getting heavier here and seems the band has slowed the cold front may give it a kick

veryvery light small flakes of snow just started

gaz not 100% but think its because the dew points are so low and theres not much moisture around thats why theres no warnings for ice last night because theres no moisure for ice

Has anyone noticed bbc weather have stopped mentioning rain for our region tomorrow just see 12.30am forcast all snow event atleast 10 hours snow

It will slow down as it reaches east ireland as it bumps into the denser colder air

looking at the 5pm still picture there seems alot of precipitaion still to come through

who ever is tweeting for them is pretty much using canned responces probably work experince kid who when you asked the question just click the button and sent reply at the most a think all they done was click on the warnings page read that it said updated at noon and that was it. Bet he didnt ask anyone in the no Anyway whether its changed or no diane oxbury kust ramped it up and the graphics showed snow for between 8 to 10 hours lol

i would say manchester will get hit between 12 and 2pm im a bit like the met office im not gonna commit to anything else in the time frame all could change lol

steve honest i cannot prove it but it has

in the northwest region thread people have noticed the amber warning has been shifted about 30 miles west but on met site they have not mentioned they have updated it but its deffo moved west.

guys the amber warning has 100% moved west slightly i live in stockport and it wasnt over me when i checked around 4pm it was skirting east manchester ant the most its deffo put more of south manchester and cheshire into the amber. But they have not shown they have updated it.Sneaky buggers lol The met are mad

ye just let dogs out and while having a fag noticed the odd flake in the wind and i mean odd flake guess i can class it as a falling snow day lol but nothing showing on radar

looks like pennines are getting pasted

Anyone got a radar thats working

looking at the warnings the met must expect the stuff over north wales to move east because north wales hasnt got a warning so looks like we could have a decent event in the south of the region

turbot bank buoy just south west of wales has just done 105mph that cannot be right

Them taffs never seem to be very acurate or they never are when snows forcast

the band in cumbria has deffo sank south a little but its supposed to stall soon

Think this band north of us is not expected to go much further south before it stalls and fizzles out but where ever it stalls will have a good covering lol cheese rice you beat me to it lol

For what ever reason theres something afoot we are not aware of, my local bbc nwest didnt even mention thursday they didnt even mention stormy weather nor that they are uncertain nothing zilch. which seems in my head to put anywhere north of birmingham out of the risk area for wind but i think they didnt go as far as thursday because of the snow risk there keeping that under there hats at the momment . Personally i think theres still a strong posability of strong winds south of birmingham.Theres got to be something in it, Lets see if my 6th sense is right come friday

Ecm out till 72h seems to of split friday storm in 3 doesnt look anything nasty at the mo

although its not gone exactly the ecm way i believe ecm was onto something and gfs may gradually come around

gfs18z looks like it might do something different with thurs/fridays storm much less intense at this stage

im not saying thurs/fridays storm will be a non event but if we look at mon/tues storm it seems that over the weekend it has been pulled further n/w on every run and has lost a little of its intensity i think same might happen with the thursday storm

seems elevation is the key tonight
