Yeah something is keeping it there.  Noticed last night it seemed to have stall line north of lancaster. 

It has even  pushed  further back into Cumbria

Whatever it is lets hope it pushes further this way and give us all a dumping.  The windspeeds and directions on radar shows a disturbance around  hull aswell.

Pouring down with snow in Blackpool, big flakes and settling 

[Stratocumulus perlucidus]

its all intensifying over west of the region.

Just started snowing lightly here in Maghull, L31. Not much of note overnight/this morning. Had a bit of a slushy covering briefly early morning. Let’s hope we get a covering from this. We’ve missed all the action so far .

My gut feeling says it will die out and/or precipitation shadow effect if it head this way. I'm not holding my breath

What do you when you can see your model is going wrong but  you have to use it for your the graphics? Is this the 3rd time in a month the met office has been caught by not being nimble footed?

Brilliant! glad i have took a break nothing to see in Manchester.

[carl1980]

Wet snow in Kirkby

[Mark_p]

Interesting to see the precipitation band on the coast. Unusual North East direction. Shame about the Manchester rain shadow you'd think those pennines were the himalayas sometimes hah l. 

[Miamay]

Some nice sized flakes. Just nice to see a bit of snow falling at last. 

[damianslaw]

Again radar would suggest we have had continuous snow past few hours, just on the edge of pink, yet skies are bright. I have never trusted the radar as little before. Can we push some snow our way, the number of times we seem to be on the boundary is beyond bad luck now..getting silly.

Light wet snow here but too much rain in it to stick, 2.1°C. Heavy snow apparently in Crosbyy.

[Geordiesnow]

Heavy snow here but wet in nature so will never settle in a million years. 

[russwirral]

Seems the Radar is fading over the irish sea and rememerging over Cheshire/merseyside.... maybe has something left in it ?

 

Feels bitter out

[SnowThunder]

Moderate snow but not sticking here
