snowing lightly now after some hail a light covering on pavements and rooftops now.
-
Can confirm light drizzle here in Blackpool, although there was a brief snow flurry before.
-
Just watching granada news and its snowing outside you could see it through studio window.
-
Just had a very light snow flurry lasted for the best part of a minute. At least it was of snow.
-
Car thermometer registering -6 in blackpool, car been staitionary since 5pm, dont know if this is a realistic reading or not.
-
Yes agree with you there, it lasted on the ground for the best part of a week, helped along of course by the snowfall on the 23rd.
-
Yes good idea snowdrifter, infact i work in st.Annes as a postman and on 21st dec when we got the first snowfall it ground our postal service to almost a halt.
-
You're right it is awful i'll have to move further inland to see some decent snow, everywhere in the north west seems to be reporting snow but here.
-
Happy new year everyone! Not been up long lol! can anyone tell me roughly what time the ppn is likely to hit the North West tomorrow?
-
Should start here then soon.
-
The band seems to be definatly moving east now and fairly slow moving too so fingers crossed and lamp posts at the ready.
-
Yes and hopefully bring us some more snow.
-
Definatly cold enough for snow now temps and dew points below freezing, all the snow here has frozen solid and to add to that the gritters havent been out all day. Anything that does fall will surely stick like glue.
-
The bottom end of that line of showers in the Irish sea seems to slowly be pivoting eastwards to me, anyone else notice this?
-
Those showers over the Irish sea are heading NE to the north of the Fylde coast towards Cumbria, wonder if i will catch a snow shower later, we got a good dumping of snow this morning which has now frozen over.

Mark.C replied to grab my graupel's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
so do you think there is a trend towards warmer conditions as we head towards new year? GFS is obviously unsure, i cant make head nor tail of this lot. -
Had a heavy but brief shower of rain/sleet about 30 mins ago, dont know what to expect tonight now.

North West England Cold Spell Discussion
Mark.C replied to shuggee's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Good evening, i too am hoping for some snow this weekend , the last decent snow to last a few days was feb 96, im not expecting anything like that during this cold spell but a couple of inches would be nice. -
Just seen 2 faint flashes way out at sea, starry skies here but checked radar and sure enough sferics out over Irish sea.
-
Had a good storm here this morning about 08.00, huge flash of lightning started as a bright ball out over the sea, then just seemed to explode in all directions, very bright as the clouds were black, then huge booming thunder followed almost immediately and torrential rain and hail and strong winds,lovely. Maybe a repeat tomorrow, storm chances still looking good!
-
Absolutley belting down here, no thunder as yet though.
-
no thunder or lightning here in Blackpool but very very heavy rain around 5.30, havent seen anything like it as far as i can remember, hopefully those red echoes around west Wales will head up this way and not lose intensity!
-
Estofex have issued a level 1 for most of England for tomorrow, could be an interesting day.
-
Tuesday and Thursday not looking too bad for a bit of convective activity, especially more so for Ireland and western parts of England, Wales and Scotland!!
