its tailed off now but a nice little burst has given a sugar dusting over surfaces. See what the next 24 hour brings.

getting heavier now. EDIT: Well heavy!

started off as sleet initally but has quickly turned to snow and starting to settle.

Wintry mix with the odd wet flake has started here now. Edit: Snowing

Absolutely pelting it down with massive flakes

Bigger flakes now. Starting to settle.

Nice moderate to light snow here. Although smallish flakes at this moment in time.

Snow has started here

Fingers crossed people!

Just got back from work. Been stuck on the A56 bypass at Accrington for about an hour because of the weather. The Police shut the road in both directions due to the snow and multiple vehicle accidents. several gritters/ploughs went past whilst we sat in stationary traffic. The road towards the M65 was in a real treacherous state. Snowfall late last night which stuck to cars but nothing else. Got up about 5.30am for work and there was nothing. Opened my front door at 6am to go to work and it was like crazy!! Absolute whiteout everywhere covered and snow/hail flying everywhere in a driving wind. All main roads covered and drive into work to start with was tricky this morning. On/off snow/hail showers all day but just had another real intense snow shower which has covered everything again and had lightening earlier on. Although every snow shower we have had has covered everything it hasn't stayed around for that long! Are we hopeful of more snow tonight?
