Looks like all we've had is freezing rain like most others. All things coated in ice. Will have to walk to work later.

granada / itv going for sleet tonight right to the coast, no changes in their forecasts...snow for the pennines

If this is going to happen its got to start shifting west pretty soon. To my eyes all precip seems to be heading south to our east.

theres alot of ppn going on east of the hills. It must be the moisture coming

in from the north sea. i dont think they ever coming across to us.

cuz the hills just blocked it.

whats meant to happen is that colder air moves in, and rain would turn to sleet and snow to the south of the region before clearing, i dont entirely think the precip is meant to be coming from the east. However we have a streamer in effect over the irish sea...colder air to undercut the warmer air where ever that happens...anyway this show it quite nicely http://www.sat24.com/?culture=en also you might want to use the raintoday radar, updates every 15 mins instead of every 30/40 mins from the met... http://www.raintoday.co.uk

funny you say that because the band of rain in the west is orientating nw - se..cant see it? use sat24

when i refer to a streamer, i am talking a long band of rain clouds extending from the nw to the se. it as been gradually tilting more and more to a nw - se direction, been watching it for a little while now and using the sat you can see just that. as to if there is precip on it but you would think so

I wouldnt even look at PPN to our west... the flow is due to start pushing everything westwards anyway hence why the main PPN band is moving SSW now.

Haha, can't believe you're looking West. It's a complete non event for us whilst the south east gets pasted AGAIN.

I'm giving weather a rest for a while now, as I really cannot be bothered with all of these let downs.

I think if anything, it's going to be from the north with a disturbance in the flow in the form of a trough or small low, odds are slim to none and it's likely that winter is over now for the north west.

So for now. Adios.

Talk about how bad this winter is how many of you remember winters 1988-89 and 1991-92?

Saw some snow during mid-late November 1988 but then saw no snow until late February! There was hardly any frost in that period neither. If you love frost and snow, it was horrendous. Saw more snow in April 1989 than during December 1988 and January 1989 combined

1991-92 saw hardly any snow.

88/89 was the only one worse than this. During 91/92, if my fading memory serves me right, then I recall 3-4 falls of snow that season.
