Well what a nice surprise.....snow started falling at about 2am this morning as I was heading to bed, and was pretty intense, still snowing at the moment, albeit lightly & is pretty foggy, worse than shown in the pictures; seems to be covering the whole area now. Theres quite a few inches in some parts. Im just wondering if this is the end or is there anymore to come?

Thanks Rustynailer! Just been doing a bit of research for any steam enthusiasts..the train was a Cotton Mill Express. The 12 carriages are being pulled by 2 classic locomotives - a Black Five and a Standard Class Four. The train left Manchester Victoria traveling to Huddersfield, Sowerby Bridge, Blackburn, Bolton and return....although it was to cold to wait for it coming back again! hehe

Just a few pictures from my morning walk around Dovestones Reservoir in Greenfield Saddleworth & a few lucky ones I managed to take of a steam train passing through Diggle this morning......it looked just sensational and really powered itself up for its climb over the moors to Huddersfield. Hope you like, sorry for there being so many, I took loads and couldnt decide which ones to get rid of! Nice to see the snow in other parts this morning aswell, Ste

Snow on the way? April 5th onwards cold snap
Storm Animal replied to Storm Animal's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
That bloomin happened when I was out walking, they were pretty good sized ones too, stinging my face, and even got in my coat pockets! Grrrrr!! Anyway, quite a few showers here today, no lying snow here, but from my window I can see that Bleaklow Hill & the Snake Pass have lying snow...only a dusting on the tops, but looks quite beautiful in the dazzling sunshine -

Having quite a few wintry showers here now, definately more frequent, but glorious spring sunshine inbetween. Temp is suprisingly high 6.7oC.....unless my thermometer is on the blink -

Must be great being in your location, you get to experience the cold conditions first, whilst we have an extra day or two of warmer conditions......are you the most northerly of UK Netweather members? -

Storm Animal replied to Storm Animal's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Thanks for that NorthernRab, I was surprised to see it looking so snowless, but im sure it wont be for long, you can look 30 mins later and it can be a white out! lol. I think the main prospect for any lying snow will be the overnight period tonight & tomorrow night, so its a case of early bed to be up early in the morning, or do like I did this morning, wake up and find its all gone! -

Thanks for that James, Ive not long woken up, and found some wintry stuff on my window that was melting, unsure if it had been hail or snow. Cold has certainly arrived here, temp down to 3.5oC. Have looked on all the usual weather cams, cant see much snow over the highlands, but certainly lying snow on the North Pennines around Nenthead (pic below) -

Oh that will bring back memories of Easter Saturday night into Sunday, think half of netweather was awake and online that night, it was pretty exciting......although knackering! Whens the next cold spell after this one then? hehe -

Storm Animal replied to Will storm's topic in Archived weather photography area
Lovely pics, great ones that show the intensity at which the snow was coming down! Not a day to be stood at that bus stop I say! -
Currently 8.9oC & overcast. Had some really strong gale force winds about 13:30 with hail/ wintry showers. Winds now eased off and showers less frequent

Well that looks pretty promising.......fingers crossed! -
After just hearing that there is possibly snow on the way for some parts of the UK this coming weekend, which seems wierd with temperatures on the rise & expected to make 18oC in some parts! Anybody know where the snow is most likely etc. I did say after the last Easter wintry spell that I had a feeling cold snowy weather would return......and Ive been having withdrawl symptoms of cold ramping and staying up all night waiting for wintry weather to arrive......bring it on...... Your thoughts please...
