Where in Stockport are you.

 

I'm in Cheadle Heath.

 

I work on Bird Hall Lane, not far away. 

 

Live down Matlock way though, so the journey home later is going to be even more interesting than the journey in this morning

[Snowy L]

FINALLY snowing here

[tedmus]

Any reports from Cheshire at the moment

 

C.S

I'm at work in Lostock Gralam and nothing here at all.

[pip22]

[Paul90]

Sky's full of it.

[griff74]

It's such a shame that now it is finally properly snowing, so much that it can't not stick, but it will all be gone by the time I finish work today looking at the weather reports!

Heavy snow again in Manchester,

[i luv snow]

Temps have dropped from 2oC a few hours ago to 0oC in Mancs now, snow stopped for ten minutes but now started again. Lots of ppn heading in from Irish sea, hopefully it continues to make it here (and other parts of region!)

[WorsleySnow]

Stopped for the last 20 mins in Oldham, crashes all over the place in the Town Centre, I thought Albanians and Romanians would be able to drive in the snow. Most buses now stopped and College in Town centre been closed.......all for a bout 1" of snow.............crazy!!

[Miamay]

Snow showers arent long or heavy enough to get a good covering.

[Alikazam]

Half an hours heavy snow was enough to shut the school I work at. Snow day!

[cheshire snow]

Just getting word that Man airport is closing for runway clearance

FINALLY snowing here

Where about in Liverpool are you?

[Paul90]

So much better than last years crapfest.

[chiffer]

Roads are very slow now here, didn't expect so much snow on the roads!

[Stratocumulus perlucidus]

They are here. Had an hour of hail/grauple. That is the foundation for this snow

[gearbox100]

Is that low Still due this evening or has that vanished now?

Round 2...on it's way!

 

 

Manchester airport suspending take off's/landings while runway is being cleared...

[Thunderbolt_]

No point going into sixth form. We will just be thrown in a room for two hours, just to be told we can go home. The Metrolink has also stopped, the roads are treacherous and it's starting to snow again as I speak.

 

Might as well stay at home with a cup of tea and some McVites chocolate digestives!

[March Blizzard]

Getting worried now, hasn't snowed for 5 minutes...

[Snow free zone]

To call what we've had in Preston overnight and this morning "snow" is a bit of an insult really.  There is a slight covering of hail/snow on the grass and slush on the roads etc. But i suppose it did snow so thats the 3 year drought broken at least.

 

This really was the ideal set up for us to get snow here, looks like the wind modification of the temps was just too great for us here at least. 

[Jan]

Snow showers arent long or heavy enough to get a good covering.

I know, and they keep alternating to sleety stuff, which doesn't help

[frosty ground]

Slight thaw here in chadderton

Round 2...on it's way!

Looks like we are slight to far north to be caught under it for a reasonable amount of time.
