North West England Regional Discussion - January 17th 2013. 12z onwards

[nodrog]

blackpoolweather.info are talking about it on there site, don't think they are in comp' with netweather. Plus the odd flurry is skirting us now here on the Fylde Coast.

[Liam J]

Perhaps things are looking up for the region! That developing low really could hammer some parts as the fronts begin to wrap around the circulation.

[Chess01]

Snowing in stoke

[SparkleS]

snow reported clayton-le-woods, school kids shouted ''ITS SNOWING!!''

They not well educated then?? Lol its not snowing here!! Hehe

[Munchermark]

Setting ourselves up for another downgrade later, I wouldnt get to excited we've already seen how quick these forecasts can change

It seems to have appeared out of the blue late this morning, maybe due to the heavier precipitation over Ireland?

[simon29]

is it an upgrade for me in blackburn, liams the man to ask

[Darren Bown]

Nothing here ATM either and I'm only a few junctions down the M61.

Indeed it is, Blackburn should do rather well out of this if the 12z verifies.

[wysiwyg]

Wysi - where you been buddy?

Hey Coast

Based on my last few posts - the pub I think!

I think you know I only come out when there is enough pink on the charts to guarantee my wig will sparkle in the snow!!

[Snow free zone]

Samaritans put me on hold when i told them there'd been an upgrade ..... have asked them to ring back at 3pm tomorrow.

[paul12345]

Very stressful this.

[Osamasbinsledgin]

still light snow/grains, but sticking readily as temps drop

[Alex95]

It'd be nice if the 12z came off, although Newcastle would get far more snow than the Lake District from that easterly so I'd still be missing out! Where's my 1996 blizzard??

[martinj2]

we now have light snow!

Yeah Liverpool City Centre-the odd flake mixed with fine rain/grauple

[SnowObsessor90]

It's snowing here too now

[Liam J]

Well the 12z GFS & UKMO-GM both say yes to an upgrade for the whole region, looking far far better north to south than it was this morning

Everyone can be pleased so far this evening with potentially another blizzard for the start of next week!

Do you think the Met Office will upgrade their warnings from this Liam.

[Liam J]

Only if it comes with snow

[chicken soup]
