home on commute, lost control of car but luckily avoided hitting anything.
Worst area between Holywell and Mold. Chucking it down back home here in Llandudno

Up early in the morning, I'm interested to see where the front will be. Still can't see it as of 11 pm on the radar unless it's that sliver of precip appearing southwest of Ireland.
You are looking in the wrong direction Mark. I was too.
Check Sat24
Its out due west or WNW

Yeah but unmodelable, a small but intense feature that crops up hours before impact.
Is my take. John Holmes is the expert.
