Current predicted radar at 21:10 .. if it turns to snow like MET is currently showing by 10pm we should be in a great position.

Wow setting in early. Bodes well

[WillinGlossop]

Temp on the slide was 10c now 6c heavy shower... 

[Backtrack]

There’s no rain left!! Heavy wet snow!

[Backtrack]

This could be epic! 3 hours early!!!

[Steve_Alltami]

Heavy wet snow here to your southwest. In Gwernaffield, NE Wales at 800ft and heavy wet snow which is settling. You guys are in a great spot later.

[Backtrack]

Those radar echoes are insane. This could be absolutely incredible for our region! This is such a weird and unique setup. Will we finally hit the jackpot tonight?!

[Snow free zone]

After a brief respite its raining heavily again here.

[pip22]

Like I say couple of weeks ago slow moving weather systems are the best if it comes to snow.

Just rain here still, surprised its not sleety yet.

[Chris.R]

3.4°C. Heavy rain with occasional massive partially melted coagulated golfball sized snowflakes. Going as expected or slightly quicker than I expected.

[Joe Snow]

GMP & Cheshire Police declaring a major incident. BBC NWT showing flooding across Northwich Marina. Never seen it so bad here surface water flooding everywhere many footpaths v difficult and grass like sludge. 
 

In terms of snow could well be some flash Met Office warnings if it settles.

I’ve been saying it would be good for days.

So so sad with all the flooding really feel for all affected 

[itsnowjoke]

No rain here now

[SP1986]

No snow here yet, doesn't feel cold enough yet somehow.. but there is snow falling across the river in Halkyn so the level is definitely lowering

Leasowe Station is going to be under water too, as it often is. North Wirral plain is a complete write off Im guessing. I wonder how Biddy Tesco is doing too

Met office don’t think the temp will drop anymore than it has now though. That would be nasty if that’s true. 

[Chris.R]

Torrential rain and snow mix

They are wrong it will drop at least another 2° by 10 pm.
