Very windy and wet throughout the night here and can still hear the rain belting against the windows.
Driving down the M66 this morning was an adventure! Loads of deep lying water!

Driven to Skipton today for lunch and Christmas shopping. Snow on the way there and snow on way back between Burnley and Bacup at Deerplay moor and to top it all thunder at home and a heavy hail shower while dog walking just now. It’s very cold out there!!

What a vile day although there’s hopefully signs of a bit of a clearance reaching here shortly.
hope so as I need to nip to the supermarket and I don’t even fancy the trip to and from the car in this weather.
If it’s Morrisons take your wellies as the car park will be under water!!

Smart, guess who is having to unexpectedly work in the morning
Oh no that’s not good. I hope for you it doesn’t drift to much up your end. I’m very sheltered from a northerly it’s the east wind that causes me a problem!

It was definitely Brrrrrrrrrr out on my walk this morning, certainly on the tops with a lazy wind blowing snow off the fields but lovely all the same.
plenty of snow drifting in the lane I often walk along with large areas of ice and it made a difference to how many people I came across, namely none.
I’ve just been up on Maden Rec and it was so cold I got real pain in my face !!

A covering from overnight showers and now we are under a streamer which is producing plenty of small dry flakes. The wind is also picking up the snow off the roofs and blowing it around.

Just returned from braving the icy wastes with the hounds. Everything is frozen solid. Black ice on every solid surface and snizzle blowing in the wind. Any plans for a walk with one nominated friend knocked on the head as sure I’ll return with a broken bone!!

At least they’re in their own regional rather than hogging the Model Thread.
TBH wherever it showed on the BBC news had heavy snow falling and a decent amount on the ground but everyone expects/demands the maximum from these set ups so there will no doubt be some toy throwing going on for those on the fringes.
At least they have a chance in the snow raffle though, imagine living in the Northwest and looking enviously at other parts of the country while knowing that your chances of anything more than a flake or two are almost zero.....oh wait
Looking at the radar those showers are piling in off the North Sea. Let’s hope they make it here
