  1. Actually saw snow fall imby just after 8pm this evening, its only the second time this winter I've personally witnessed it fall, the last time was 14th December, any other time I've managed to glimpse a dusting on the hills before it melts. Its been sleeting, hailing, and raining on and off since. Temp currently 1.5°. Got my bedroom curtains open so l can lamp post watch from my bed.
  2. Just had a very brief bit of hailstone, if l hadn't been net curtain twitching at the time I would have missed it.
  3. Gusty heavy rain at the moment, I think Macc is a little too far south, however I may see some snow on the hills. Not going to be a pleasant walk to work in a minute. Pleased for those who get to see a decent snow fall.
  4. Morning Ireland. Glad some of you are seeing some snow. Just gusty heavy rain for me here at the moment, not going to be pleasant walk to.work in a minute. Enjoy the snow.
  5. Just driving home from mums when the hail shower came, oof it spooked me. Didn't notice any lightning.
  6. Just had a couple.of decent gusts, heard noise outside, ornamental owl blown off the fence and Christmas tree in its metal pot blown over, the lights just flickered too.
  7. All very quiet on the Ireland thread too.
  8. Just had a look at METAR TAF, Manchester, the highest forecast gusts for today is 55mph at 6pm, as it currently stands,I agree not as gusty as Ciara. Just rain, rain and more rain.
  9. On the edge of the squall now, gone dark, house lights flickering, view of the hills invisible. Aircraft still flying over, hats off to all the pilots. (Pardon the pun).
  10. Morning Ireland, hope you all kept safe. Winds quite gusty here at the moment, squall on its way too. Hope most of you get to see some snow over the next few days.
  11. Hoping to set off for Llandudno later this afternoon, may leave it until tea time, radar watching for now, nasty up the Orme.
  12. Supposed to be going to Llandudno today, daughter and I going later this pm, but that's not before we've assessed conditions at the time of travelling, may leave it till nearer tea time.
  13. Got the wind picking up here in Cheshire, NW England, but nothing out of the ordinary yet, noticed that the rain for you has become more of an issue. Apart from a couple of showers earlier there has been no significant rainfall here yet. Will continue to track your thread.
  14. Been able to hear the wind for the last 10 mins or so. Just dipped into the Ireland thread, it seems the rain has become more of a concern than the wind at the moment.
  15. Yep, got the wind-up torch at the ready, in case l need the bathroom in the night, power outages can't be ruled out.
  16. Where you get off it, is anyones guess. LOL
  17. Your post reminded me of a Peter cook, Rowan Atkinson sketch about the end of the world, where the burning question was ' Will the wind be so mighty as to lay low the mountains of the earth?' Hilariously funny sketch. I've a trip planned to N Wales tomorrow, but it all hinges on what the conditions are like then, decided to leave travelling until the afternoon after we've assessed the risks.
  18. I'm lurking round this thread as Irelands weather can be a foretaste of things to come. I live NW region of England and have a trip planned to N Wales tomorrow, but this will hinge on conditions nearer the time. Hope you all stay safe.
  19. Beautiful day here too at the moment, just dipped into the Ireland thread, all seems calm there for now.
  20. 2° according to my tablet app, but feels colder, had the back door wide open earlier to clean my cat flap. Heating having an extra half hour blast.
  21. Just fish and chips for me in Llandudno, giving the mushy peas a miss. A house brick in each pocket too for the walk on the Orme.
  22. Strong gusts and hail woke me at 3.25am, lay awake for a little while anticipating a flash of lightning and a clap of thunder, but didn't hear anything. Wind and rain at the moment. Looks like I'm in for a very windy few days in llandudno at the weekend.
