[UV-RAY]

Moderate snow that lasted for ten minutes, leaving a light dusting. I'm happy as I wasn't expecting anything.

[ISAAC]

I think there is a streamer going to hit in bout half an hour. Whoever get stuck under it will get a few hours of what ever falls

Yep. Looks to slide just south of stoke

[cfallon]

Looked at the streamer on rain today, am I looking at it correctly as it appears to be heading over Manchester?

[Stratocumulus perlucidus]

The one i see is north of me at the moment but the iso bars might push it down to me and bt

Its the mass of ppn I mentioned earlier that was being dragged in this direction from the north westerly flow and continues to do so... hope they dont die off before they come in becuase the trajectory looks nice to me!

Will it drag in colder air aswell? And will convection play game aswell

[Backtrack]

i know just seems mad lol

There's no way you have 2 inches of snow (5cm)

We have a sugar dusting.

[Julian]

Its been hammering down here now for 20 mins or so, put down over 1 1/2 cms so far. Very unexpected.

That streamer stretching from Scotland is in line with us.

1.3C, DP 1.2C, so any showers will probably be rain now.

Conditions don't spell snow to me right now.

If the shower is light, it will rain. It needs to be heavy for evaporative cooling.

[Cecil Hogmanay Melchett]

drizzle,game over.

even the bins given up the ghost.

[Backtrack]

If you live South of Runcorn, then expect an absolute pasting in about 20 minutes.

Heavy snow starting again.

[Weather-history]

1st snow cover of the season under Met Office rules.

Can see anvil to the NW of my location.

A mass of preciptation off the North Wales coast. The hills of NE Wales could be in for a good covering.
