I guess??

[frosty ground]

you skating on thin ice my freind....which ia more than i can do with my green fields

Very Good LOL

[SparkleS]

5 degrees here sunny and cloudy at the same time! Quite a pleasant day....it was snowing quite a bit last night but i dont know how long that lasted as i went to bed around midnight and it was still snowing then, big flakes but not sticking, was disappointed to wake to absolutely nothing and quite a mild day lol with nothing on the radar at all..... I knew i should have ignored all the forecasts meto and that as it never happens! Always a nowcast out of the blue for us, infact the more snow it forecasts the less likely we see a flake, called opposites lol

2c here feels bitterq

[Cheshire Freeze]

If the current GFS comes off we'll just be perpetuating the dominant pattern of the last 5 or 6 years. Early spring warmth. Stuck in a rut well and truly with that. Oh what I wouldn't give for a snowy March then some decent April convection!

[cheshire snow]

According to the forecast wednesday so called event is a very quick snow event followed by haevy rain

as an IMBY prospective i am not in the warning zone,and for the first time i am not bothered one bit.

C.S,

Not sure about wednesday, but you never know - we did well out of the last cold-to-mild breakdown. Not my favourite setup though because it quickly turns to slush/melt snow, so you have to be quick to enjoy what you have while it lasts. I'm ready for spring too. If we're not going to get any snow, then I don't mind a cracking start to spring and the last I think two out of three Easters have been pretty glorious to be honest. Easily better than the summer that followed.

C.S,

Just as well, I doubt you'll even see snow Wednesday..... Very much a transient event for everyone east and North of Manchester...... Do not be surprised to see the snow risk moved north!

Speak for yourself. I have every reason to expect COLD rain to rain for this part of the NW.

Sparkle - i have now lost count of the number of times you have had snow this winter when its been nothing other than rain/sleet here. Really goes again to show how much as little as 5/10 miles can influence what the weather does. You are even further west than i am !!
