    Some apps say low of 1c here tonight others going for -4c ...if skies remain clear which looks to be the case I'll edge my bets towards the latter.

    Aye I suppose if we're no burried in snow then nice sunny crisp mornings like this is a second best...certainly beats mild wet crap. Correct about not seeming to have snowy breakdowns anymore, instead it's just a slow creeping of milder temps to mix out the cold. Still we've got the fabled beasterly to look forward too...or at least you would think so reading the mod thread.

    Looks like that's it for the snow chances for awhile...a slow creeping advance of milder conditions for us in the west.... might a cloudy high. Not the most inspiring stuff weather wise. Had a few dustings but still way short of my foot fall deep of snow witnessed 3 times between 2009-11... nothings come near it since.

    In the 'light dusting' club... just to far east for this phase of snow showers. Still -1 so feeling wintry if nothing else.

    Busted flush here...a few more rogue showers overnight has left trace amounts on receptive surfaces i.e cars, grassy areas but the snow shovel can still hold onto its 12 year hibernation in the shed (last used Dec 2010). High pressure the next weather theme.

    Mind the gap... think I'm in it now...a slushy convering still in place from an earlier 5 min dusting...Cheshire gap looking potent but most of the action out to the west.

    First sprinkling of the much sought-after crystallised ice grains here as left a nice covering...some more potent showers lined up to the north west.
  8. dodge
    Showers seem to be losing a little of their intensity as the move inland but it's early doors yet, some more organised bands may form into the night. Hopefully they become quite widespread to affect more areas later.

    Ice day today, mist & low cloud never lifted. Temps already dropping. Fingers crossed I see at least a few seconds of falling dandruff tonight.... what falls should readily stick

    Ah... I've missed you wet sleety slush... hope you turn a bit more white & fluffy in the coming days...won't hold my breath.
  11. dodge
    The chance of any wintry stuff here seems to be in the early hours as the band of rain/sleet/snow moves back south but I'm guessing it will be a wet looking slushy mix at best. Hardly inspiring...truth be told I hope it stays crisp, dry & sunny over the next few days the grounds around here are a soggy mess... thankfully this appears predominantly the forecast ahead.

    More variations on a theme of wetness at the moment. Don't seem to be going a day without some downpour turning up at some point. Winds gusty. Not getting my hopes up for anything wintery wonderland next week...might jus be that miserable transition of grey wet slush before it melts into a sorry looking icy cold puddle.

    Yep showers piling in off the Irish Sea with a North westerly flavour just to make it feel cold but not cold enough for the illusive white stuff. Supposed to be getting more polar maritime influence into next week but odds on it will be watered down to wet slush for all but the highest of ground.

    The Wet, Wet, Wet theme continues (but at least it won't haunt us for 16 weeks!)...and we now have a warning out Tuesday ... UK weather warnings WWW.METOFFICE.GOV.UK Met Office UK weather warnings for rain, snow, wind, fog and ice. Choose your location to keep up to date with local weather warnings.

    Wow a nice day ahead for once and mostly dry and sunny...don't know what to do with myself... I'm sure I'll find some inspiration somewhere. Quite a bit of rain in recent days, grounds quite soggy in off the beaten track. Happy New Year and all the best for 2023.

    A truly dreadful wet phase at the moment...heavy rain for past few hours, slow to clear but will do in next hour or so...and the only break we are going to get before tomorrow's rain arrives is the period most of us will be in the land of nod. Hate when the weather sets up like this.
  17. dodge
    We had some insulting wet globules of sleet mixed in with the heaviest of rain this morning but it's mostly plain cold rain here now...frequent showers streaming in as well so any breaks are fleeting and quickly filled in. Forecast looks truly dreadful for rest of week, lots of heavy rain symbols on the apps.

    Yep no shadow now it's cold heavy rain...just setting up camp and stalling in our region. Sounds about right. Darren Bett talking about a brief cold tease on Boxing day then he ended with a smirky smile on his face ".....before it turns milder" Only one place to go for the cold fix Winter storm in US and Canada will bring frostbite within minutes WWW.BBC.CO.UK Dangerously low temperatures are a serious threat, even in major cities around the US and Canada.

    Just been out to shops...nothing wintry here but the purest definition of "cold" rain you can get without it being sleet. Suffice to say my pace was quick to get back home.
  21. dodge
    Standard when anything comes from the south west. Everything being evaporated into nothing just south of east of Manchester, so barely produces nothing here. My attention will probably turn to that monster storm due to hit parts of North East US next week in the run up to Christmas. Could be newsworthy. We'll be green, grey and wet again by the time we put a little something out for Santa.

    My amber warning was yesterday when I was out early doing deliveries, black ice almost everywhere, vans wheels skidding and lots of slips. Today probably too low for the amber to affect me but probably treacherous over the tops. Last vestiges of this quite decent cold snap (for cold not snow) before the dreaded mild south westerlies take over. Pinch of salt applied for anything more than D+6 away. The models are up and down with each other at present.
  23. dodge
    Still frosty here at the moment but only -1c nothing like the harsh frosts of previous days. Let's see what today's slush-fest brings...wonder if we can scrape just a smidge of falling white flakes before the transition to mild begins in earnest.
  24. dodge
    Probably just about crept above zero today but now going into negative territory....we've lost our truly Baltic northerly though and the cold hasn't felt as slap-in-you-face stinging like it has past few days... Alexander Park in Oldham still frozen over...but will probably undergo rapid melt in next few days. Alex Park Ice.mp4

    -6.., pretty galling that this impressive cold spell could get shunted away without much protest and bit of slushy wintry mix but that's the way it's looking for the weekend.
