[Spurry]

Flakes are a bit lighter now, i'm gonna go to bed as i have to be for work tomorrow, i hope i wake up to a decent covering but i'll not expect it...!

[Backtrack]

Fell bad for you, no fun when everyone is getting snow and you're not!!

Tried to *like* your post, but I've run out! Still laughing!!!!!

Hahahahaa, no problem. I even amuse myself sometimes.

[R.P. McMurphy]

Quite bemused how some are claiming heavy snow as looking at all radars there isn't any heavy ppn around!!! We're under LIGHT and MODERATE for higher areas!!!

SW of the region:

Currently more energy being injected around the Northwich area, expect another bout of much heavier, thicker snow imminently.

[feb1991blizzard]

Not yet...need it to be heavier but looking good all the same

Yes i knlow, i doubt it, its just that its a personal mission of mine as a result of 09, i missed out as i was in salford a thie time and i vowed to one day avenge it, if its the last thing i do!!

There's Hawkhurst Head (just over 1000ft) behind that lot, and that's with the filter on. Having the filter off earlier and the pics turned out light-wise nothing but an orange hue.

nice job. good stuff

[feb1991blizzard]

A little bit ropey now though, slowed down, looking at the radar though, this could still be a memorable event, not talking ridiculous standard but could still get a fair few inches.

We could get there it's meant to snow right up I til lunch time tomorrow ! Just need the heavier stuff for a few hours ( not been greedy) lol

[jam2010]

Getting heavier getting excited now z

[wysiwyg]

Pennine snow shield still blocking the more N and W parts of the region. Really feel for the guys in the Ribble estuary and Fylde Coast areas. Nothing much here for me either but at least i got a bit on Friday. Hope the more easterly stuff gets over to you guys

snap. all good

[Weather-history]

Interestingly I can see the moon from time to time, so the clouds are fairly thin, if I can glimpse the moon at times.

[Penrith Snow]

Snowing in Penrith and settling, the radar shows random precipitation growth across the County ahead of the main band even in Coastal West Cumbria.

Thicker flakes coming down yet again, good stuff.

[Rossyvalley]

Snowing in Rossendale though could do with it being heavier!!
