I always loved that saying 'spotty snow'! 

 

Unfortunately chance of snow on Merseyside is slim, as the air will be modified with a sea breeze.

C.S

 It means snow here and there, just a few flakes here and somewhere else. Also termed "A few flakes of snow blowing in the wind"

-1.7c and still falling slowly here in Bacup and after a very cold day the snow is still covering the areas which were shaded from the sun.

No signs of cloud moving in as yet so there's a good chance we could be looking at about -3c before the rain arrives and things start to warm up again.

To be honest, I can't see us getting much in the way of snow, even at our altitude but ice may well be a problem again in the morning.

 White out conditions.....Seriously though NAE is showing snow Tomorrow evening....hugh pinch of salt required though

Exactly. Just spotted that (no pun intended), on the met office website.

[Chris.R]

Unfortunately, I highly doubt we'll see anything on Merseyside tonight, although tomorrow evening does look interesting.

[Miamay]

Great will keep watching

Yes, I think evap cooling will play a big part if the precip is heavy enough.

Coldest temp here now we are currently on -2

[Chris.R]

Temp falling slowly again. Module south side of house 2.3°C, modune at north side of house 2.1°C.

[bridgechad]

bottomed out at -0.5oC and now back at 0oC.  

[Mokidugway]

Gone from -1to + 4.7 c in 2 hours rain cant be far off now ..

[Backtrack]

0.8C here still; icy rain may become a temporary problem depending on how quickly that bulk of PPN arrives, falling onto (near) frozen surfaces.

 

Some warmer air tied in with this front unfortunately, or we'd be looking at a nice snow event, pretty unusual considering it's coming from the north west, although at this time of year you can expect it with plenty of sea modification.  Back edge snow remains a possibility with the colder air catching up behind, although it'll be a minute amount..

 

Possibility also of some light snow showers tomorrow for a time after the front moves through, interesting.

[itsnowjoke]

Car starting to freeze over a little just been to Asda blahhh.

Hate food shopping especially when im hungry i buy to much.

[Chris.R]

temp rising very quickly.

[itsnowjoke]

Damn snow.Took ages to clear the stuff from the car this morning, the roads were like ice rinks and our drive is still covered in it.Roll on spring.Only kidding but it's amazing how much chaos such a small amount of snow caused around these parts.

Your a tease lol.I was laughing at her indoors outdoors this morning defrosting the car i did help eventually but she has one of those pink glove scrapers im not using that lol
