Met office obviously aren’t following the Euro4 as they say the heaviest snow will be on the northern edge, if you read the warning instead of panicking!
The Mersey seemed to fuel it earlier. The new Mersey Gateway was treacherous earlier. Wasn't gritted, I saw a crash and I almost made that crash number 2. No brakes, skidded everywhere.
There's a big band of PPN out in the Irish Sea heading right for us. The Met Office and BBC graphics showed a band of snow across the region from 3-6am. This is possibly it. It's expanding every radar update. Lots of energy out there tonight.
