If anyone remembers, there were a couple of nights of severe fog just before the december cold spell.
-
If i remember correctly during the December cold spell we were watching the showers coming in from the east and very few made it across the pennines.
The winds turned to the north a short time later bringing us snow via Irish sea streamers on 21st dec then a narrow band of fairly intense snow moved up from the south on the evening of the 23rd.
Prior to this were we looking at similar model outputs to the ones showing on the charts now? (if this makes any sense!)
-
coming down thick and fast and starting to stick to most surfaces except roads!
-
Anyone got any thoughts on snow potential for the first part of this week, say from mon afternoon to weds? Granada weather say things could get wintry for the rush hour tomorrow, and gfs showing a band of snow moving down on tues afternoon and a band of snow moving up during weds, it shows the temps to be hovering between 3-5c but not sure of dew points.

That was an awesome tornado outbreak 26-04-91 f5 twister. I watch this footage regular, absolutely awesome.
-
It was tiny yet so powerful, it stripped a small tree completely, luckily it didnt hit the car or the consequences could have been a lot worse, it seems the only damage to the vehicle was a cracked windscreen.
-
Anyone any thoughts on tues night/weds regarding the possible snow event here in the north west?
-
woo hoo!!!
My favourite thread.
As soon as there is the potential for storms i will be posting on here, anyway - HAPPY CUMULONIMBUS WATCHING!
-
I too love storms at night, we had one here last july in the early hours constantly lighting the room up and amazing to watch. A level 3 estofex warning would be nice for a change.
-
Yes i too remember feb 96 awesome snowfall must have been 1 foot level snow at sea level.
-
Hi Mark, I was just about to post the same. Amazing!!!

I will see tomorrow morning at 6am what the car thermometer reads, i would think at least -8, especially if the skies stay clear and we have the added bonus of snowcover.
-
-6 here now dew point -8
thats very cold very early for the coast, how low can it go. -
I noticed that it can only really come from the NE i would have thought, still anything is possible as this mornings episode proved.
-
Was really hoping for some more tonight here in Blackpool but it seems that any snow that tries to come over to us from the East get's broken up along the way. We always share our snow with the east!
Yes im hoping for some more, keep watching the radar, we have done really well for lying snow on the coast this early in the season.
-
Persistant snow this morning, gave a good 2 -3 inches at least. Has anyone tried to ride a pushbike in these conditions? its hard work il tell you especially with a heavy bag of mail on the front
. Anyway hope everyone got their fair share and it looks like all eyes on the precipitation heading in from the NE.

If this was the day before the Feb 1996 event, and we had all the models back then as we do now, i wonder how much upgrading / downgrading would have happened prior to it? If i remember correctly that event wasn't meant to last too long, then it stalled and nearly made history in the North West??
