Mainly on the west side of the city Rob. Temperature has dropped here from 0.0 to -0.4 and we have what I would call sleet.

[snowingtequila]

So does that imply you think I am stupid.

Maybe I need to brush up on my humorous antidotes.

No! Just not that stupid? I think a few people might need a few antidotes if their rain doesn't turn to snow

i think we should say its over for here, and if we get anything, and thats a giant 'if' then its a bonus...met might be right with the heavy rain coz certainly here its looking more and more like what we are going to get unless something major happens in the next couple of hours

[guvnor22002]

getting heavier here with much bigger flakes

[weather eater]

Thats Manchester for you

[martinj2]

Weird-just come back from Tesco where there was iceicles on the roof-yet still it rains

[frostbitten]

Amazing how a few miles can make such a massive difference, still freezing rain here in st helens

[weatherobsuk]

That'd be good. The slower this front goes, the more precip (whatever it's got left within it) it can dump over the region aswell as allowing that cold front behind to introduce more colder air behind it and bring in yet more snowfall to the Northwest and Pennines. A quicker moving front = less accumulation on surfaces. So far it's going to how the FAX were forecasting things albeit with the warm front giving a little less than expected.
