Boring

Hehe. Watching the radar this afternoon/eve has been like watching paint dry!

[swainclubber]

Snowing heavy in Hyde, East Manchester sticking now

fantastic. great news.

[Shaun L]

There is the odd bit of dandruff going past the lampost but barely noticeable.

[Brass_Monkeys]

We'll find out in the next couple of hours whether the Peaks and Pennines are going to be a barrier for those West of the hills. There's never usually a problem with weather fronts crossing the Pennines from West to East but when it comes to going East to West it's a different matter!

Yes alternates between light and moderate, been snowing for at least an hour and a half, slow old process edging North.

Are you 3C or above ?!

No, 1C with a minus few point.

Dew!

[burylad12]

light snow in bury

[greybing]

It looks like very light snow here,prelude to the the none event i'm sure.That snow to the south of the region sure has lost intensity and has fragmented.

[dodge]

Light snow falling here, and sticking to cars. Good sign. The precipitation has intensified rather than lose strength as it comes up against the Peak Districk areas.

[Chris Henderson]

Cheers, I'll bring the BBQ. Have you cleaned the pool?

[swainclubber]

flakes in with the ice pellets now

[R.P. McMurphy]

Starting to snow here, maybe the weather station means heavy snow! Skies gone pink

Unexpected but I think there's a LLC trying to develop (or has) to the south of the region with the PPN towards Sheffield making more of a westerly motion now, there I was looking South and not taking into account a quick loop check. Bodes well for us Pennine'rs with the same PPN maintaining intensity if not more the past 40 mins.

The batch coming from Sheffield and Lincolnshire looks good. I think it will cross the hills with relative ease.

[Brass_Monkeys]

So we have snow falling in and around the hillier areas

Now will it continue to spread into the rest of the region?

technically the radar is showing light ppn over most of Manchester City now so that has already crossed over the Snake Pass area

[Snowmad79]

Same as guys, light snow but much better than the dust we've been getting all week

[Bartlett Low]

Nothing here..I'm only 33m asl
