Saw this on the mod discussion thread.  Don't know what it is, but for sure I don't like those eyes.

Now that's some evil weather on the way

The bbc forecast showed snow not rain for the Pennines so fingers crossed  

[Slidergate '17]

Interesting...

[Had Worse]

Also interesting is the BBC NW weather for tomorrow and Thomaz Shaffer on Thursday

[Day 10]

BBC forecast more bullish on snow for thurs, I still reckon that can upgrade further.

He's trying to emulate Boris Johnson.

[Day 10]

You can clearly see the cold fighting back.

For once we want a few nudges south but not many!

[Snow free zone]

Local forecast BBC mentions snow tomorrow on high ground, possibly at low levels further east. Then same again on thurs, but was very short on detail. All a bit vague.  One of those forecasts where there was a general waft of the arm towards the screen .... in other words they are still trying to fill in the details

[Day 10]

Rinse & repeat on the Friday too, again a few nudges south required.

[Chris.R]

Tomorrow. 

Above 200 m snow.

150–200 m snow to sleet.

100–150 M sleet to snow to rain.

50–100 m rain to sleet to rain.

If precip more intense Snow can get down to 100 m and sleet  to sea-level.

The earlier the precip the better before solar input can raise the temperatures; -1 – -3 overnight.

[Had Worse]

This is different to the local maps.

3 days to go, as long as it doesn't end up in Wales....

Plenty of opportunity for some parts of the North to get a real dumping over the next few days but I think for most we’ll look back at a mixture of missed opportunities and sheer bad luck.

I’ll keep the shovel handy just in case but somehow I think the I will be shovelling far more potential than actual snow.

not that I can go anywhere when I’ve actually moved the snow

In theory, if your trying to help and clear the way, you can go anywhere with that shovel.
