Just what are the perfect conditions to guarantee snow? Can anyone please tell me what weather conditions are perfect to guarantee snow? What wind directions and temperatures should I be looking out for? I live in North West Cumbria a town called Whitehaven right on the coast. I always thought that if the wind were coming from the North East it was the 1st part of the recipe for snow, but the wind came in from Ireland this time bringing with it the snow. But this never made it to our coast, or it went straight over? So can anyone please give me the perfect recipe that could guarantee us snow? What wind direction, what tempreture? “ Is the saying true that it as to get warmer than + 1 before it will snow” The only thing I notice more times than not is that the snow comes down from Scotland either side of us, over the Irish sea and down over Penrith. Anyhow any information would be appreciated. Thanks
